I think there is 20% off Babies R us coupon floating. Toys R US allows the coupon from babies R US. I don't know if it can be used for this or not? I would jump on it since I recently purchased Wii.

Ok...then where is the better deal for two controllers? I personally have never seen a Wii controller for less than list price.
New remotes can be had on eBay for $30 after shipping if you keep checking the newly listed Buy It Now listings. Cheapest I saw was $27.
That said, I still think this is a hot deal, because it's the first I've seen anywhere of retail having Wii stuff discounted. If you just want to get some controllers from a retail place without worrying about eBay, this is the best deal right now.

I would get the wireless WaveBirds. That way the whole system is wireless, not just the Wii controllers. They work great and we actually play more GC games on our than Wii games.

I was wrong. The others have answered your question correctly....
Also, you can purchase the wireless GameCube controller from GameStop and it works just as well without any of the wires. You just connect the infrered reciever to the top of the Wii. HTH

You need to use the "Classic" controller, which means you can buy the Wii "Classic" controller or you can buy a Gamecube controller.
This is incorrect... Classic controllers can only be used for Virtual Console games. You will need a Gamecube controller to play Gamecube games. As a sidenote, Gamecube controllers can also be used to play Virtual Console games.
Like str82ebay, I would also recommend the Wavebird. They are hard to find retail now and selling at a premium on eBay, but I would check your local GameStop where they go for $17.99 used.
