If you enjoy playing classic games on your Wii on a more “normal” controller, then you’re pretty much stuck using Nintendo’s controller which must be tethered to the Wiimote. In this day and age, who wants to do that? Don’t worry, Thrustmaster has you covered.

The Thrustmaster T-Wireless NW gamepad isn’t going to use Nintendo’s wireless signal, so you’re going to have to plug in a dongle to make it work. That’s better than plugging the controller into the Wiimote. You’ll be able to use your new controller from up to 30 feet away.

The controller supports vibration feedback, so you’ll get that nice rumble feeling that you know and love. The controller is priced at $19.99 and will be available in October.

This is great, I bought some VC games like Mario cart and Donkey Kong Country but it sucks to play them with the gc controller, and I HATE the cable situation.
I can’t wait to get this accessory so I can start playing other games that require the “classic” controller from anywhere in my appartment, wire free!!!.
