I like the designs, I don't like the company.

I'd rather go official for pennies more. However, the one advantage is that it is basically a classic controller.

I hope so. I'm ready to unload my Sega Saturn in preparation for it.

I'm not expecting it to magically drop to $75 dollars overnight, BUT....if it's anything like what happened to Earthbound, it'll drop a significant amount, stay at that level for a short bit, then kinda go back up somewhat over time. I remember seeing Earthbound being at over $200 dollars on Amazon and then shortly after it was released on the Wii U Virtual Console, the prices went down fairly quickly, to almost $150 dollars at one point. I guess the furor has cooled because now it's back to almost $200.

Mind you I'm only speaking of Amazon, because I'm not even going to bother on Ebay due to the fact that it takes 5 days to transfer money to my paypal in order to buy anything there, and a decently priced copy will NOT last 5 days before being sold. Case in point, a person on Amazon had a copy of MMX3 for sale for just over $150 dollars (it was put up yesterday). It was sold later that day.

So yeah, I'm hoping for a release date on the Wii U Virtual Console soon so I can prepare.

It won't affect the price of the SNES cart at all.

The C-Stick on those new controllers is wrong.

Why not? Some virtual releases have impacted the price of physical carts and some haven't.
