Thanks for the input guys. I don't even have a Wii yet and just randomly came across that while looking for other stuff. It looked cool, but I was afraid it might be a laggy one.

Sadly, the one controller that hasn't been adapted well for the Wii is the only one for which the Classic controller is a completely inadequate substitute. Sin and Punishment and Ocarina of Time both feel completely wrong without a proper N64 controller.

What are you talking about Flamepanther?

Raphnet has had N64 to Wii Adapters for a long time.

Most, if not all, of the commercial adapters are trash. The Komodo one is absolutely terrible - 1 second lag on SNES controller. I used most of them and the only ones I would spend money on are Raphnets or RetroUSB's.

Wow, how did I miss that? I don't normally buy homemade kits like that, but I may have to make an exception here.
