It is the first channel on the menu and cannot be moved. It displays a preview icon of the game currently inside the disc slot and plays a unique jingle when selected; if a [[Nintendo GameCube]] game is in the slot, it does not have a preview and only displays the Nintendo GameCube logo and plays the default GameCube startup jingle when selected. When a disc is loading, as seen in the picture, the Nintendo GameCube and Wii discs are shown spinning, and whichever disc type that was inserted will lower into an opening denoting a disc reader. | ||

The '''Wii Remote''' (also known as the "Wiimote") is the standard game controller for the Wii. It has a rectangular shape, resembling a television remote, making it unique from other consoles' controllers. It consists of several buttons (one behind ({{button|wii|B}})) and a directional pad ({{button|wii|Pad}}) as well. The Wii Remote also has a power button ({{button|wii|power}}), which can be used as a remote to either turn the Wii console on or off, rather than pressing the power button on the machine itself. | The '''Wii Remote''' (also known as the "Wiimote") is the standard game controller for the Wii.

While the Wii Remote can be used for NES [[Virtual Console]] games, it cannot be used for SNES and N64 Virtual Console games because it cannot be mapped to emulate an older controller properly. | |||

This revision features the {{button|wii|ZL}} and {{button|wii|ZR}} buttons as full-fledged shoulder buttons, like the {{button|gcn|L}} and {{button|gcn|R}} buttons on the Nintendo GameCube controller, as well as added controller grips. However, the {{button|wii|L}} and {{button|wii|R}} buttons are no longer pressure-sensitive, unlike with the original Classic Controller. The controller is also slightly bigger than its old revision. The Classic Controller Pro was released in Japan on August 1, 2009 in both black and white colors. It was subsequently released in Europe and North America in November 2009<ref>Siliconera Staff (October 20, 2009).
