Maybe that's what those prongs on the back of the Classic Controller are for?

Well from what I hear, they were there to attach the Wiimote, but they decided to trash that idea at the last moment so they stayed on. Although that doesn't mean they won't come up with a new use for it :D.

Thanks for updating guys, sorry I didn't. If I'm not around and someone else finds out the new VC additions please post them and thanks for doing so.

I downloaded A Link to the Past and it's super awesome! The classic controller is perfect for playing SNES games! I also got Zelda II on GBA (so I'm sorta getting into some Zelda games).
Also, I got Mario Kart 64! :luigi: It's great, looks better than ever, but I'm slightly disapointed with it because it doesn't let you save your Ghost Data which originally required a controller pak on N64. With all the Wii memory capabilities why the heck can't you save like with the controller pak!?! Sure it's no big deal here, no one really needs ghost data anyways, but I certainly hope they change this for future N64 games on VC! Besides that, using a GCN controller just doesn't feel right because the N64 controller is so unique, but after playing a little while I quickly got used to using the classic controller to play it. Don't get me wrong though, the VC version is great and I'm still glad I got it, just didn't completely fill my expectations on those two points, especially since they're charging $10 for it.

I really want to download Super Mario World, and Donkey Kong Country should be appearing next week so those will be my next two downloads as soon as I buy some more points

Ah, well if you're getting into Zelda than you should definatly get Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask when they get put on! And speaking of SNES games I got Super Castlevania and I thought that worked great on the Classic Controller as well. I haven't even bothered using a GCN controller yet. Although I did try my Wii mote on some of the NES games just for fun, see what it felt like. My friends used the GCN controller though when we played multiplayer on Bomberman.

Yeah, just the Wii remote is actually great for playing NES games (Super Mario Bros and Legend of Zelda :D )

I do hope they have some sort of use for that... or just make a new wireless classic controller that has rumble built in. As for the WaveBirds, I have two, but I prefer using corded controllers most of the time because of the rumble, whenever I play something where rumble really doesn't matter I like to use the wavebirds. Y'know, that's another thing they should make, in order to keep everything for Wii wireless they should make a new slimmer wavebird that does have rumble and it can be Wii white. I really wish they would XD

I'm a bit in my cups at the moment.
I'll just stick with my GameCube controller. :p I would get a Classic controller because I love the SNES-like design (the SNES controller is possibly my favorite one) but $30 isn't worth it...at least not now.

Hmmm. . .can't think of anything, the Nunchuk is $20, and the Wiimote is $40. . .although where did you hear it was thirty? Maybe if it was at a store they were just over pricing it. . .

That's some pretty good ideas! Only downside IMO is that I'd have to buy a new controller :p. Although I don't know if I would just for rumble. . .maybe when I get a new Wiimote it'd be worth it, but since for the time being I only have one XD.
