A SNES controller that plugs into the Wii remote... honestly I would rather a Game Cube controller adapter that allows me to plug my GC controller into the remote since the wire is too short and the people in my house are not careful when walking past wires (dog)

That's what I'm getting soon for being a Club Nintendo platinum member last year. :D And just recently I hit platinum member status after Mario Kart Wii so I'm excited to see what the gift is this year~

Truth be told, I'd rather have a N64 re-issue because the classic controller is a great SNES and NES pad and the mapping of the c-buttons just is awkward for N64 games.

I want a Club Nintendo USA!!! All the cool stuff the Japanese get and here we are being their second biggest market... I guess we get the benefit of getting games in a timely manner...

Those RetroZone adaptors were cool, maybe they'll do an N64 one also. I've been watching this on play-asia http://www.play-asia.com/paOS-13-71-113 ... -2f4f.html

Its the same as the club nintendo one you are getting. I wonder what the price will be. I saw someone pre-selling them on eBay for $79.99, and 1 of the 2 he had sold, so I guess the demand is there.

Damn right. Why our Nintendo sucks ass so much, I have no idea. They have shitty forums, cruddy prizes for registering systems/games, and their magazine has been switching between entertaining and bland over the years. I mean hell, even the Europeans have a cool point system. The most we've ever gotten is a Wii extended warranty and extra styluses for our DSes. Granted, I loved my Pink Kirby Canvas Curse Stylus when I was still using my old DSes, but come on. We have jack shit over here, and I here jack left to microsoft (hehe, I wonder how many people will get that one :P).

But still, damn cool. Though, I think RetroZone has NES/SNES adaptors for Wii thru the GCN controller slot. Pretty cool imo. http://www.retrousb.com/index.php?categoryID=80 Lol, double posted link for the awesome. :P

Ugh... I HATE the way the jacket looks. Unfortunately, I have to use them - I like having some form of protection from the my son. He's five years old and he's like a human tornado.
