I guess I just get the feeling that Nintendo will put out a controller which is identical to the GC controller in feel and use, but better in some way (ie wireless in the same way a wiimote is).

Yeah, I was wondering the exact same thing. I know they DO have wireless gamecube controllers out, but I'm not sure how well they work with the Wii... has anyone tested?

But you're right, it does seem likely they'll release a "Classic GC" controller.
