 A good product, that suffers from poor support July 13, 2008
I bought the Classic Controller when I decided to buy titles from the Wii Shop Channel. The controller itself is good quality, the size is good, and the buttons are nice and clicky. You have to plug it into the Wii remote to use it, but that isn't such a big deal.
The one complaint I have with the Classic Controller, is in part a complaint I have with many Wii games. Despite the multitude of physical controller types compatible with the Wii, the customization of the controls in-game leaves quite a bit to be desired. All of the games I've played force you to use the analog stick for character control, when the controller itself is set up to prioritize the D-pad for control. Were it not for this one oversight on Nintendo's part, I would have given the Classic Controller 5 stars.
If you're planning to play any games for the Virtual Console, or any games that look like they'd utilize a more classic control type, opt for the Classic Controller. Just be prepared to hold the controller a little sideways, so that you can use the left thumb stick without the controller slipping out of your hands.

We ordered this Wii classic controller to have another one on hand for when my childrens friends come over to play the wii games...the design of this controller is different than our other one and makes it easier for them to maneuver in some of the wii games. Excellent purchase.
Works fine, but a little small!! June 22, 2008
Just needs to be more like the Gamecube controller and that would make it perfect.
Wii Classic controller June 13, 2008
This controller works great, especially with Mario Cart. My kids (ages 7 & 10) had trouble using the steering wheels that came with the game. They have been using the classic controller since and have improved on their game skills.
Perfect for Virtual Console and other games June 2, 2008
This controller is an excellent wii accessory. It is styled similar to the SNES controller, but with two new analog sticks in the middle. I use it for Mario Kart Wii, Super Smash Bros Brawl, and the Virtual Console games from the Wii Store. I couldn't be happier with it.
