Sega Wiibrew Compatible

I got this because I couldn't find the right Sega style controller to work with Wiibrew. I am using it now and am very happy with how it works. I played enough Sonic on this one yesterday.

Pros
  • I Hold My Fists
Cons
  • Quality

Confirmed to work on both NES Classic and SNES Classic

I've used this on both NES Classic Mini and SNES Classic Mini. Works perfectly. The home button works! That's why I bought this so very happy. Buttons respond as they should. I recommend using a controller extension for this one con as it is very short. But I have already bought 2 for use with other controllers.

Pros
  • Big selection
Cons
  • Makes me angry

WORTH THE MONEY best in controllers

don't repeat my mistake! I needed these controllers but tried to get a fake first to save money. BAD DECISION. I got what I paid for. These were slow responding controllers with buttons that stuck and a joystick didn't even work, right out of the box! Then I gave up and started looking for a real Wii brand. They were packaged well as advertised and they work GREAT. We have so much fun playing our classic games with them and they arrived on time as promised. Do yourself a favor and don't be…

Pros
  • well built
Cons
  • too dumb

Works as expected: Accessories

Classic controller works as expected. There's really nothing special about what's normal, as no extra bells and whistles are required, it's just a controller. One thing I'm still getting used to is that the cable comes out of the "bottom" of the controller instead of the top like I'm used to with other console controllers. There was a big gap for me in consoles (the original PlayStation was the last one I owned before the Wii), so it might be the norm for controllers now, and I'm just outdated…

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Brief instructions

If you want to play NES and SNES games, get it.

Nintendo had a great idea and marketing strategy to make NES and SNES games available for purchase and download on the Wii Virtual Console. You can play these games with the Game Cube controller, but it's very difficult since it's for the Game Cube and not the SNES. As for the NES, they might make the game available with the Wii Remote. For the SNES, you need that classic Wii controller because four buttons were available on that console and you won't find them on the Wii remote. However, not…

Pros
  • Glitter
Cons
  • Contact Seller

A good product that suffers from poor support

I bought the classic controller when I decided to buy games from the Wii Store Channel. The controller itself is of good quality, the size is good, the buttons are comfortable and pressed. You have to connect it to the Wii Remote to use it, but that's not a big deal. The only gripe I have with the classic controller partially affects many Wii games. Despite the many types of physical controllers compatible with the Wii, in-game control customization leaves a lot to be desired. All the games…

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Marketable

Essential for Virtual Console games

One of the main reasons for buying a Wii console was the ability to play Virtual Console games from bygone eras. I still have the original NES and many of my favorite games, but it rarely works properly, doesn't look very good etc etc. I find it awkward to use. Also, I now have access to Genesis and SNES games and I don't own either of those systems. Although the selection of games is limited and the prices are too high, being able to download the Wii Virtual Console is still a great thing…

Pros
  • Great for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Uncertain
