Classic Controller of the Day

Classic Controller of the Day

Until now, the only ways to get a Wii-compatible SNES controller involved hardware hacking or being a Japanese member of Club Nintendo. ThinkGeek is making things a bit easier for the retro-minded, though, with its own SNES-style Wii accessory.

The Classic Super Famicom Controller (not to be confused with Club Nintendo's Super Famicom Classic Controller) features the same shape and brightly-colored buttons as a '90s SNES/Super Famicom controller at the low price of $20.

It's compatible with Virtual Console games or any Wii game that lets you use the Wii Classic Controller instead of the Wiimote.

The opening sequence of 1993's SNES smash hit StarFox gets a contemporary HD upgrade from YouTuber Rickonami, who previously gave the same treatment to Earthbound.

Aside from one little mistake -- James McCloud is Fox's father, not Fox's real name -- it's quite the upgrade.

All ships check in!!

Redditor Echoobrain's custom Nintendo arcade cabinet, complete with Link and Triforce detailing, might be the most elaborate case ever created for a SNES.

Although it only has one joystick, a second controller is hidden in a drawer on the front of the case for two-player action.

The cabinet is compatible with any SNES game, and Echoobrain is considering installing a MAME system to add classic arcade games to the mix, too.
