GCN Controller Problems: How long is the warranty?!

My Nintendo branded Spice controller just stopped going left and right on the analog stick. I've thrown away my packaging and forgot how long the warranty is. (I bought it back in November [18th I think], but did not open it until Christmas.)

Does anyone know?

Thanks...

(I was playing Super Monkey Ball when it quit out...)

Note: I found a repair center listed on their site, but it's after hours already... I'll call Monday...

Conviently died in its 4th month... (and I bought it from Best Buy and was not offered a replacement plan... do they do that on controllers?)

Contact Nintendo anyway-----------from what I've heard from other people on this baord, Nintendo's really good with customer service. Maybe you can get some kind of deal for a new one if you tell them about it.
