Classic Controller (white)

The Classic Controller (クラシックコントローラ, Kurashikku Kontorōra) is a game controller produced by Nintendo for the Wii home video game console. Taking inspiration from Nintendo's own SNES Controller, it was designed to facilitate traditional video game controls on a console that otherwise prioritized the Wii Remote's motion controls. It originally launched with the console in late 2006 and was the intended control option for the Wii's Virtual Console library. The Classic Controller Pro, a revamp inspired by the GameCube Controller, was later released in 2009.
