Kuro Classic Pro Controller
Thie is feels much better than the first model classic controller & it's black. What more can you ask for?!?! ^_^ I reccommend it if you've got the spare cash since it's not out in America yet.

Best controller for Virtual Console Games!
This controller is a "must have" for all the retrogaming lovers!
It's the same design as a PS controller or a SNES controller so all the old gamers are in total confidence. The buttons and the stick are really good.
The only default are the shiny black color who loves "fingers" and the wire which is really small.
Buy it and you'll be happy ^o^

What all Pro Evo fans need!
The truth is that I bought this pad to play Pro Evo, and despite the d-pad not being up to standards, this is a fantastic pad. In some respects, I prefer this to the PS3 pad. The shoulder buttons are single click, unlike the analogue style on the PS3. For games like PES, you need quick responses and analogue just doesn't cut it. All the other buttons are well placed and al in all, this is a very comfortable pad. The main reason for buying this instead of the original classic controller is because of the two side grips. Anyone else who's played PES or any other game on the Wii with the original classic controller will probably have experienced cramp at some point. This new pad eliminates such pain and is a joy to use. I one issue is with the d-pad. Unfortunately it feels cheaply made, and I found that my characters didn't always walk in the direction that I wanted. For example, when you press right, your character will walk up + right or down + right. It was enough of a issue that I've changed to the analogue stick completely. Fortunately, because of the ridges, the analogue is great to use and shouldn't hinder ever the biggest PES players :-)
Bottom line: Buy it, you won't be disappointed.

Great!
Much more comfortable to hold than the original classic controller and the cable coming out of the top of the controller looks better and is much more practical!

New Style, New Color!
I've had the white Wii with white Classic Controller since launch. I've been waiting for a black version ever since.
I much prefer black consoles over white, and this doesn't disappoint.
While the old controller had the classic SNES-style roundness, the new handles make the controller easier to handle.
And as for the Z buttons, I much prefer the new PSX-style R1/R2 (over/under) compared to the old R buttons on the inside.
Overall, the color is what made me buy this but I've found that the new layout just adds to the old controller style, improving on an already good thing.
