If you watch this video, it appears as though you may need a Gamecube memory card, but that's not confirmed or denied yet. I would suggest buying the 251 Gamecube memory card, which is made by Nintendo and has a lot of space.

That depends on the Gamecube game, not Wii itself. Wii already supports both 16:9 widescreen and 480p Progressive Scan, so if the Gamecube game supports widescreen or Progressive Scan, then it will work in widescreen on Wii.

Yes, the Classic Controller apparently doubles as a Gamecube controller, however if the game made use of the Gamecube's analog triggers, then you are going to run into trouble playing that game with the Classic Controller because it's triggers are just buttons (like the PS2's L1 and R1 buttons).

I would suggest just getting a Wavebird or using any Gamecube because they're wireless, really cheap now and the Classic Controller also requires you plug it into the wiimote. And just in case you are wondering, yes, Wii does support Wavebird controllers.

Just by searching google, I found
these prices on Wavebirds, and
these prices on the 251 GC memory card. Check out
PriceGrabber.com, which compares prices from many sites and all the sites are trusted unlike some of those found on google.
