No using GC controller for Sega VC games

Turns out, if you were looking forward to downloading some of Sega's Virtual Console games and using your old GameCube controller to play them, you are up a very large creek and lacking any kind of paddling device whatsoever. See, to play those Sega VC games, you're going to have to purchase Nintendo's classic gamepad.

Looks like Nintendo was lying when they said all VC games would work with the classic gamepad or GC controller. The decision to make the gamepad mandatory for all Sega VC games is one that this blogger cannot wrap his head around. What would the logical reasons be, if there even are any?
