Wavebird my 50th Review!
Well, this is my 50th review on Amazon. I saved this review for a special something called the Wavebird Wireless controller for the Nintendo 'cube. <
> <
>This is by far my favorite controller, even now with such greats as the SixAxis and the Wii-mote, I still love the ol' Wavebird. <
> <
>This device is well manufactured, it's almost indestructible. The 2.4 gHz technology is fantastic even today, having played with this controller almost exclusively for over four years it has never had a hiccup or any other sync issues. <
> <
>The Gamecube controller is probably the best of any generation of game controllers, I love it for the different shapes of the buttons. In a pinch I always know which button I'm pressing, the Wii-mote is the next best thing, but for hard-core gaming it's not my favorite of favorites. The competition controllers all use plain old round buttons that I always seem to hit the wrong button on when it's important. <
> <
>The battery life on this device is quite impressive. Believe it or not in four years of gameplay I've only changed the batteries two to three times. <
> <
>The only complaint that most have about this controller is the lack of forced-feedback (tremor or rumble). To tell you the truth, I've never liked that feature anyway, but many do. I think that the omission of that feature is the reason for the unbelievable battery life and for me I would much rather have the extended battery life. But, perhaps the big "N" should have made a tremor pack available for it for those who wish to have the feedback. <
> <
>Several key technical features make this controller superior to many of the competition: <
> <
>Two position R1 and R2 buttons allow you to zoom in on a target 50% or 100% if playing a shooter. <
>Different shaped buttons lend themselves to better accuracy. <
>Camera stick and Control stick don't "Click in" a feature that often times results in mistakes (at least for me). <
>Simple key layout is easy to use and understand. <
>Controller fits comfortably in your hands. <
> <
>All in all, this is a great controller. If you look at the competition (MS and Sony), they have both incorporated wireless controllers into their new game machines. I think the big "N" lead the way in this innovative field with a great controller called the "Wavebird Wireless" <
> <
>Highly recommended!

Great controller
We've been using this controller for two weeks with no problems. There's no noticable delay, and the batteries are still fresh.

From a mom's perspective...
We've had this controller for almost 2 years now. I bought it because my son got close to yanking the whole game system off of his dresser a few times. I was a little skeptical as to whether it would REALLY work. Well, it does, even 2 years later. We've even had a dog chew on it and it still works. Now my son sits on his bed 12 feet away and can play, no longer tethered to the system. We (I) love this controller. <

>I've used it for racing games like Burnout and Need for Speed, and sports games like Madden 2005 and NBA Street, and others like Mario and Animal Crossing. It seems to work fine for me - but I'm no pro gamer either, so take that for what it's worth. <

>I like the durability, reliability, and ease of this product. It was more than worth the money.
