5 out of 5 stars Gamecube/ Wii controller   July 19, 2010

I will only use first party accessories when it comes to controllers so Im glad that nintendo chose to re-release this product because of Wii games like Mario Kart Wii and SSB Brawl that can use this controller instead of the classic controller or Wii remote. The quality is always good with nintendo products plus the cable is now 3 meters long VS the old 2 meter cables on the original GC controllers. My only wish is for nintendo to release this product to the rest of the world and not only in Japan so it would be cheaper and I could buy it anywhere. Amazon or whoever they may get it from imports these made in china controllers from Japan.

This controller is exactly what I have been looking for months now. I tried Ebay but the two i bought from there were NOT what they were advertising. When I came across this controller on amazon I was a little sketchy as to buy it, so i took a shot. When the controller arrived it was exactly what they advertised in picture and description. It works perfectly and I have had no troubles with it. it also shipped out quite fast! very happy with this and suggest everyone else use this product!

I ordered this pretty much exclusively to play SSBB competitively. It arrived quickly, and I was surprised by the length of the cord; the cord really gives you the option of not sitting in lasic surgery range of the TV while playing.

The controller works smoothly and responds well. For Brawl, I removed the springs in the shoulder buttons and the operation of them remains solid. I even sanded and painted the remote with good results.

Overall, it's a name-brand remote... what do you expect? It's well worth the money to buy this over a knock-off brand that has cheaper internals and cuts corner on quality.



4 out of 5 stars Nothing New, But Certainly Useful   June 10, 2010

Really, there's not much to say about this. It's more or less identical to the original Gamecube controller from years back. The only differences are the new color(remember, the original controller was purple) and the cord is a little longer. Personally, I would rather Nintendo reissue the awesome Wavebird, but still, I'm glad they at least put this out. It's certainly great for anyone who wants to play Gamecube games on their Wii. Definitely a better route to take than going on eBay or wherever and buying an old used one that will be in god knows what kind of condition. Once you get this, go track down some of those classic Gamecube titles like The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker and Eternal Darkness! You'll be glad you did. There are a lot of excellent Gamecube games that deserve a second chance.

This controller is a great buy, and is very useful on Wii games like Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Mario Kart Wii, and many others, and of course it's a necessity if you're going to play Gamecube games on your Wii (just don't forget to also get a Gamecube memory card as well to save your Gamecube game files -- SD cards on the Wii won't work for Gamecube games). The cord is a good length and the buttons are nice and responsive, as I would expect from an official controller (I tend to shy away from buying third-party controllers).
