Sounds kind of cool. The article says that they connect to the Gamecube controller ports, despite the picture showing a USB connection....

Eh. I'll stick to using the Classic Controller... when I get one.

Sounded great at first.

Before you go digging around for your old gamepads, consider that each adapter costs $19 (plus $6 S&H per order), roughly equaling the cost of Nintendo's Classic Controller, which offers greater compatibility and semi-wireless freedom.

Maybe for the N64 controller but I don't see the point for S/NES. All you have to do is turn the Wiimote you already have sideways and you've got a decent NES controller and the Classic is a great SNES stand-in. So what's really the benefit of using the original controllers?
