Hey guys ive been looking for the Pelican's G3 Wireless with Rumble controller, the one with rumble is the Pelican G3 Wireless PL-7008. I don't care if its new or used as long as it works.. I don't really care what color it is, as long as its the rumble controller model.. Price I'm willing to pay for it all depends on the condition of the controller, I'm pretty open minded about it, any reasonable price ill accept.

I really want this controller, ive been looking like crazy everywhere and just cant find it cry . So please someone sell it to me if you have one laying around the house, or if you see a store in your area that has it.

Yea man, i had this controller 4 years ago and it rocked. (Then i sold my gamecube and everything)

They stopped producing them.

Nintendo stopped producing the Wavebirds also.

I bought them as soon as i saw them, these things are impossible to find haha.

You may think, why is this dude so stoke about some 3rd party crappy controller lol, well its not, when i had it, this thing was great. Its the best Gamecube wireless controller there is IMO..
Here are other peoples reviews saying the same thing lol.

If i put it for sell, it would be for half the price of what i paid for both (which was $40 without shipping).. But before i go into the selling plan, i wanna test them and make sure they work fine before i try to sell em to someone. So yea i think ill be selling the extra one, unless something pops up like sister or mom wanting to play which i highly doubt hahaha, or if either of the two are broken, which once again i doubt, since when i had them they always worked fine from day to the day i sold them..

Yea it all depends on what controller it is, like a while back i bought a wireless controller for my ps2 which had like a 2 second delay, worst experience ever. But thats why its smart to research the controller to see what users think, ahead of time.
