Best Wireless GC Controller?
I need some advice on the best wireless Gamecube controller to get. I was at Gamestop earlier today and saw a Madcatz and Gamestop model? Which one is better? Or is there another one I should get?

Remember the Golden Rule for video game accessories such as controllers and memory cards: First party is always always always always better than third party.
In my younger (and stupider) days, I bought a few third party memory cards for the PS1 and N64. They all broke within a few months of use, and I lost all my saves and hard work. I have never had a problem with first party devices.
Yes third party accessories may be a little cheaper, but the cliche "you get what you pay for" is definitely true. Third party accessories are cheaper because they are crappier. I learned that the hard way.

Wavebird without question, but I will agree that Logitech is the one exception to the third party rule. Never, ever buy anything from companies like Pelican or Madcatz.
