You spelled Famicom wrong.

That seems a bit expensive for a controller.

Oh... I got my currency mixed up. /me feels very stupid now
I'd say go for it!

EDIT Wait are talking about SNES controllers or SNES styled controllers for the wii?

@2009monash I just noticed that you're new, Welcome to Nlife!
It would be helpful if you posted a link. It sounds very expensive, I think it depends on how deep your wallet is and how much you want it, if you really like it and want to get it, go for it! I don't have one and I don't know anyone who does though.

I've wanted to get one of these, but a bit more than i'd like to spend -- i think they were a limited edition release. They are way cool though.

And welcome, monash!

Worth every penny. I love mine and use it FAR more than the regular Classic Controller.

Plain old gamer :)

I have one. They're cool. The box is worth buying one for alone.

I've got one. They are EXACTLY the same as a SNES/Famicon controller in size, build, button feel but are a little bit lighter. I love mine and wouldn't wanna play SNES virtual console games any other way - It just feels perfect to use the 'original' pad. I think they were a platinum reward for Japanese Club Nintendo members a few years ago. I got mine for about £25 when they first came out but prices are crazy now. Play Asia sometimes have them and are cheaper then the typical Ebay prices. You can also get an adapter to play original SNES controllers on the Wii via the Gamecube controller ports here:- http://www.retrousb.com/index.php?cPath=22

These. They were initally a Club Nintendo Japan Platinum Prize exclusive. Play-Asia has them for a tad under $80 each. I got lucky and found a guy on a forum I frequent and bought two of them for $90 shipped. I use one and I keep the other one unopened. Needless to say that Japan gets all the cool stuff. Maybe NOA's Club Nintendo will throw us a bone this year and give us one as a Platinum Prize choice, but I wouldn't count on it...
