This sux (only cause it cant play cube games) Although this is probably my fault in the eyes of the nintendo followers. OK since your going to pin it on me ill open the batting and say its my fault cause the cube was not a classic so the classic controler shouldnt be used.

Finally someone is admitting a nintendo mistake i admit i have been going on but its really in reaction to everyone not admitting things and covering up and saying im sooking ect ect im also hoping that perhaps nintendo may show interest in us and check out opinions ... and the opinions they would see is people saying "stop whinging and just pay the money" "80 bux is the wrong price games should be 100" what do you think nintendo australia would do in reaction to your comments.... give us better NO!

Its good to see you coming round Doc B ... i mean in all seriousness and honesty id love for the wii to be realy good... then id be happy ... i doubt it will and really i come here to voice genuine concern i dont take time out of my own life to bad mouth a game system to upset people ive never met... but the wii has cracks already and the problem with this is there isnt one rival (Sega) anymore, now nintendo has to be better then two manufacturers. Going cheap hasnt helped and all the dodgy leave outs are making it worse. But like all involved im hoping the wii kicks ass and Zelda TP is the greatest game ever... but they need more. And they need to stop making us pay extra for everything. Extra money for this extra money for that GIVE US A BREAK REGGIE!

Thats the sort of crap that creaps lazyness into nintendo. so yeah nintendos great and Melstorm is JUST NEGATIVE..... why do i come here and plead my case all the time???? cause i honestly would love nintendo to be great but they are just not doing it! They are becoming lazy and your allowing them to do it by making concession for their lazyness.... comments such as "oh its only 20 bux dont be a tight ass just shut up and buy it" these coments are making nintendo charge you and me 20 bux whereas they may have in the past let it slide for us the fans! Gotta say the people who are high on extacy need to come back to earth get real and look at whats in front of them with a dash of reality..... I more then anyone hope this system is great.... but i more then anyone doubt it. Thats my stance!

Um, question time... Does anybody know if the gamecube controllers work for classic games? They have more than enough buttons. Or is it that classic games MUST use a D-pad? If so i think that's fairly ridiculous... If they use that as an excuse to make the customers buy the classic controller just because of this then heads are gonna roll...

"oh no, a joystick, this advanced technology is so many lightyears ahead of the D-pad that it would be nigh impossible to incoporate such a feature into the humble classic game" - pfft i say, pfft...

(err... sorry, i usually hate this kind of negativity as it's kind of pointless i know but it's late at night... i know it's still not an excuse but hey, i tried... ;D)

Cube controllers do work for Virtual console games, but because the d-pad on the cube controller wasnt meant to be used its too small and awkwardly positioned. Using it is possible but it will greatly reduce your gameplay experience. Negative or realistic its all a matter of opinion.

Some of the games are compatible, most of the early NES, Master System, Turbo Grafix games, it will state what controller is compatible before you down load the game.
Personally I suggest you grab the classic controller if you plan on getting some VC games as it's the most comfortable controller next to the Game Cube one and it works with some new games like SSBB and Mario Kart.

Aside from my saturn controller which will always be the best for old school retro gaming I must say that the Classis Controller is the best controller on the market for newer gaming consoles. It's a little small but I'm also seven feet tall so everything's small in my hands. It's got the best analog controls and has angles built into the controller like the Nunchuk so you know exactly what angles you're hitting without looking. Ingenious idea I wish more controllers utilized. Makes gaming much more precise.
