5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent company, excellent warranty, August 16, 2005
By Suzanne Corrin (Westlake Village, CA USA) - See all my reviews
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
This game controller has a macro feature that can do several functions at once instead of pushing several buttons to achieve the same outcome. The Matcatz controller is totally compatible with the GameCube console. Don't feel you have to pay more to get the GameCube controllers. We've had this one for four years without a problem. Just recently my son had trouble with the figures in the game moving on their own, so I called the 800 number I found at [...] They sent me a new controller within a week. I couldn't be more pleased with the product or with customer service. I would buy again from this company.

5.0 out of 5 stars Micron Controller, February 12, 2005
By Courtney LeBlanc (Nova Scotia) - See all my reviews
I have small hands, so I found the Micron Controller great. It was easy to find all the buttons on it (when I wasn't used to them when I first began playing). I did not find the controller fragile, however. My sisters and I play Super Smash Brothers, and there is a lot of button mashing going on in that game. This controller has stood up to this punishment very well, as we play it all the time, and it's always getting handed around to different people. We got it for Christmas over a year ago, and it still works today as well as it did the first day we got it. This is definitely a good buy if you have small hands, but you really should stick to the regular controller if you have large hands.

2.0 out of 5 stars Don't expect to use this controller for more than 10 months, October 12, 2005
By GMG (Madison, MS US of A) - See all my reviews
I purchased three of these controllers along with my GC, & all three failed at around 9 months. They seem to be fairly susceptible to high-humidity as I took a couple of them apart & found that the screws holding it together & various parts inside the units were corroded.

The standard Nintendo branded controllers are vastly superior in every respect. Spend an extra $5 and get one of those.
