or you could always use a GC controller if you already have one. I'm not sure which of the two controllers is better however.

Plus, the classic controller is so cool, and it reminds me of the old days. Plus you can also use it to pwn people over the internet for Smash Brothers Brawl.

No, you have to have a GameCube controller (wired or Wavebird) and a GameCube memory card to save them.

As for the wiimote, you can use it for the NES and turbografx games. The SNES games, I would use the classic controller. As for the N64 games, I use the GameCube controller.

The Wiimote may be used for all NES and TG games, and many Genesis games (technically all thus far, though many map a critical function to the A button, which makes them awkward to play).

For SNES and N64 games, you must us either a Cl@ssic controller or GCN controller. The former is better if you play a lot of SNES games, as the latter's button layout can prove awkward for many of these.

No. You must use a GCN controller.

Nintendo and Genesis games can use the Wiimote, everything else needs either a GC controller or a classic controller.

As for accessories - get the nyko charger station. For the $30 you spend on it, you would otherwise go through that same amount of money in batteries within a month or so. There's not really much else out there besides remote covers and component cables.

Start out with Metroid Prime 3 and Resident Evil 4.. Super Paper Mario is also a great buy. :)
