Today at Goodwill...

I grabbed myself a new GameCube controller for 3 dollars, and also picked up myself a USB Controller. It's very nice, 4 buttons, two on back (I use for start & select), and a D-Pad. The configuration of the buttons is perfect for SNES games. I love it.

gamecube controllers for 3 bucks wtf?

 

[Venice_native]

Random stuff shows up there. It works fine too, and happens to be black to match the rest of my set. But man this USB controller owns.

 

[_JaKE]

nice man, what company makes the usb controller? links? pics?

 

[Venice_native]

Microsoft, I'll get a pic on when I get home.

 

[Laharl]

Sounds like a good deal. I haven't seen one before, though. Ever.

ya same here.

I did buy an actual gamecube for $60 or so, I use it a lot now.

By the way: What's with people and complaining about the gamecube controllers? They're decent.

 

[ChrisH36]

I haven't seen many complaints about hte Gamecube controllers. I hate the N64 ones and the Mario Parties where you had to rotate your control stick to do something. It makes games like Tug O War or the bicycle minigame almost impossible to beat.

 

[Venice_native]

I like them. Atleast they aren't whales like XBOX. Oh, and let me go and upload that picture.

There we go.

The biggest controller I have seen is a Gamepad 64 that I used to own. Now the Z button is broken on it and the Control Stick is locked on the outside edges. But when I got it for my friend for his birthday a few years back, he actually liked it. Cause over time, he develops the comfort in his controllers by "forming a shape" or feel with it in his hands. But the controller I got for him, practically did it for him.

The NES Joystick was rather large, but hell, it was a joystick.

 

[ChrisH36]

Joysticks are all large. For some people, people wish thier penis was that size . I for one don't really like joysticks, it all depends on the button setup and how old the joystick is.

 

[Venice_native]

I never really used it too much, not many games on the NES really utalized it.

 

[ChrisH36]

Its liek the NES Zap Gun. Not many games needed that, except Duck Hunt.

 

[Venice_native]

But Duck Hunt was really fun though. I had a paintball game that used it, too. I still have it actually.

 

[_JaKE]

now the wii remote is our light guns

 

[Venice_native]

I can't wait.

 

[LeapOfFaith]

I dont like Gamecube. Thats just me though.

Yeah, there used to be days where I would spend 3 hours playing that game for reason.
