Given that it lacks joysticks, I'm rather sure you're right.
The question is whether this is primarily supposed to be a Classic Controller that LOOKS like a Super Famicom controller, or a Super Famicom controller that plugs into the Wii Remote. I'm thinking there's the good chance it's the latter, and the "Classic Controller" bit isn't quite what the original Japanese meant; a CC already looks much like a SNES controller aside from the button and plastic color, and making the special gift a differently painted CC just doesn't seem Club Nintendo enough.
Of course, this paves the way for the Famicom/NES, PC Engine/Turbo, Mega Drive/Genesis, and Neo Geo controllers.
Now I'm remembering my bewilderment over the fact that no one has released a 3rd party Classic Controller (of any sort) for the Wii yet.

Oh yeah, I didn't mention in the first post.Oblivion said:
A regular Galaxy OST will be available for all Club Nintendo members for 400pts, or the discount amount of 250pts if you bought and registered Galaxy. The Platinum version has an extra disc with arranged versions. I think the regular version has 28 tracks and the platinum version 53... I can't see now because the site is chugging.

Wowzers! A 2-CD soundtrack! From Nintendo!!
That's the first one since the Nintendo Sound History Zelda the Music CD, isn't it? I'm looking forward to that rip a lot.
I wonder if it'll get a normal release. I for one would be confident if Nintendo just sticked to the bonus routine for releasing their soundtracks - that's not a big loss for them and a big win for us.

I just noticed I got my e-mail from Nintendo about these presents.
I am definitely going with the controller, but the site seems to be getting bombed and I keep timing out. These have to be the coolest Platinum Member present yet. The controller is going to be just pure awesome.

You're right, Balloon Fight was quite a bit of fun. They could totally make a game out of that if they fleshed it out a bit.
Sweet! My "order" went through. The wait until next April is going to suck, but I am pumped for this controller.
I wonder if anyone out there is going to order the calendar...

It takes 400 points actually, but it needs to all be in one year.

I don't know much about the European system, but I assume its similar.
A little piece of paper comes with every official Nintendo product that contains a code which you can register on their website for points. You can often get bonus points for purchasing items within a week or so after they are released. Generally the more expensive the product, the more points. You trade these points in for "presents".
There are various ranks given to members depending on how many points they have obtained in a given year. The ranks don't go away if you spend your points, but they do go away the next year and you have to build it up again.

It doesn't matter when the games were released, it just matters when you decide to register them. Unfortunately, these special platinum member presents are only available for Platinum members of the 2006/10/01 - 2007/9/30 year, so any points you registered after September 30th in Japan go towards the next year.

Wouldn`t this be illegal now that there is an official OST?

I'm going to wait until I get home from work to do my order. The site is running like shit from this office PC.
I see your Balloon Fight, and raise you a Zekkyou Senshi Sakeburain. If that had more than one level, it could be truly awesome. I would get that day one. The CN gift was fun, but it ended too fast.
Zefah said:
Right. The only thing release date of the game affects is the point value when you enter it. Games degrade in point value over time, but newly released games actually have bonus value if registered quickly.
Firestorm said:That classic controller is hawt.
Although didn't they get DS games the last two years? I wanted that Tingle Balloon Fight one
If I remember correctly, 2005 was the Wii universal remote.

I don't have pics, but I'm pretty sure JohnTV or Jonnyram have it. I didn't live in Japan in 2005, so I obviously wasn't able to get my hands on one.
It was basically a universal remote shaped like a wiimote.

The topic reminds me that I still have my Hori Gamecube controller I still didn't try with Virtual Console.
http://www.the-nextlevel.com/features/hardware/hori-digital-controller/
I will definitively try that tonight.
