No seriously they stores are "opening" the gamecube adaptors themselves and are selling them with a higher markup just like Metroid prime Trilogy and Xenoblade.


like this is all of their supply which didn't go to preorders. None of them have made it onto shelves period.

the fact that the face buttons on the pro controller are so far down makes it a Bad Controller to me when other options are available

It's actually extremely good but I think people have gotten very attached to the good old 'Cube controller and already own a ton of them.

The #1 reason I want the adapter is because I already have some gamecube controllers and this will let me use them with both my Wii U and my PC when the inevitable unofficial drivers release

can't remember the last time hardware other than launch consoles was in this short supply

my brother bought the last one at a local store near his place as a favor for a friend, and immediately started kicking himself when he realized what they were going for on ebay

of all the things I thought would be the "hot ticket item" for christmas this year, i'm really surprised it ended up being this. it could have been the Wii U, or the actual game, or the controllers themselves, but nope.

Don't need a holster if you never stop shooting.

drat, pretty grateful that my friend decided not to gouge me/hock it when he picked me up one. Totally wouldn't have blamed him.
