Wii gets a new wireless Clas-sic Controller!

IGN has an article up on Thrustmaster's new and improved Clas-sic Controller for Wii. What's cool is that the controller also works with GC games and has built-in rumble! It's supposed to come out in October (U.S.) for $20.

I'm one of those who dislikes the offical Clas-sic Controller. It's just to small and awkward to hold for me. Hopefully this will suit me better.

Works with GameCube games and has built-in rumble? Sounds like a GameCube controller.LordAndrew

Normally I wouldn't consider a third-party controller, especially from Mad Catz or Pelican. But Thrustmaster makes a lot good quality PC controllers (from what I've hear), so I don't have a problem trying theirs out.

Logitech is working on Wii controllers as well, so maybe they'll have a better CC.

It is ugly, I agree, but I don't care as long as it works well.

How can you guys tell the D-pad sucks just by looking at a pic?

The ribs look really uncomfortable, but maybe it's just me.

I can't say I've had completely bad luck with third party controllers, but most are garbage. Fountech's Airstyle is the only decent one I've used, and that's due to the fact that it's a near carbon copy of the Dual Shock 2, but with wireless, and slightly rubberized grip on the bottom. It's also about ten times as sturdy-feeling as the actual Dual Shock...though it carried a price to match at the time.

The classic controller is already wireless, in the respect that it isn't wired to the console... Mantorok
