This controller works very well for the Nintendo Wii. Plugs right into the Wii remote. The buttons respond very well and the cross pad is sturdy and stays in place. You can play games you download from the Wii shop Channel. I have played, Secret of Mana, Super mario brothers, Super mario RPG, Kid Icarus and many more with this controller.The only thing i don't like about the controller was that the cord was made underneath instead of on top, so from time to time the cord gets in your way, but it's still a good controller to use.
