Hacking Where to buy a GC-controller for an European Wii?

[Kilko]

Anybody here know of a website that i can order a GC-controller from?

It has to be for a European Wii.
The website has to ship internationally (to Norway)
It should be as cheap as possible

I want the GC-controller so i can run homebrew on my Wii (i got a wiikey)

Thx in advance for good replies!

3rd party controllers cannot compare in quality

I tried those BigBen controller and didnt like them. I always prefer to buy first party controllers but this is just my opinion...

There's a lot of Wavebirds on ebay (at least on ebay.co.uk) some for auction, some buy it now. I picked up a couple for my PAL wii and I'm very happy with them.

I've got 2 thirdparty controllers. One is a Joytech, can't remember the other one. The quality is the same as the original controller.

Btw. i know wat First Party is i dont know wat Second party is and i partly know wat third party is(Other bussineses making products for others mens work)

First party = Nintendo
Second Party doesn't exist for controllers.
Third Party = every other company even if they are authorised by Nintendo.

I had a third party controller that worked on my gamecube but not on my Wii, I think this might be the case for a few types of third party controllers, should always go for the first party stuff IMO nintendo always make high quality hardware.

I ended up getting a wavebird off of ebay for £20, Well worth it since GC controllers have quite short cables.

Yeah wavebirds are good they go with the whole wireless wii controller theme.

For US users, Nintendo still sells gamecube controllers from their official store. Do they not do the same for Europe?
