Well, I bought a Wavebird on eBay, and don't ask me why, but it is just a better experience than using a regular wired GC controller. BTW, I've had no problem with it communicating slowly, it is just as instantaneous as a wired one. But the best part about the controller is that I don't have to pump batteries into it! My rechargeable Wiimote battery pack fits perfectly into it! :biggrin:
