Very cheap and functional, it looks and feel cheaper and lesser quality than the Nintendo orginal controls, but works well and so far my nephews have had no problems with it. Definitively a good buy for the price.

I really soemtimes can never tell when a good controller can come from a third party company. Largely, because most of those controllers are never suggested by the regular companies. That is where Mad Catz really has those major companies going in circles. This controller for the Nintendo Gamecube is very simple and easy to operate. It is also a bit smaller in size, but carries out very well. There aren't any fault with this controller. I like it because it is inexpensive, and convient, especially if you can't consider another partner to play with for a Nintendo original Gamecube controller. This is a real must buy.

This controller is a piece of garbage, I have one for my gamecube and I'm buying another controller when I can, the A button sticks like no tomorrow and the buttons sometimes don't react at all or lag a lot, please, burn your money in a fire before you buy this hunk of garbage.

You get what you pay for... The buttons may fail or start sticking after some moderate use. And spending more money to ship the product back to manufacturer for warranty work seems futile.

item was not the one pictured,in the ad, couldnt get a refund, from the company,, wouldnt reccomend doing buisness with this company..

this product is awesome it works great and i got a variety of cool colors. totally awesom

I bought 2 of these but the upc number does not match the product. The company that I bought them from Beach Audio claims it's Amazon's fault that the wrong picture is associated with the upc number. I say it's Beache's fault for not making sure the right picture is with the merchandise that they are selling thru Amazon. What do you think world is it Amazon's fault or is it Beach Audio's fault?

At first this controller worked, and then it started to become a pain. It thinks I'm always pressing down on the joystick, so it makes it impossible to play any games with out lots of downard movement. So it's impossibe to pick teams for MVP basebll. This is what it was like for me at least.

Now, for someone with an actual GameCube System, this 3rd party brand MadCatz makes a great controller buy if you own a Wii like me, you may have problems. On the Wii, The contoller works great for Actual GameCube games, for Some Virtual Console games and Wii Games that are compatable with a A GameCube Contoller like the recently released Mario Kart Wii, The MadCatz Brand should be avoided at all costs. Not all of the controls works with Wii Games compatable with A GameCube controller. For GameCube system owners, This is a great controller. For Wii Owners like me, You are better off using a GameCube Controller officially made by Nintendo.

I bought this thinking it was wireless, it wasn't. But that's not the point. I tried playing with it on my Wii but as it turns out, the analog stick didn't work. When you try to buy game accessories, never buy from a third party company. Don't be lured in by the price, spare a couple of bucks for a brand name.
