Nintendo Japan has listed a handy question and answer FAQ on its official support site for the upcoming Nintendo Classic Mini: Famicom. The company stresses that it isn’t limited edition, but if you want one at launch, then you will need to get a pre-order put down on a site such as Play Asia or Amazon Japan.
Q: Is it sold in limited amounts?
A: No, it isn’t. (Pre-orders may end after a certain amount is reached, but it’s not limited production)
Q: Can I connect Wii controllers or other market USB/wireless controllers?
A: No, you can’t. You can only use the controllers attached here. (The USB slot is for supplying power)
Q: How long are the attached cables?
A: The USB cable (for charging) is about 150cm, HDMI cable is about 150cm, and controller cables are about 80cm each.
Q: Is it [the console] a rechargeable type?
A: No, it isn’t. You need to connect the power supply at all times when playing.
Q: Can I output audio & video through the USB cable?
A: No, you can’t.
Q: Do I need the AC adapter for Nintendo Classic Mini: Famicom in order to play?
A: Even if you don’t have the specific AC adapter, you can still play with the supporting environments.
– USB-compatible AC adapters which can output 5V / 1.0A / 5W or more
– Standard-A USB slots in TVs, PCs and more
P1. 80cm controller wire? That’s what I was afraid of. No sure how that’s gonna work with my tv setup.
And God said, “Let there be 3rd party support,” and there was 3rd party support. And God saw the 3rd party support, and it was good.

There’s not going to be any third party controller support for this one–the controllers are hard wired.
You can buy a long power cable, though.
Afraid of using a screw driver?
It’s exactly like the actual Famicom. Japanese people lives and still live in small spaces. So since the TVs were small back then they sat really close instead.
