I found some in the USA on ebay for 34.98US which is reasonable. Should I get it? It would be nice to have a full controller for my Wii and with tatsunoko vs. capcom coming out I need something other then a normal classic controller.

From My understanding it looks like the same thing I've seen in most places with an electronic section. I think It's just a frame that you snap your already existing classic controller into. And don't quote me on this because i've seen this thing before but it doesn't appeal to me since i'm comfortable with how the classic controller feels as is but I think i've seen them for like $15. If this is the same thing i'm thinking of make sure if you buy it from ebay if its $30 that your getting the classic controller as well with the sega frame mimic thingy.
No, this is an actual replacement for the classic controller. Was released in Japan. I'm thinking as a Club Nintendo reward?From My understanding it looks like the same thing I've seen in most places with an electronic section.

I saw that controller a while ago on playasia.com and I thought it was awesome.
There's no piece that snaps on or anything, it's anactual controller :P
There's supose to be a white and a black one also. I wanna get one but Amazon just has the Japanese version and I'm not sure if that would work for a NA Wii, does anyone know if it would?
No it's a brand new controller with some refinements making it similar to the ps3 controller, but classic style. It's released in japan, but america has yet to hear of a release. Theres a black and white style and I really think it's sweet.From My understanding it looks like the same thing I've seen in most places with an electronic section.

huh. Well that's a little cooler i guess but you can buy a frame that you snap your classic controller into and it looks exactly the same.

The only thing that is "Region Locked" are the games. Hardware such as controllers can't be Region locked. So yes, it will work with the NA Wii.I have a Classic Controller Pro and besides being more comfortable the two row shoulder buttons are a BIG improvement. I don't know what the hell where they thinking with the original classic controller single row shoulder button configuration.From My understanding it looks like the same thing I've seen in most places with an electronic section.

They also sell them on Amazon, imported from Japan. I would be careful though, many of the ebay Chinese ones are knock offs; a good indication of the real Macoy is if the box is included; most of the knock-offs seem to include something to the effect "fresh from the factory-not boxed."

Well the classic controller is to mimic the snes controller for the vc and the extra shoulder buttons arn't always needed.But it isneat they have both now
