I recently bought two new 3rd party gamecube controllers to use on my wii and they broke damn fast. Luckily I think I can still get a refund from amazon. Does any know which 3rd party is the best to buy gamecube controllers from? I'd buy official nintendo ones but they considered collector's items new and I don't wanna buy used controllers.

I have a fancy-ass metallic silver Wavebird. It still comes in handy for brawl-offs.
I bet Gamestop and otehr stores have new controllers siting around in warehouses somewhere... |

Funnily enough, I was at the Gamestop near my work after work. according to one of the guys who worked there, old games/consoles/etc that are being discontinued just get marked down over and over until they get bought.
