I have modded it to look (software wise) exactly the same as the USA/EU Classic NES, with English games as well. I'm happy. Don't need the American version now (unless I find it cheap, I suppose).

Right, BUT... the inside motherboard is the EXACT SAME as the NES board, meaning you can wire up Wii Classic Controller extension cables into it. I have plans to do that and make it look very nice and Wiggy-like.
The retail of the Japanese, I believe is about the same as the US, $60. I paid $70 shipped. Not bad for an extra (tiny) controller.
I will post pics of it after my "surgery". I'm waiting on my package of 10 Wii extension cables.

After removing the Famicom controllers, you could solder the end to the end of an extension cable with some shrink tubing (essentially just add a connector to the end). Then you could still use the Famicom controllers.
