plz recommend good wireless gc controlle ...

I want a decent wireless remote, but dont want to pay $90 to play a few old gamecube games on my Wii (wavebird) are there any cheap ones that are decent?plz recommend good wireless gc controlle ...
Really your only option is the Wavebird. I know it costs more, but there's a reason for that. If you're looking for a ''good'' 3rd-party controller, you're not going to find it. They all suck.plz recommend good wireless gc controlle ...
Do they still produce Wavebirds anymore? Is that why the only place to get them is on ebay for a ridiculous price?



I know it's more convenient, but for $90, I'd rather just get 2 brand new wired GC controllers instead.
You can find used ones for $30 shipped but there so old I bet they feel like crap the analog sticks and the buttons. I cant use Wired, im setting about 15 feet away from the wii. Do they plug into the wiimote or the wii its self? [QUOTE=''Chojuto'']Do they still produce Wavebirds anymore? Is that why the only place to get them is on ebay for a ridiculous price?

IGN gave this controller a good review and it has rumble unlike the wavebird.Pelican G3 Wireless [QUOTE=''bob_newman'']Really your only option is the Wavebird.

I just bought a used wavebird off ebay, just under $25 shipped, he said it's new but out of the packaging. I highly doubt that. But if it's used and looks new for that price I wont complain. said it comes with the receiver too.

Like other people have mentioned, the only way to go is with the Wavebird, personally I have 4 of them, bought one new when they first came out and then started buying them as soon as I saw them used and in good condition at stores where they sell/trade/buy used and new games. Not bad at all for $20 per.

I would have to dispute it with my credit card company, the charge and ebay and paypal. Also give him a negative feedback. Thats what I love about using paypal though, they would give me my money back if he lied about that.

I've had once bed experience on E-bay and a not so good one my self. The bad one I was unable to get my money back for stuff I never got since I guess I waited too long. The other one me and the seller came to an agreement, but only after a lot of messaging back and forth and E-bay could not help me on it. LOL, I'm trying to remember what that last one was about and I just can't recall.
Don't buy the wavebird. It's an inferior controller. It's bigger, uses batteries, and doesn't have rumble. Buy the regular GC controller and get an extension wire so it reaches anywhere.

I have a one year old daughter, wires across the living room arent good. But thanks for the input
Oh if you have a one year old daughter, I see why wires could be a problem. But this guy has a pretty good point:
