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 can be used for NES [[Virtual Console]] games but not for SNES and N64 Virtual Console games because the Wii Remote cannot be mapped to emulate an SNES or N64 controller properly.

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. When held horizontally, its button layout is similar to that of an NES controller, with the {{button|wii|1}}, {{button|wii|2}}, {{button|wii|+}} and {{button|wii|-}} buttons taking roles of {{button|NES|B}}, {{button|NES|A}}, {{button|NES|start}} and {{button|NES|select}}, respectively; example of this control scheme includes ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'', mimicking the control scheme of the NES ''Super Mario'' games with holding the Wii Remote sideways. The Wii Remote can be used for NES [[Virtual Console]] games but not for SNES and N64 Virtual Console games because the Wii Remote cannot be mapped to emulate an SNES or N64 controller properly.
