Dont buy controllers you dont need.

On the top of the Wii there are 4 slots for gamecube controllers so you dont have to buy the wii controllers that look like the NES ones.

Not all gamecube controllers need cables. . .Ever heard of the Wavebird? It's a Wireless controller Nintendo made for the gamecube, and it works wonderfully with the Wii.
