[QUOTE="bezem, post: 4880914, member: 319410"] Original Wii Accessories do function on the Wii U; the classic controller just happens to not be supported on NSMBU but the Wiimote sideways is. Your other examples are third party games, so including or not including compatibility for whichever preferred controller was their choice, not Nintendo's; 'consumer confusion' isn't Nintendo's fault, either. If someone can't read a manual or the back of a box to determine controller compatibility than that's their personal failure. Of course Nintendo could make the Pro Controller work in Wii-mode, but they'd essentially be making it work on the Wii as well. This is Wii Development, something they are no longer investing in. You're talking about being annoyed over having to own a classic controller and a Pro Controller, yet you mention some additional IR Blaster thing as third component? I don't even think that would work for one, and for another it again falls under the 'Wii Development' umbrella. I agree classic controller emulation would have been nice, but it again would have required an update to the Wii, and active development for the Wii's OS has long since ceased. You think the Wii U isn't selling due to not making the new controller compatible with the old system (and in some cases vice-versa)? If this were true the Xbox One and PS4 would be dead on arrival.
