Wii controller shell for playing classic games

wii controller shell

The Wii controller shell was just shown by Nintendo. It looks like a cross between the (S)NES & N64 controller, as it should be. Especially since those are the types of system games it’s meant to play, along with Sega Genesis & TurboGrafx console games, via the Wii’s Virtual Console classic games download service.

I wonder what the attached cable is for? Is it an attachment wire to connect to the main (remote) controller like the nunchuck does? Or is it old-school in a way that it’s wired to plugin to the Wii console’s GameCube controller ports? More soon.
