On the whole, people are pretty pleased with the NES Classic Edition – not withstanding stock issues. However, there is one complaint that’s been mentioned here and there. For some players, the controller’s cord is just too short.
Here’s an interesting thing about the controller: it packs in the same communication protocol as the Wiimote. Both use I2C, which has limitations with speed and length.
Had Nintendo gone with another communication protocol, it would have required new controllers just for the NES Classic Edition. On top of that, it wouldn’t have been compatible with the Wii U or Wii.

Development on Cryamore is starting to reach its end, and the team is now looking to ensure that Kickstarter backers properly receive their rewards. In terms of Nintendo platforms, the title is still slated for Wii U. No Switch version is currently planned.
NostalgiCO said in a Kickstarter update this week that the team doesn’t have any plans to support Switch. That being said, if anything changes, backers who completed a survey would be able to message the team to modify their preferred platform.
