Question...

So yeah ive been wondering...is there any real reason for me to get a Classic Controller? I mean the way i look at it is i have yet to find a game that needed it to be played...Even on VC i could either use the Wiimote or the Gamecube controller (which i have both) so i dont see a reason to get it..should i or is it a waste of money?

Classic controller would be a wise investment, you can't just use a Gamecube controller. Gamecube controller works for n64 games, but to play the rest of them like the Super Nintendo and Sega games you will need the classic controller, so your better off buying one and using it for all games really.

But if you plan on only downloading n64 games, your Gamecube controller works fine.

Also note, the Wiimote does not work with any VC games.
Remember that.

Fair enough, but your better off getting the Classic controller still as there are more than just 4 or 5 VC games out there, there is tons. Classic controller would be a good purchase, and easier knowing full well you can use it on the games rather than try and see which games work with the Wiimote right?

Personally I wouldn't get a VC Controller. The Wiimote works just fine for my games

Hey all,

The GC controller won't adapt properly to Super Nintendo games? I would think it would , since it has all of the same buttons - just layed out a bit different.

Ok, case-in-point, is there any VC game that will NOT work at all with the GC controller that would need the classic controller?

Thanks,
Matt!

The only games the GC and Wiimote do not work with are Turbographics16.

unless you want to play these games you don't really need one.

Guess I need to catch up on my VC games
