It's backwards compatible with Wii games, peripherals, controllers, accessories, what have you. Very cool.
Time to sell the Wii.
Well, honestly, I should have sold the Wii about a year ago - still, I should probably sell it now before it devalues anymore.

I've always thought it was closed to the public?

It's just closed to those who don't have connections. Don't worry, he'll be more than glad to tell us how he's getting in.

Lol, that is a weird first post, isn't it?
Maybe now Nintendo will acknowledge Metroid has a fanbase?

The question here is: Is this compatible with gamecube controllers?
Because I don't want to change how I play Smash

In the case of the PS3 controller that's not true though. The hardware inside a PS3 controller is pretty expensive. There is basically a mini-CPU inside of it.
I still think it's overpriced though, and I'm not saying it was vastly improved. Just saying there is a reason behind the pricing.

Just saw the Darkness II trailer, can't wait. Huge spoiler for people who never played the first one though. Oh well. You guys should all come up with a list of everything you're looking forward post E3

I'm sweating that one, too. I love the gamecube controller and the fact that no one has said anything about it yet...that bothers me.
