Found these today while looking around. I bought 2, I'll try them out tonight and let everyone know how good they work. Seemed like a good deal. These are not nintendo brand ones, but a lot cheaper than a used wavebird. |

I know, I was just saying it is a cheaper price than the wavebirds. Didn't get to try them out, but if your trying to budget like me, its a good price. Quality idk yet. |

My point. But its funny when K-mart was selling wavebirds w/ Mario Party 4 or other games for $19.99 clearance. Wish I had bought all 10 they had (a year or so back). Only bought one and then sold the wavebird before they started fetching a good penny. |

I actually bought two and scored a third free. YES!
And they're not fetching $80 - the three I sold on Amazon were listed at 37.99 or so. I imagine you can get them as low as $30 on eBay if you're patient.

Speaking of 3rd party wireless GC controllers.
I recently bought one w/ rumble off ebay for $16 shipped. It's generic, but works brilliantly.

Because if those douchebags won't start making (printing) more gamecube games, why would they make more controllers? |
