Well, it is a necessity... - By: Luke Malkin, 04 Apr 2008 
It's well worth kitting your gamecube out with 4 of these, they're a cheaper alternative to the wavebird (Why not get yourself one of those & let your friends use these ones?).
I've always felt Nintendo make the best controllers, I was reluctant to leaving the N64 controller behind when moving up a generation to the gamecube, but I needn't have worried. The ergonomics have fit me perfectly & everything's easy to get hold of. Like the Xbox controller, it doesn't feel like it may falll apart either, yet it isn't as bulky.
But the main reason to get these is because the Gamecube is much better experienced in multiplayer, with Super Smash Bros. Meelee being my personal highlight. You simply need these controllers to experience completley the world of the gamecube, & with official ones now being at lower prices, you can buy them & not have your friends argue that they lost because they had "the dodgy Logic 3 controller".
Beware unofficial controllers sent as substitute - By: Woody, 03 Feb 2008 
This listing clearly shows an official nintendo gamecube controller. However the controller I was sent was a substitute & not the official controller I expected - Beware!
Best pad out there - By: T. Clarke, 05 Sep 2006 Without a doubt, the best pad available, for one of the best quality consoles out their. Where-as Sony live by the reputation of the now 12 year old, & dated Playstation pad, Nintendo are always looking for something new, something to enhance the gamers expierience. This is the best pad they've made & its still the best now. The buttons are alll just in the right places, the shoulder buttons (L & R - the grey ones) are lovely & chunky, & reaact to pressure, so on certain games, how much pressure you apply will affect the game.
As soon as its even in your hands, you can tell the hours of research have easily paid off. Well done Nintendo! Lets hope the controller for the new console is even more adventerous.... :)
Best controller - By: , 29 Sep 2005 Well i bought a gamecube a couple of weeks ago & i thought what a weird controller, but when i held it in my hand it felt like there was nothing there, & the buttons were perfectly placed, the thumbstick is good (N64 thumb stick) & the C stick is good. It is light to. I then held a Xbox controller (Controller S) & it was uncomfortable. The A button is perfect & the shoulder buttons are done very well, & alll the other buttons like Y,X,B & Z are alll perfect. Well done Nintendo. If i could give this 10 stars i would. Kepp making those controllers like you do. 5/5 10/10
The Best Controller ever! - By: , 28 Sep 2004 The PS2 controller is smalll, fiddly and, overalll, pretty rubbish. The Xbox controller is more comfortable, but twice the size it needs to be. The GameCube one, however, balances everything perfectly. It's not too bulky, but not too smalll either. It shaped so that it fits perfectly into your hands reallly comfortably, & alll the buttons are well spaced out so that while you don't have to stretch across it in order to reach alll the buttons, you are unlikely to accidently press 2 at once.
