Generally, but it has some issues. I found the C-stick to be very uncomfortable with the lack of a cap, and you can't really press two face buttons at the same time unless one of them is A. The latter isn't usually a problem, but certain games, like the Arkham series, would be virtually unplayable. That there's only one shoulder button on one side is also pretty weird. The dual stage triggers are pretty neat, though, and the only other controller I've used with them is the Steam Controller, which has a pretty steep learning curve.
Yeah, figuring how to roll my fingers among the face buttons to do fancy stuff in Metroid Prime was tricky. I also like to use my thumbs to reach across the controller to the dpad and c stick on the opposite side so that I can change visors while on the move, for example.
Yeah, it shows just how good of a game Metroid Prime was because it was still amazing despite very awkward controls.
