Retro Adapter hooks NES, SNES and N64 controllers up to the Wii
One of the Nintendo Wii's best features is the Virtual Console, a feature that allows you to play loads of old games from previous systems on the Wii. Unfortunately, playing old games with a new control doesn't feel quite right. When you grew up with a certain controller in your hand, it's tough to make the switch. The Komodo Retro Adapter solves that problem.
For $20, you'll be able to plug in old NES, SNES and N64 controllers to play the games the way the developers originally intended. It may finally be that excuse you need to toss your old consoles out. After all, with the Virtual Console there's no need to waste space with old cartridges anymore. Awesome.

I'm a hypocrite, because I will probably buy this. However, the idea of paying to have the game on virtual console, even though you clearly have the original system laying around if you have the controller is...go America (japan?)...AMERICA!

DO WANT!
I have a SNES adapter but that's the only thing it supports. I've wanted an NES and N64 adapter but ever since sik-lang(sp?) was shut down they've been hard to come by. : (
