Third-Party SNES-style Wii U Pro Controller Appears Online

I am totally in love with this. I don’t know if I’m getting a Wii U, but this makes me want one more.

Mark Raby of Geek.com:

The “Wii U Controller – SNES Version” has appeared on the website of Australian video game retailer EB Games. It has a price tag of 48 Australian dollars ($49.50), making it around $30 cheaper than the regular Pro controller. Interestingly enough, this year marks the 20th anniversary of the Super NES system in Australia.

Of course, this is a third-party controller so there is always the risk that it will not perform as well as the official Nintendo version, but this is most definitely going to appeal to the long-standing Nintendo faithful. It carries a release date of November 30, the same date as the launch of the Wii U in Australia.
