The only wireless GC controller I know is the wavebird. best controller ever! Very rare and usually goes for around $70. If it's a wavebird I would have snapped it up eagerly at that price.

There are a couple 3rd party wireless controllers for the Gamecube. Look up Pelican Wireless Gamecube controller and Intec.

Wavebirds are ****. DO NOT BUY the wired ones are so much better. The birds chew batteries and are unresponsive(there is a small response time which is annoying for racing games like mario kart). Buy a NINTENDO gc controller off the net they are so much better.

You're right about the lag, rerun, I always lose to my bro in SSBM with a wavebird, not with a wired controller

Play mario kart and jsut try to get the dash at the start. It's ****ing retarded, and yeah I know they don't chew batteries but why would you buy one anyway you can only be like 20ft away and the GC control just works better. I'm very cheap with my batteries. Wavebirds are okay but are inferior to the less expensive wired controllers.
P.S DON'T get a third party control they SUCK.
