Anyone know where online or in a store I can get a Thrustmaster Wii VC/GCN controller? :lolo-spin:

Amazon. I checked. In the UK Amazon they are £12 down from £14.

Does it rumble with Classic Games?

It is Fully Gamecube Compatible? (The slowdown Button would add an extra level to Ikaruga, I'd bet)

So there is a controller called the Thrustmaster for a console called the Wii. What more do I have to say? And Luigison, I put this under all annoying question threads; www.google.com

Yeah; Um, He actually wanted help Locating a controller for the VC in the Hardware section. Its a valid question.

Spore, I know it's an annoying question. I've searched Google, Google shopping, Amazon, Best Buy, Walmart, Target, GameStop, Game Crazy, Circuit City, and several other sites/stores and still couldn't find any. I only saw one used on Amazon, but they want $40 plus shipping for it. I was hoping someone here had some insight to a source I had overlooked. Sorry. BTW, I'm in the US and don't want to pay twice retail for them (I want two).

Well after five minutes of searching for a reasonably priced, sexually named Wii controller, there isn't much I can say. Many other people can't find one either. Just buy a normal controller or something.

The Shaft? The Thrustmaster? We're getting closer to depravety. I predict 2008 will see the Orgasmotron.

BTW, Thrustmaster is the manufacturers name, most famous for making flight sticks for the PC. It's not just a dodgy name plastered just on this controller.

I can still laugh at that other controller called The Shaft though, right?

I want to get a Joystick for My Wii. Then I could have the real Metal Slug experience...
