This should be included in that Deluxe bundle, in my humble opinion.
Looks like a 360 controller with the right stick switched around.

That's pretty much exactly what it is
Does it lack rumble like the amazing 100 hour battery life wavebird did? The 20 hour decrease sounds like all they did was swap rf with standard bluetooth.
But if they actually decided to use bluetooth 4.0 LE(low energy) and included rumble that would be amazing. BT LE is what you have in your logitech wireless keyboards and mice that have a bullshit claim of a 2+ year battery life.

And a D-pad that isn't [i]complete ass[/i].
I always thought the 360 controller would be the best controller ever if it simply had a better D-pad, so I'm pretty excited for this.

Just like an xbox 360 controller was a gamecube controller with the A-B-X-Y buttons rearranged in a more boring fashion, plus an extra shoulder button.

The 360 controller is very ergonomic, so it makes sense for other controllers to look like it.
OH my GOD you mean that controllers that fit human hands ARE GOING TO BE SIMILAR?!

Nintendo has D-pads down, they invented the bloody thing.
Also, I don't think "it looks like a 360 controller" is a valid complaint, since, honestly, the 360 controller is very good.

That layout looks weird as hell upon first look.

the gamecube controller fit in my hand incredibly well and still looked distinct.
are wii classic controllers going to be forward compatible with Wii U games? i have two of the pro models and quite like the way they feel and would prefer to not have to replace them if possible

They will be because Nintendo doesn't care about analogue triggers anymore.

Well that saves me like $120 so I guess I'm okay with it, plus I prefer the layout of those controllers.
Now only if we had pressure sensitive L+R buttons ;(
I don't really give a fuck if it's the exact same as the 360 pad. that shit feels good.
I'm going to be using the classic controller pro I got from Monster Hunter if i can because that controller was deigned by an omnipotent being. So good.
That is a shame that it isn't backwards compadable with Wii games.

Oh I was waiting for that one.
Let's look at all the possible variances of a controller that fits human hands, shall we ?

They OBVIOUSLY have a generally resembling form, yet they all have their own shape and layout. As a matter of fact, you can see a very clear logical evolution of controllers from the sega master system to the xbox 360.
But they don't go as far as ripping off the entire shape of the damn thing.

I actually own that controller, and I bring it to SSBB tourneys.

I had a PS2 controller like that, though the keyboard was a USB one and could detach from the controller.

[quote]The new descriptions also confirm that it's not backward-compatible with Wii games. That means any games that use the Wii Classic controller will still need you to plug one into your Wii remote to play on the Wii U.[/quote]
How'd they fuck that one up?
what would even be the point of having a GC keyboard?

Just hold two of the prongs at once depending on the control scheme of the game you're playing.
Seriously, it's not that hard to understand.

Or only hold the middle and right prongs, because almost no games use the d-pad or left bumper. They could have just moved the analogue to the left and only have 2 bumpers, with the d-pad in the middle or no d-pad at all.
