Apologies if I overlooked this somewhere else but it seems thrustmaster has started on 3rd party controllers for the Wii (first to my knowledge). Perhaps more interesting than that is that they claim it is programmable (macros and "slow" (my money goes on the rapid start button concept that has been around for longer than I have)).
It apparently clocks £20 in the UK
They are also punting some of the covers that turn the controllers into other things.
My entire gaming "career" I have rarely played with 3rd party pads that was even on par with the official offerings (megadrive was probably the only time it came close to beating it). Thrustmaster have done some stuff before though that is pretty good so I am hoping I can be pleasantly surprised.
