As random a collection of games as can be imagined.

N.B It was just the Vita game (bought digitally), not the console.

third party gamecube controllers that cost only $9 more than the shitty $100 bundle thing.

Unless there are some godlike third party GameCube controllers I don't know about, them being third party is exactly why they're so cheap. :P

Granted, I do have ONE beloved third party GCN controller (the special edition Mega Man X one), but I'm pretty sure that was licensed by Nintendo, and it wasn't cheap, either ($40 used at an indie game store a couple years back).

Either way, I doubt I'm going to get the bundle. I think the controller is cool, but I already have four GCN controllers (1 wired 1st party, 2 wavebird 1st party, and the aforementioned Mega Man X 3rd party), so I'm probably just going to grab the game and adapter separately whenever I finally have the money. Recent life changes (suddenly having to move back in with my parents, needing to quit my job as a result, and not starting my new job until just this week) are keeping me from being able to afford it at launch. :(

They're actually old GameStop brand controllers, got them for ~$10 each from a friend of mine. They're yeeeeeaaaars old, but they're in practically brand new condition :P Not as good as first party, sure, but miles better than spending $30 on first party ones now.

I'm actually curious if my Resident Evil 4 Chainsaw controller is going to work with smashbros. It should, and that's just going to make Things funnier
Personally, I prefer the ai-BZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ -OH GOD, NO WHYYYYYYYYY?????

I've always wanted to get one of those GameCube keyboard controllers and use it at a tournament, just to mindfuck everybody. :P

I had one of those, and it died within months of use... and I've never been one of those "mash buttons as hard as possible" players, especially back then.

Then again, I'm pretty sure GameStop has had multiple GameCube controllers over the years, so maybe you got better ones.

Well these have lasted all these years, and they still work perfectly as I tested them by playing some GC games on their Wii with them, so I guess they're in that "pretty good" batch
