How Our Score Is Calculated

Product Description

To match your Wii console, the controller is available in two stylish colors: white and black.
Classic Nintendo controller design elements are combined with modern ergonomic features to create a unique product.
The ergonomic grip ensures player comfort during long gaming sessions, while the additional row of shoulder buttons expands the game's control options.
Players can enjoy near-wireless freedom by plugging in a Wii Remote.
There are over 460 Wii, WiiWare, and Virtual Console games that are compatible with this system.

Questions & Answers

Will these classic controllers work with Smash Brothers if they're plugged into the Wii remote?

Yes, if we're discussing Brawl. In fact, that is how my brother prefers to play.

Does this controller have a wireless connection?

It comes with a wire that connects to the Wii remote. The Wii remote control, on the other hand, is wireless. It has a wire protruding from it, as shown in the image.

What is the rationale behind the $53 price tag? Why should I pay $89 for this when I can get it for $19? Is it new at GameStop for 99 dollars?

Because Amazon claims that it will become scarce.

Selected User Reviews For Wii Classic Controller Pro - White

Be cautious, because the condition is suspect
3/5

Regrettably, I was given an overused controller. br>br>It works, but I believe the D- is a mistake. The pad has a minor flaw. br>br>Cable was on the verge of exposing the metal wire inside. br>br>Controller appeared to have been burned a little at the top. br>br>The sad part is, they're selling it for nearly full price. They should have been more descriptive and honest about the condition of the controller, not just because it was no longer manufactured.

One of the best in the business - For fans of the classic Nintendo games, this is a must-have
5/5

This is a fantastic controller. It's the perfect size for the majority of people, and it's semi-transparent. It's ergonomic, the buttons are snug (not loose or rattly), and it's a pleasure to hold. The analog sticks are also excellent. My recommendation is to soft mod your Wii and use it with it because this expands the number of games you can play with the controller and most emulators for the system support it. br>br>I just wish more Wii games supported it natively so you didn't have to worry about your wrists going limp after a few hours of playing Mario party mini games or slashing Link's sword with a wii mote and nunchuck combo.

For fans of the Xenobalde Chronicles and The Last Story, this is a must-have
4/5

This controller is a great buy for the few games that only use the Classic Controller and not the Gamecube controller, such as Xenoblade Chronicles and The Last Story. It's a cross between the Nintendo Gamecube controller and the Playstation Dualshock controller, two of my favorite controllers ever made. That isn't to say it has the best of both worlds, but it is a resounding success for the most part. Advantages: br>br>
- Dual analog sticks that are symmetrical allow the D-Pad to be used as a controller. It needs to be on the side to navigate menus and play retro gamesbr> - a total of four shoulder buttonsbr> - Grip enhances the already comfortable shape of the Gamecube controller. It's incredibly cozy.
- Unlike the original Classic Controller, the wire is on the top, rather than the bottom. br> Cons: Analog sticks are spaced further apart than on the original Classic Controllerbr>br>
- Drains the Wii Remote's batteries while still causing you to be bothered by wiresbr> - No triggers (though the triggers on the Gamecube controller are still my favorites)br> - There are eight analog sticks in a package. For 3rd person RPGs, the directional base, similar to the Gamecube controller, is annoying.
- There will be no rumblebr> - Unlike the Gamecube or Xbox 360 controllers, pressing the top R and L buttons is difficult and uncomfortable. br> The four face buttons on the Gamecube controller were particularly appealing to me. It's a shame they didn't go with the more traditional diamond layout, but it makes sense for the retro games for which the Classic Controller was created. br>br>In general, this is one of the most comfortable controllers I've ever used. I'm hoping for a rerelease of this controller with Bluetooth, rechargable batteries, rumble, triggers, and circular analog sticks with the Wii U. At that point, it would undoubtedly become my all-time favorite controller.

One of these is a must-have item
4/5

I recently purchased a Wii after waiting for people to start unloading them for cheap in order to fund their new WiiU. As a result, I've been a long-time Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 gamer. If you want to play a Wii game that is similar to an arcade or a console game,.

But, for $20, it's a decent controller
3/5

It cannot be used with any current consoles without an adapter, which must be purchased separately. Furthermore, it's difficult to find a new one for $20, so unless you really want this one, in which case you'll get your money's worth, I'd skip it and buy another cheap controller.

Playing Games on a Virtual Console It really works! Now, first and foremost - My husband, on the other hand, is a gamer
4/5

When we first got our Wii, he was ecstatic about the Virtual Console and the prospect of playing classic Nintendo games. He didn't realize he needed a Classic Controller until after purchasing Mario Kart 64 on the VC. Oops. Because he didn't rush out to get the controller, the game icon has been taunting him on the Wii Menu for months. As part of his bachelor's degree, I made the decision. I'd get one of these as a present for a friend. I debated whether to get this or a GameCube Controller because it sounded like you'd need one or the other depending on the games you played. According to Nintendo's official website, this controller is compatible with the majority of the VC games that my husband is interested in. So I went ahead and purchased the CC Pro because it appeared to be more ergonomic than the CC. br>br>I couldn't help myself; I had to open the box and test it out first to make sure everything was working properly. Mind you, I've only played Mario Kart 64 so far. Plug it in to the Wiimote right away and you're ready to go! Never having played the game before, even back in the day, it took me a while to figure out which buttons did what (I know, lame), but once I did, I was blown away. The game has a light feel to it, which I like, and the analog joysticks are very responsive. I also like how the L button is placed. R-keys – To me, everything appeared to be in order. It's a little wide, but I have long fingers and my husband has large hands, so it should fit him perfectly. If he has a different opinion, I will update this review. br>br>I gave it four stars because it isn't wireless on its own, and I had to do way too much research to figure out if this was the controller I wanted. I'd like Nintendo to be more specific about this - such as a detailed list of all the games available for each controller vs. examining each game on its own It would have made the transaction go more smoothly.
