...besides the Wavebird. I have two Wavebirds; they're fantastic (and I'm looking to get a third), but the decision on Nintendo's part to nix the rumble feature was DUMB. Playing single player games with Wavebird = extremely bad.

Therefore, I am looking for a wireless controller that has rumble. Anyone have a good experience with any of the 3rd party brands? I'd like it to be as close in appearance/design to the original controller, if possible.

Thanks.

Someone's reading comprehension is low.

Anyway, I'm not sure if any wireless controllers for the GC support rumble.

Every 3rd party controller I've used sucks ass. I like the rumble feature but I stick with the wavebird if I need to go wireless. If not I have a cable extender that works wonders.

Uh. Get another Wavebird, and then let a game on your PS2 run with a dual shock. Rumble plus good controller = Happy.

3rd Party Wireless excluding Logitech sucks.

The rumble feature seems so minimal that I don't even miss it. All the third party ones are shit.

My game entertainment center is about 2 feet from where I play games. It isn't about the range at all. I don't like having wires draped around. Maybe I'm OCD or something, but having one wired controller and three wireless controllers drives me nuts. And not having rumble in, say, Zelda, also drives me nuts -- I feel like I'm missing something.

So...even if they're shit, has anyone tried out any of the 3rd party wireless pads? The ones with rumble that is -- I'm not looking for some cheapo fourth pad or anything like that. Just something specific to suit my [head scratching?] needs.
