Can someone answer my controller questions?

I need some information regarding the Wii U Pro Controller and the Wii Classic Controller.

Is the Wii U Pro Controller backwards compatible with original Wii games that use the Wii Classic Controller?

Is the Wii Classic Controller able to work for Wii U games that use the Wii U Pro Controller?

Please help!

The Wii U Pro Controller is not backwards compatible with Wii games, and you will need a Wii Classic Controller for those games.

As for the Wii Classic Controller, that would depend on the individual games. Some Wii U games may be compatible with Classic Controller, but the Classic Controller and Wii U Pro Controller are not interchangeable.

The Pro Controller does not work in Wii mode; you'll need a Classic Controller for games that need a Classic Controller.

Classic Controller compatibility and Pro Controller compatibility are not interchangeable for the Wii U games.
