I already use my CC with my computer over blutooth, so the adaptor isn’t necessary.

checkout glove pie for pc or wiigi for mac.

I just downloaded Bomberman from the Virtual Console. At present I only have 2 Wii Remotes. If I have 2 classic controllers, can I then play 4 player (2 Wii Remotes + 2 Classic Controllers)? Or does the Classic Controller just replace the Wii Remote?

Thanks,

Alex

I really wish the classic controller would work for GC games. It’d be nice to be able to play some games (THPS series, for example) with this controller, and the wireless would be a nice added plus.

The rating is so high because the good aspects outweigh the bad ones by far. If you read the review with attention you’ll notice that the key word is “comfortable”, and for the first time, in more than 5 years we have first party controller that is as, if not more, comfortable than 3rd party ones (I’m talking about those with rugged/rubbery surfaces).

Thanks for the detailed comments. (The rating seems a bit high given the complaints seen, though.)

My reaction was quite the opposite. While I do appreciate that the controller is light, the back is entirely flat–the controller ends up resting in my fingers rather than in my hands.

Sure the analog sticks are soft but now I have to stretch my left thumb pretty far to reach the middle of the controller which feels really uncomfortable (not to mention hitting thumbs together like you mentioned).

I can’t imagine playing Smash Bros. with that controller or any game for an extended period of time.

At best 3/5 from me.
