Nintendo of Japan add an exclusive controller to their catalogue! Also: a two-disc Galaxy soundtrack.
Club Nintendo, a service in Japan that lets gamers register games and redeem points for cool stuff, has updated its catalog today. Nintendo have gone all-out for fans of the Virtual Console service. Original controllers have been available before, such as the Mario and Luigi themed GameCube pads. But today, Nintendo announced replicas of the Super Famicom (SNES) controllers, compatible with the Wii Remote, and that they will be shipped early next year.
Translated from the official site:
“Super Famicom" version of the Wii Classic Controller
For Platinum members of the club (members with over 400 points) we will be supplying this item for use with the Wii Virtual Console. This is available to order now, but will ship from April 2008.
Super Mario Galaxy Soundtrack : Platinum Version.
81 Tracks from the recently-released Super Mario Galaxy will be available in this 2-disc set. The first disc will contain 28 tracks taken directly from the game, while the second disk will have 53 “variations" of the themes. The discs will also come in an exclusive cover. This item will ship from January 2008.
