NINTENDO Wii Classic Controller - game pad

The Classic Controller is an expansion for the Wii's Remote. It connects to the port on the bottom of the Wii Remote to allow for wireless connectivity with the Wii console. The... more...shape and style of the Classic Controller is more like the traditional controller design, which allows for ease of use with the classic games available through the Virtual Console.

Full review

This is a must have for Wii owners. This controller rocks. I really enjoy using this! My complaints for this controller are menial compared to its game playing performance.

Likes

The price is right- I bought this from Wal-mart for $20, and they can be found for cheaper used at game stores like Hastings or Vintage Stock.
Very Easy to hook up- You attach the cord to your wii remote, wait a couple seconds and you are ready to go.
Works great for active game play, not one that you have to spend half and hour on figuring out the buttonn.

Dislikes

My biggest complaint is that you can not use it for all Wii games! You can tell if this remote is compatible with a game by checking the back of the game case, if it is compatable there will be a picture of it on the upper right corner.
Also wish this came in othe colors other than white.

My Opinion
I was disappointed that there are not more games compatible for this controller. I know you can not use it for Super Paper mario and FiFA '08. The white color of the controller seems boring, I assume you can buy skins for this but that is still not the same. On the plus side the remote is very easy to use in game play. If you like using regular controllers or maybe would just like a different change of pace from the wii remote then buy this.
