- carpespasm, on 04/16/2008, -4/+60It's always best to try and keep these kinds of comments right at a -1 IMHO.
- amanilaenvelope, on 04/16/2008, -1/+39just looking at the control brings me back memories to a simpler time.
- mcool119, on 04/16/2008, -7/+43I'm going to bury you to be ironic.
- Maxamegalon2000, on 04/16/2008, -1/+28Crap, there's stuff past the "please connect the Nunchuk" screen? I've been missing out!
- gameradam, on 04/16/2008, -5/+32Man I loved the SNES controller. The PAL version looked way better than the NTSC version.
- PocketWatch, on 04/16/2008, -1/+28I'm not going to lie - the captions on the slideshow were god awful.
- Ashkc88, on 04/16/2008, -1/+22You're right, it is true. They use the Gamecube controller ports.
Here's the link:

- DCJoeDogaswell, on 04/16/2008, -0/+19I just noticed something, and it isn't fair at all. Japan doesn't have to deal with the spawn of hell known as clamshell packaging, I think we should revolt.
- inactive, on 04/16/2008, -0/+19SNES Controller > Classic Controller
- AshamedAmerican, on 04/16/2008, -2/+19It's...beautiful.
- caddyalan, on 04/16/2008, -2/+17There are companies which sell converters which allow gamers to use standard NES and SNES pads on a PC (through USB). I've heard that this is true for the Wii as well, but I'm not sure.
- samfishercell, on 04/16/2008, -1/+16Didn't Nintendo say they aren't doing the awesome Nintendo Club prizes here due mainly to shipping?
Lame. I pay $50 for one of your discs, and instead of spending a tiny amount on shipping once I collect enough points from MANY $50 discs, you give me a couple computer desktops or AIM icons. Thanks Nintendo. - boxybrzown, on 04/16/2008, -0/+13Good luck getting past the "please connect the Nunchuk" screen.
- ibeetle, on 04/16/2008, -1/+14Available exclusively to Club Nintendo members?
Yea right. In a week they will be on Play Asia for $60 bucks and on eBay for $100. With knock-offs selling for $20. - Karmavs, on 04/16/2008, -0/+13The US controller has purple buttons, rather than the rainbow. (see here: http://xbox-emulation.dcemu.co.uk/snes.jpg )
- Cerebral, on 04/16/2008, -0/+10That's one thing I cannot stand about companies. They produce something amazing like this that would sell like ***** hotcakes and they only put it out to elite members who probably will not even use the damn thing and sell it years later on eBay. Until Nintendo mass produces these for the public or someone gets a hold of one and figures out how to sell these made from the old controllers... ***** YOU!
It's ***** like this that makes people mod ***** and pirate *****. We want it the way WE want it not the way YOU want it.
While I'm at it has anyone seen a "classic controller" mod of some sorts that you can fix the broken ass stop sign design on the analog sticks? The damn thing just runs straight for the diagnal corners and that just doesn't work when you are trying to shoot ***** up in Geometry Wars: Galaxies. - BrandonR717, on 04/16/2008, -1/+11And again, Nintendo will ignore it's fans and it's customers will never see this outside of Japan.
***** you, Nintendo. - lemination, on 04/16/2008, -1/+10could someone show me the difference?
- Halokhan, on 04/16/2008, -0/+9A time when Mario, Link and Samus were your after school friends.

Pics on the right. - undershirt, on 04/16/2008, -0/+8I love those fleeting memories, just had a flashback myself
- alex7575, on 04/16/2008, -0/+7just because there isn't an ignore button, doesn't mean you can't just ignore this guy...
- ramshaw, on 04/16/2008, -4/+11Now another generation of kinds can have they hands raped by bad ergonomics. Sweet.
- TalkingBanana, on 04/16/2008, -7/+14And I shall Digg you up!
- remorsecode, on 04/16/2008, -1/+7But if it didn't, it wouldn't be wireless!
...and wireless rules. - thebriz, on 04/16/2008, -0/+6here's the link to the adapters: http://www.retrousb.com/index.php?categoryID=80
They have ones for nes and snes - crashingechelon, on 04/16/2008, -0/+6I wonder if nintendo made a retro controller like this for each previous console if they would sell. I know I'd but a snes controller for Wii even though I have a classic.
- inactive, on 04/16/2008, -3/+9And I shall Digg you down!
- thecrazyd, on 04/16/2008, -1/+7And it's own batteries. And it's own additional cost to manufacture.
- TheFilmBuff, on 04/16/2008, -0/+6i wish they'd make a n64 controller that plugs into the wii remote like the classic controller... cuz playing n64 games on virtual console using the classic controllers or gamecube controllers is not the same... i also wish they'd release super smash 64 on virtual console...
- inactive, on 04/16/2008, -1/+7That's how the classic works too
- danomagnum, on 04/16/2008, -0/+5Yep, and two of 'em are scalloped and two aren't.
- Fozfan33, on 04/16/2008, -2/+7they need to just produce these for everyone... the classic controller feels so odd when i use it.
- presidentnixon, on 04/16/2008, -0/+5An elegant weapon for a more civilized age.
- honeymustardn, on 04/16/2008, -0/+5http://cgi.ebay.com/Lot-of-2-original-Nintendo-NES ...
There you go. That took me literally 15 seconds. - carpespasm, on 04/16/2008, -5/+10other than the novelty, is there any use for this over a classic controller?
- ELCad, on 04/16/2008, -0/+4Hey, a N64 controller would be pretty cool. Good idea.
- thefallofbrad, on 04/16/2008, -4/+8too bad you have to plug the remote into the controller in order to use it.
- tito184, on 04/16/2008, -2/+6*yawn*
Wake me up when they get the Power Glove. - LeRenard, on 04/16/2008, -0/+3Ugg. the Max sucked. I preferred the Advantage.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NES_Advantage - Cerebral, on 04/16/2008, -0/+3Hey technically those AIM icons have a shipping cost as well. It's just WAY less and they don't have to fool with customs :)
- vanden9, on 04/16/2008, -0/+3Yes...
- tropican8, on 04/16/2008, -0/+3The one for the PC (USB) is called the Super SmartJoy. Works perfectly with SNES emulators too.
- ryanhayn, on 04/16/2008, -0/+3That little controller brings back the most happy gaming memories of my sad little life.
- undershirt, on 04/16/2008, -1/+4Those are the original colors for the Super Famicom controller, not the SNES.
- BearinG, on 04/16/2008, -0/+3doing my part
- chokeaduck, on 04/16/2008, -0/+3I always thought so... Unless it had a microphone that no-one knew about.
