Look No Wires!
Review of NINTENDO GAMECUBE Controller WaveBird Wireless - game pad by hackersupr

Advantages: No wires, Excellent battery life, Use it with your Wii.
Disadvantages: Bad if you have large hands, Same control issues as the wired pad, No rumble.

The Nintendo Wavebird is the Official wireless controller for the Nintendo Gamecube, Nintendo are known for their controller innovations and they are the first manufacturer to come out with their own wireless controller. Look The Wavebird controller is a dull grey colour, and is not available in any of the Gamecube console colours. Slightly disappointing but it does go with the grey coloured controller port plate on the front of the console. Compared ...
...Price & Conclusion The Nintendo Wavebird controller had an RRP of around £30, prices now are still relatively high as they are out of production, no doubt because you can use the controller with your Nintendo Wii. The price on amazon is £28 for a used controller and £30 for a new one. If you hate the clutter and tangle of cables and don't have huge hands, the Nintendo Wavebird controller is a great choice. The layout is slightly awkward for multiplatform ... Read review

The best wireless Gamecube controller around!
Review of NINTENDO GAMECUBE Controller WaveBird Wireless - game pad by echo786

Advantages: Extremely reliable, traditional GC button layout, fits snugly
Disadvantages: No rumble, frequency co-ordination with multiple wavebirds can get a bit fiddly

...design and reliability that the Nintendo Wavebird still manages to hold its own. Pros The Wavebird, being the Official Nintendo wireless controller, is one of the most reliable controllers you will ever find. It is extremely sturdy, and breaking it is really a mission. The only possible problem is that the rubber on the left analogue stick *can* come off in some circumstances, but save physically chewing on it or it being scratched by a cat, it ...
...very minor issue however. Nintendo have also stopped making these now so the price of these controllers are only going up. They are available in two colours - grey and platinum. Platinum is my personaly favourite, but were never released in the UK so you will likely need to import them from the US if you want to get your hands on them. Overall They are excellent wireless controllers, and extremely reliable. The introduction of the Wii has only ... Read review

Now this is Wireless technology!
Review of NINTENDO GAMECUBE Controller WaveBird Wireless - game pad by gparry49

Advantages: No wires!
Disadvantages: It doesn't come back if you throw it!

Nintendo have always led the way in controller design. First they designed the cross shaped d-pad for the NES, then it was shoulder buttons for the SNES, with the N64 it was the revolutionary analogue stick and now with the Wavebird they've developed the first truly excellent and functional wireless pad. First of all it is identical to the GameCube pad safe for the expanded midsection to house the two AA batteries. I personally think that the GameCube ...
...analogue sticks are by far the most responsive and accurate; the button layout is far more intuitive than the competition, especially the cumbersome Xbox pad. The only fault with the pad design is the awkward location of the Z trigger - though fortunately it is not as essential for most of the console games as the Z trigger was on the N64. The configuration of the four main buttons (A,B,X,Y) is much more suitable for the thumb, particularly the ... Read review
