Selected User Reviews For Wii Classic Controller

I think it is worth the money
5/5

I made a mistake, don't do the same! As a result of my need for these controllers, I tried a knockoff version first in order to save some DECISION MADE WAS A BAD ONE. As I was paying for, I got exactly what I wanted. -which took a while - We received controllers with buttons that stuck and even a joystick that did not work, right out of the box! Therefore, I finally gave in to my desire and looked for the actual Nintendo Wii brand. These were extremely well made- Exactly as described, in perfect condition, and they work like a charm. They have been a lot of fun to play our classic games with, and they arrived exactly on time as described. Don't be cheap as you are doing yourself a favor. You can now buy the official Wii classic controller!.

The game will be available on both the NES classic and the My NES classic Mini as well as my SNES classic Mini have all been used with this
5/5

I love how well it works. I can use the home button! Exactly for that reason did I buy this, so I am ecstatic about it. When a button is pressed, it responds correctly. It would be wise to use the controller extension cable for this only down side since it is quite short. However, I already bought two for use with the other controllers.

For video games on a virtual console, it's almost a necessity
4/5

In addition to being able to play Virtual Console games I purchased the Wii so that I can play older games. I still have an original NES and many of my favorite games, but they rarely work properly, aren't very attractive, etc. etc. I find it difficult I would have access to titles for the Genesis and SNES, and I own neither of these systems. Though the Wii's Virtual Console download option has a limited selection of games and game prices are too high, it is still a great addition to the Wii. As an owner of one of the greatest controllers ever made, I can attest to that Wavebird - a wireless transmitter for the Gamecube Considering how most classic games use controllers, I assumed that they would be adequate. The truth is, that's not really It can almost be said that a good chunk of NES and SNES games require the Wavebird makes a mediocre substitute for SNES and NES games, while Wavebird performs well for SNES and NES titles. Due to the fact that the Classic Controller plugs into the Wiimote, it is It's kind of like that. Therefore, 4 stars?

So, what makes 4 stars?
The price of the accessory is too high, just like every other Nintendo accessory. think it would be better if Nintendo included two controllers at the $20 price tag. The Wii console and games are relatively inexpensive, but Nintendo rips you off for Also, the wire that connects the controller to the motherboard is poorly located at the bottom. After years of cords protruding out of the top of the controller, it seems like a small problem, but it requires some adjusting to. Also, since this price is so low, you shouldn't have to worry about wires at all.

This is a highly recommended book
5/5

Our family purchased an NES classic and my husband found it difficult to find a second remote control. The NES mini classic (mini) will work great with this.

This game can be played on a Super Nintendo Entertainment System or a Game Boy
5/5

The classic game is the one that you've probably played (i. e. It works almost as well as the original SNES controller, though you will need to press down further on the L and R buttons at the upper left and upper right.

I would recommend purchasing such a device if you're planning to play SNES and NES games
5/5

This is certainly a great idea provided by Nintendo and provides a great marketing strategy to allow NES and SNES games to be purchased and downloaded through the virtual console on The controller for the game cube is what you need to play these games, but it's a little difficult because they were made for the game cube and not the If they had made the Wii Remote compatible with the NES, they could have made gaming easier. If you have an SNES, you need a Wii Classic Controller, since there are four buttons on the SNES console that the Wii remote doesn't have. You can play all games running on a virtual console with the game cube controller, but you shouldn't. Although using the original feel makes the game more fun, the original play style is much simpler. Rather than keep this controller separate from the original system, they should have just included it. The act of obtaining games you should have purchased and later finding you do not need them is a bit cruel while being a great marketing method.

The Wiibrew emulator is compatible with the Sega Wii
5/5

Having been unable to find a working sega style controller for Wiibrew, this was the best I could find. I am now using this and I am very pleased with how it works. I've been playing with sonics on this a lot lately.
