Nintendo announced the price for the classic controller in Japan, 5,000 yen ($42). Before you cry foul it’s a package deal one retro controller and 5,000 Wii points for 5,000 yen. That isn’t too bad a deal since the 100 yen equals 100 Wii points. Nintendo is pretty much giving the controller for free as long as you pay them in advance for your retro console fix.
Price for virtual console games:
NES – 500 points
Super Nintendo – 800 points
Nintendo 64 – 1,000 points
This just goes to show you, even when nintendo is money hungry, they do there best to give us whatever they can.
Anyone who says xbox> wii is an idiot, and i own both :]

Now there’s a deal I could get behind. Not ENTIRELY sure I could spend all those points right off the bat, but with a controller in tow it’d be a lot easier. Hope they bring it stateside.
