I'm shortly to buy a Wii to play a handful of games that don't use motion controls (I know, I know, that's the whole point of the Wii but I really just want to play a handful of classic games that are Wii exclusive and that don't have motion controls - Sonic Colours, New Super Mario Bros, Donkey Kong Returns) and am looking for one that is preferably backwardly compatible with Gamecube games so I can buy the Gamecube games Mgs Twin Snakes, Zelda Twilight Princess (with better controls) and a few others. I have a couple of questions...
1) Since Nintendo changed the recent batch of Wii's so they don't support backwards compatibility do they still have a controller port for the classic controller? Just curious about this just incase for whatever reason I have to settle for one that isn't backwards compatible, I still want to be able to use a proper pad.
2) I will most likely buy a used model if I cannot find a backwards compatible version new, and am also after a case mod for it if that becomes the case. I have seen a really nice case called the Chameleon which looks very smart and has neon lights inside which change colour. I've looked on Ebay, Amazon etc and cannot find anywhere that still sells this. Can anyone recommend a reliable place for me that sells stuff like this?
3) Lastly, I intend to buy all the Sonic games, Donkey Kong Returns, New Super Mario Bros, Red Steel and maybe the new Zelda game. I'm only interested in what I call "proper games". Anything else that you can recommend that isn't shovelware?
