The definitive Wireless Controller

The Nintendo wavebird is unique, effective, and ahead of its time. Indeed it's Nintendo's first radio controller and one that works with 3 generations of its consoles. Lightweight, sturdy, and provides a great degree of control. It's a controller that is both ahead of its time and retro. Timeless yet nostalgic.Read full review

Good product

Wavebirds is the original Nintendo branded wireless GameCube controller. As far as I know, its got the best quality. They can be expensive but it worth it to get something that will last over time.>
There are many cheaper unbranded ones that could be as good. But I personally didn't want to risk my money and back and forth returns just to find out which ones.

Always pay attention and look at all the listing photos and the description, not just the title. There are some tricksters out there.Read full review

Thank you

I bought a controller, receiver bundle about a week ago, and the X and Y buttons were stuck. Couldn’t return it, so I thought “heck.” Looked here for a replacement, and I lucked out. The controller was pretty much brand new. Well takin care of. Plus I got a bonus game and charger that I could try on my GBA. All for like 13 dollars! Im extremely satisfied. Thanks again!Read full review

Ah, ye olde Wavebird :)

Great controller! Makes a Super Smash party with friends a lot easier to manage, and works very well! These are older tech so they work better when pointed generally AT the receiver, but that's the only downfall (and that was a limitation of the time, so I'm not complaining - just a warning to those who expect it to work like the newer PS/Xbox controllers).Read full review

A true classic

This controller was created in a weird shape but there is no doubt that it is a very great and comfortable controller to use on mostly any game especially Mario Kart: Double Dash, the shape of the Y and X buttons are strange but it doesn't really bother me it works fine with any game, overall it is a very well made controller, it's a perfect collectors item for any true gamersRead full review

It does the job, but needed a clean.

Bought this product a couple of weeks ago and so far I have had no mechanical problems with it. As is with most of these wavebirds, this unit saw a lot of use and was pretty dirty. Not a big deal as I was able to clean it without any issues.

That being said -

Pros:
- Works as described

Cons:
- General wear and tear
- Needed a deep clean

A MUST Have for Collectors

This controller was actually brand new sealed. Worth a lot of money and still valuable. The controller still work perfectly well and feels like nostalgia. Amazing purchase.

Stands the test of time flawlessly

Few controllers can be this good, innovative, comfortable, solid and still feel good to use 15 years from its conception. Being wireless doesn't take away any of the characteristics that made this controller great. A must have for any Nintendo user.Read full review

Fantastic and responsive

Best controller I have ever bought for the GameCube. I can play emulated games without a mess of wires in peace. Although the thumb stick has yellowed a bit from age, and there was a bit of dirt on the sides, it is a must buy for those who play with a mess of cables.Read full review

Nice controller

Controller is great. Works perfectly fine and is in very good condition. Only one scuff mark and a small nick but other than that it’s in perfect condition. Hooks up to my Nintendo Wii console and has no corrosion in the battery port. I recently got into retro gaming and this controller is something I’ve always wanted for the GameCube.Read full review
