If it were wireless it would be a wavebird and not have rumble.  If it had the motion detecting in it it would be a Sixaxis and suck (also, then it would be a Wii controller with tons of buttons, not Gamecube).  I always play Brawl with a GCN controller, but I'm sick of having to choose between rumble and moving my Wii off of my TV onto the floor where the cord can reach.  This will help tremendously.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Gendreavus]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 9th 2008 7:37PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Nintendo re-launching GameCube controller... in Japan]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/09/nintendo-re-launching-gamecube-controller-in-japan/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/09/nintendo-re-launching-gamecube-controller-in-japan/</guid><description><![CDATA[Ahem.

They work fine and they seem to still have some in stock so if you are in the UK you might want to have a look. There order system is a bit strange though so make sure you read carefully as it asks for lots of things seperately (like house number and street name). <br><br>Direct link to wavebird controller <a href="http://www.softuk.com/Nintendo_Gamecube_Product_View.asp?ProdID=GC0002" rel="nofollow">http://www.softuk.com/Nintendo_Gamecube_Product_View.asp?ProdID=GC0002</a><br><br>Disclaimer: I am a customer only but was very impressed with the quality of service and general friendliness from whoever runs the company :)]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Morgan]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 9th 2008 6:57PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Nintendo re-launching GameCube controller... in Japan]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/09/nintendo-re-launching-gamecube-controller-in-japan/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/09/nintendo-re-launching-gamecube-controller-in-japan/</guid><description><![CDATA[That would be great, i loved the Game Cube controllers.  They should really think about re-releasing the Wave Birds also.  I thought id mention that upon hitting the link on the picture on the page on the read link it brings you to a comparison page of all controller options.  This page shows the controller in PURPLE similar to the original game cube controller.  So maybe there just showing a photoshop of the Game Cube controller to match the Wii.
