It looks as though GameStop have received some more GameCube adapters but as you can guess they aren’t selling them separately. If you want one you’ll need to fork out $79.97 which nets you two GameCube controllers and a GameCube adapter. They’re currently in stock so if you fancy this deal then get it now.
Thanks, Mr.AngerProblems
Not worth it.
Each gamecube controller is $30. The Adapter is $20. They aren’t ripping you off. If you don’t have an adapter or any gamecube controllers it’s a good deal.
Is there any way of getting just the adapter?
You mean getting the adapter in MSRP price? no
Dualshock 4, Xbox One controller, GCN controller- which is the best?
1. Xbox One controller
2. GCN controller
3. Dualshock 4
Gamecube is one of the best controllers I have ever used, maybe even the best I’ve ever used. The worst is the 360 controller. 360 controllers don’t last very long before they start giving you problems.
Here’s an idea: Get a Pro Controller and call it a day.
But I bet you’re one of the people that got the adapter. Lol…
Smash > MK8!!!
I like them both a lot. But I enjoyed MK8 more. Smash Bros is always amazing but the new one is kind of underwhelming imo. Sometimes I actually feel as if I had more fun with Brawl.
You need to see how much each cost individually, add them together and see how much you really want and need one to decide whether or not it’s worth it. If it is, then go for it, if it’s not, then hold out for a better deal…
Not saving much here but it’s a convenient bundle.
I ordered this late last night and it already shipped!Your still paying the same cost as the controllers are always $30 each so your still paying the MSRP of $20 for the adapter.I still payed less then the scalpers prices and got 2 brand new $30 GCC’s to boot.Wait a little while and the controllers alone will cost over $100 each new in the box on Amazon and Ebay when Nintendo stops making them again.
Lol, what a rip-off.
Better “bust out” the calculator, son.
Counting the same bundled controller/adapter thats $50 EACH and compare it to x2 $100+ worth bundles for $80 which is $20 less than the total retail price you’re paying for, I say that your math is as off as your common sense to use a calculator and internet to research the retail pricing first before mouthing off in stupidity.
IIRC, The adapter alone costs $20. I’ve seen controllers online for $10. No need to get mad everytime I post, OK? Keep your ADHD under control.
Controllers for $10? Where exactly? Craigslist?
ebay. Brand new.
Right. lol a bargain bin price on a brand controller?

You do realize this is an older model right and it only applies if you buy it which in this case, you’re not buying it.
It is hard to say “I’m wrong”, but I believe in you.
This isn’t really saving anything. But it’s still better than spending $100+ for the adapter alone online.
Even though I am one of the biggest GameCube fans out there, I don’t see why Nintendo even re-released these controllers when you can just buy a Wii U Pro Controller….
Pro Controller = $50
GCN Controller + adapter = $50
The Pro Controller is wireless and can be used for hundreds of games. The GCN controller can only be used for SSB on Wii U.
Well that’s because the ‘cube controller is the better controller.
Pro is better to me.
Banjo is best controller
Nintendo has made a lot of worthy controllers.
You really can’t see why nintendo wanted to make money?
They re-released the controller beacuase every GCN controller fan wanted to have it and now they got it…
And as always they now complain to why they got it…
This is why they are the cattle masses and I’m the superior Commander…
*Because…
It’s all about the money, why can’t they just sell individualy- they would be just as popular and more affordable for those who don’t have $80 to spare
Maybe they should be free? C’mon $80 is not a lot of money. The reason they are not $30 is because some douche will buy them all and sell on ebay. Then you will whine that they are sold out. Stop being a whiner.
And what exactally is stopping scalpers from simply buying the pack as well? It doesn’t help to alienate people who just want the adapter without paying for stuff they don’t want, and while $80 may not be “a lot” to you it is to other people who do not want to pay for a silly bundle.
Okay.
It’s like this.
The amount of wannabe scalpers is reduced.
At $30 most people will buy 3. (self,friend,sell)
At $80 one is enough for most and that alone will at least help combat the supply and demand problem also, the scalpers that work with these types of product probably have to be a little cautious at $80 a piece since the abundance of ‘cube controllers will be a factor and will eventually lower the value of the bundle to the current value of the adapter. The reality is, Nintendo is building a stockpile of them and can/will ship ’em at any time, thus potentially ruining a scalpers day and teaching some kids a lesson.
And…….Sold out again I hope some of you were snagged one while they lasted!
If you REALLY wanna play with the GC controller but don’t want to wait for that plastic to go back down to its MSRP, just buy the adapter that plugs into the wii remote. It’s around $20 and works perfectly, for me atleast (no noticeable button lag).
its really a wash. they want you to buy the controllers from them and then you get the adapter at suggested retail price. best deal available right now though.
I do love that sexy feel of the Game Cube controller. But honestly I’d rather spring and buy a actual GameCube system. Start playing some of those gems again.
Why can’t anyone ever sell just the Gamecube adaptor alone? And for a reasonable price?
Why make people pay $20 when you can make them pay $80 due to Nintendo’s own fuck ups?
bagels has a point I have a wii fit trainer and a villager that I’m looking to get some decent cash for. not that I like ripping people off but when you have something of value it’s only logical to make a profit on it regardless of its original retail value.
You should be ashamed. XD
He shouldn’t, if the cattle wants to waste so much money on it then they should be ashamed of their stupidity…
And us people in the UK haven’t had any gamecube adapters restocks since the 28th of November.
