Nintendo bringing new Wii controller to Japan

It looks like the offspring of a GameCube controller and the "Classic" controller for the Wii.

It looks more like a DualShock controller to me. I mean, look at the buttons configuration. Exactly the same.

looks to me like I'll be ordering some strait from Japan.

There was no set release date for the controller, but it will include the same wireless functionality as the Wii Remote.

The new controller will be very similar to the Classic controller but will add two more shoulder buttons

is the purpose of this controller have anything to do with needing a more functional input device for the type of games that actually make money and that the average gamer will like to play?

Good, finally a real controller for my Wii that I don't play because the gimmicky nunchuck thing is a pain in the butt.
