So I was around a friends house and I saw he had one of these snazzy controllers and I had had a bad experience with the unofficial wii gamecube controller clones (the cables are *really* short*...) so I thought I'd get one of these babies.
So I've just received my order and fired up my copy of Resident Evil 1 ready for some thrills and spills and to my absolute dismay it does not work with Gamecube games.
Now this I hardly believe is a technical problem I think Nintendo engineered it NOT to work because you'd get all the great cheap gamecube games and play them and not as many Wii games.
Thankfully I've got a few controllers ordered off of Ebay so it's not a total wash out but I am really disappointed ... Read More:

It's a good pad, but the analogue sticks are a little too close together. Also, it doesn't work with Gamecube games, and isn't as comfortable as the Wavebird either. Now don't get me wrong, it is NOT uncomfortable, just not as comfortable. Buy a Wavebird if you can, but if you can't get one of these then.

Ok, first of all, it is a great idea to get the classic controller, as it does add to the enjoyment of the Wii, It includes all the "Wii Buttons" and it even works with the Wii Menu (so you can use analog sticks instead of the wii mote if you like)

Essential for playing games downloaded from the Virtual Console, this controller will work for every game downloaded, and the controller can also be used for compatible games for the Wii. The controller is wireless and plugs in to the remote like the nunchuck does. It handles well; the controller fits comfortably in the hands and has a layout familiar to past Nintendo console controllers. Overall a good purchase, but as mentioned below if you're looking to download games such as Mario Kart 64 etc, two or more of these are advisable.
