The Wii hardware (bluetooth, wireless, and SD Card) is physically turned off when the console is in GC mode.

Notice the dimpled area on the top and bottom edges, the exact same curvature of the sides, and the shoulder buttons look clear but it's hard to tell. Oh, and the PSP has an X button, too. Sony invented the letter X, so they should sue.<br><br>(Warning: last two sentences contain sarcasm.

Go look up a picture of the original (non-slim) PSP and look at it side by side with this controller.
