    What is the normal price?

    And it only arrives before Christmas if you pay for express delivery.

    • That really depends on where you live I guess?

      For me;

      its as follows:

      Choose your Prime delivery option:
      Priority International Delivery : get it by Monday, Dec 28
      FREE Expedited International Delivery : get it by Tuesday, Dec 22 - Thursday, Jan 7
      FREE Standard International Delivery : get it by Thursday, Dec 24 - Thursday, Jan 7

      The paid option (Priority) would guarantee to be here after Christmas.
      The two free have a chance of pre-christmas, but likely January.

  • Thanks OP grabbed one

        I do now if i tell them I have Smash Bros ultimate with 3 x wireless smash bro controllers !

        Got one , thanks OP.

        Really good price at $35. these are hard to find in Australia as well.

      • one controller for playing 2 for throwing at the tv when Minecraft Steve rolls you on quick play

        • Shield the cart ;)

    • Oh this one looks amazing. But ouch! The price

    Thank OP.
    Got a set to go with the purple one I have.
    Can vouch these are great quality.

    You are a legend OP!!

  • Are these as good as the original or Wavebirds?

    • +1

      Yeah they are the closest thing you will get .. officially licensed by Nintendo just not made by them..

      I have been using them for a year and only now has one of them started to give up (one year of hard Smash )

      K rool Main represent haha

  • Shame it doesn't include three Wavebird receivers.

  • thanks, bought!

  • Great! Nearly bought the other day for $150

  • Do these work with Chromecast?

  • OOS!? I purchased a second JoyCon kit for 4 player games, but this/these look way better (and will likely give me less pain playing with the smaller controller).

    Any other advantages with these over the JoyCons? Working on PC is a winner, too! Can probably link these to my shield and play old school Smash!

    • I got a second JoyCons at $90 too.
      But I think this doesn't work on all games.
      It is "mostly just" for Smash Bros.

    • Might have to return the second joycon controller, $80 is a bit too much.
      8Bitdo Wireless Bluetooth AdapteR is also a good option? Have some PS4 controllers.

    Review:
    https://www.androidauthority.com/powera-gamecube-wireless-co…

    "Most people who are interested in this controller want it to play Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. They want a huge A button and the feel of that yellow C stick they know so well from their GameCube days. If that’s what you want, then this controller will work just fine for that specific task. Just remember that there will be no rumble support while you play.

    Outside of Smash, there really isn’t any reason to buy this unless you’re a die-hard Gamecube controller fan. There are other controllers out there with better build quality, better integration with non-Switch systems, and built-in rechargeable batteries. What’s more, they won’t be much more expensive than the asking price for this."

    • Thanks for that. I’ll pass.

  • Here's some more discussion of the same controller from last year.

    https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/502751

  • Got the extra Joy-con controllers for Mario Kart 8 for 4 players.
    But this controller would be more comfortable to use.

    Any other games that would require an extra Joy-con controllers?
    If not, I would need to return the purple & orange extra joy-cons.

    Thanks

  • Is there anyway to use these controllers with XCloud?

  • Good for when they finally release some Nintendo 64 games on the switch online? 😃

    I signed in just to say this. Avoid PowerA controllers like the plague. My kids got 3 for Christmas. ALL of them suffered drifting issues after only 2 weeks of use. You would think that it would only be limited to the Joycons, but the PowerA ones had them too.
    I refunded them since I purchased them from BigW.

    Here's a link to what happened to us:

        Same here. Can anyone recommend a gamepad for Chromecast?

        • Xbox One controller, if budget allows.
