Classic Gaming

Jessie Atkin posted a new blog on Digital Landing! Read about the new controller to match the classic style.

Yes, the point of the Nintendo Wii is its originality and specific controller use and game play, but that doesn’t change the fact that Nintendo itself has been cool for quite some time before this.

In the respect there’s the Super Famicom Classic Controller, only recently released to the general public. It looks like the greatness that was the classic super famicom controller back in the day. It’s your basic gray with those red, yellow, green, and blue buttons, and its ready to connect to the Wii for the first time.

It’s about $80, which is definitely steep for one controller, but if you’re up for the nostalgia maybe it’s worth it to you. So while I wouldn’t recommend the controller for games like Wii Sports, Mario Party, or Wii Fit, it could work really well for Super Smash Brothers.
