Designed for accessibility and extended gameplay comfortDual analog sticks and ergonomic button layoutRechargeable battery lasts up to 80 hours on single chargePlease note - Not compatible with Wii system or games
I use the wii u pro controller as well as the wii u gamepad and it has a similar button layout. It seem to work out just fine for me and I find it less awkward then the playstation layout on the dual shock controllers.
You could use a Wii U Pro Controller!
Not confirmed, this is my personal speculation

Don't forget this isn't 'dozy 8 we're talking about either. We're talking about the beloved Nintendo, the very company that might as well be the gaming world's Catholic Church. A company that, in the minds of the devout, can do no wrong, reguardless of if they release the approximately very same 4 flagship games a year since the Bush Senior administration.
To make matters worse its coming from someone who might as well look like a representative of the Devil himself, EA. Had this come from Gabe, or Sony, or Activision, who in this analogy are the Protestants, we'd might listen to this critism.
But no this came from "EA" who obviously "hates Nintendo" and therefore "hates fun" as well, which means we have to burn the heretic's house down right?
Lets be real here, yes the Wii was a good idea. Instead of a step forwards they took one sideways, it clearly worked well for them, but for the WiiU to work in today's market, they needed to leap two steps forward to retake their lost preformance ground. Which they didn't, they made hardware that was competitive five years ago.
Also, don't you believe that Nintendo doesn't want to directly compete with the new generation, because if not this wouldn't exist.
Nintendo dropped the ball, sure hardware development is "hard" and "it takes a while to figure everything out", but if your shit is competing with last year's ipod touch, you fucked up.
As you can see here the real Pro Controllers have the Wii U symbol on the top, unlike the one you linked. That ebay one seems to be a knockoff, probably of Chinese origin. I would personally just recommend getting a real one.
I don't get it, I see plenty of them at a decent price on both Amazon and the usual import sites:
Nope it's a bit more complex than that.
List of "Classic" controllers:
There's always the Wii U Pro Controller. But any lower than tournament level, who the hell is willing to buy 4?

Yeah, there is a Wii Pro Controller that works. But you plug it into the Wii Remote for it to work. After that it's a normal controller. It's very similar to a PS2 controller but it doesn't have clicky sticks. It comes in 3 colors, so it's up to you which one to pick. If you want a white one, buy it here. If you want a black one, buy it here. If you want a golden one, buy it here. There is always the Wii U Pro Controller which comes in both white and black, but that only works on Wii U games and not Wii games.
You can't. Here's the next best thing.
Do you mean this thing?
Because yes, those don't work in Brawl (or any Wii games for that matter)
i believe he is referring to these

It depends on what games you want to play.
The old school Wii Remote and Nunchuck will work on many multiplayer games and are also necessary for playing any Wii games
However, if you want to play Wii U games, you can also choose the Wii U Pro Controller. (which can NOT be used when playing original Wii games. Only for Wii U titles)
I have found that owning one of these isnt necessary, I have been able to get by with 4 players on my Wii U using only the supplied gamepad and 4 old Wii motes (nintendo land, mario kart, mario bros can all work with the old wii motes).
It's also probably worth mentioning that this is a Wii subreddit, and your question relates to a Wii U.
I don't mind one bit...but you know what people can be like :)
the old Wii remotes were upgraded towards the end of the life of the original Wii, so if you plan on getting Wii remotes, make sure you get the Wii Remote Plus models, to ensure you can use them on everything (some games require the added "Plus" functionality to work)
There are a number of controller made by Nintendo for both systems.
Wii:
Wiimote + Nunchuk
Wii Classic Controller
Wii Classic Controller Pro
Wii U:
Wii U Gamepad
Wii U Pro Controller
All are made by Nintendo. Just what I could think of off the top of my head, I may be missing some for either system.
