The Classic Controller

by Micheal Janstar

Nintendo has already presented their newest developed game console"the Wii. On their press conference last 2005 they have demonstrated the features of the Wii and its unique game controller that looks like a remote control called Wii Remote. Nintendo defined the Wii as a revolution in the game console because of its motion-sensing ability that is surely going to be a new experience for the gamers.

With the release of the Wii game console, game developers started to create games that will use the features of the Wii or else the presentation would be non-sense. But classic game can still be played on with the Wii console. But some of these games could not take advantage of using the feature of the Wii Remote controller.

A classic controller for Wii was also made by Nintendo. The Wii Classic Controller looks like a combination of the SNES and GameCube controller and like the Wii Remote it perfectly works with the Wii consoles system.

As what was said to be the traditional gamepad for Wii. The Wii Classic Controller was shaped oval with a curve, familiar buttons can be shown like X, Y, A and B, the directional buttons and the four shoulder buttons on the top of the controller with the label Z and R and ZL and ZR. Same as the Wii remote it also has the " and + buttons and the home button in the middle. Matching the Wii concept it was white in color and light in weight.

Retro games from past virtual game consoles like Nintendo Entertainment System, Super NES, Nintendo 64, Sega Genesis and NEC Turbografix 16 all perfectly works with the Wii Classic Controller. Unfortunately, games from GameCube console can not be played while using the Classic Controller because it can only work with a GameCube controller.

For the Wii Classic Controller to work it must be plugged in to the Wii Remote making it work wirelessly. It does not have its own power supply and gets its power on the Wii remote. For players that are can not adapt to the Wii remote yet this controller will definitely work for them.
