Does anybody know if you can use the wii classic controllor on wii u games like black ops? Thanks

The full list of controls for the Wii U version of BO2 are as listed;
Wii U GamePad
Wii U Pro Controller
Wii Remote and Nunchuck
Wii Classic Controller (Pro)

Hope this helped.

It does Thanks. With getting the ZombiU pack at launch i should be able to do four player without having to buy any extra controllers, this is the first time that has happened at a console launch for me.

Downloaded the Sonic & All Stars Racing demo on PS3 this morning. Definitely more of a pure racer than Mario Kart, should be good fun when the WiiU one arrives later this week.

I'm actually looking forward to Wiimote + Nunchuck support for many games. The controls in Metroid Prime were perfect!

I'm not going to buy ZombiU, but I'd hate having to finally get used to twin sticks. It was great on the N64, but I didn't like it on the GC (Timesplitters 2).

The Classic Controller Pro can be used in Black Ops 2 for the Wii U, yes.

The full list of controls for the Wii U version of BO2 are as listed;
Wii U GamePad
Wii U Pro Controller
Wii Remote and Nunchuck
Wii Classic Controller (Pro)

Hope this helped.

Does that mean the original Classic Controller doesn't work with the console then?

Original Classic Controller will work without a doubt, pretty sure Pro and Classic are the exact same thing just PRO has handles.

Wow, pretty damn impressive.

That does some pretty cool flips! 

Seems like its quite impressive! Although i won't be conducting those tests myself!

Naw me neither, always good to know they're still using good ol' Nintendium though.

And here I was having a stroke every time my brother or sister dropped it from the couch onto the carpet.

Nintendium didn't prevent my Wii disc reader from dying from ONE simple drop last month though ...

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh!! The Wii U is just 3 nights away! I'm really hoping that I'll get it a day or 2 early, but some stores are really strict with breaking the street date.

Mine has been dispatched by Zavvi

One of my friend has his dispatched by Nedgame. He'll receive it tomorrow (29th). If I don't get a call by noon, I'm going to stalk the BCC to see when they'll get them.

Zavvi also dispatched mine, hopefully it'll arrive sooner rather than later.
Tomorrow seems very unlikely, but if it's not here Friday I definitely will be a bit annoyed!

Zavvi also dispatched mine, after telling me it wouldn't be dispatched till Friday. My guesses are the people that reply to emails haven't a clue what they're talking about.

If luck is on my side, I should get it on Friday. If not, hopefully it'll be here Saturday morning.

My brother got a text saying it'd be delivered by courier tomorrow, does anyone know what time of day DPD usually deliver? We're gonna be out in the afternoon unfortunately.

DPD are delivering mine tomorrow too. I guess the time depends on where you live from the depot and what part of their route you fall on.

I've had my mail redirected but I'm hoping this parcel does not get redirected as there won't be anyone in the other address. :O I won't get to play on the WiiU till Saturday as it'll be at my parents house.

EDIT: Scratch that! I got an email from them whilst I was AFK. My Wii U is being delivered tomorrow too.

Can they tell you an exact time if you call them?
