This ThinkGeek SNES Controller Looks Swish

Kotaku AU

I’m one of those crazy shut-ins that actually occasionally buys stuff from the WiiWare store and the Virtual Console. I have quite a few SNES games on my Wii, and it never feels quite right playing them with the Wii Classic Controller. Particularly games like Super Metroid or Super Mario World.
