Platinum Gamecube Controllers?

[Blayze]

Is it possible to buy more Platinum controllers for my Gamecube?

I see the Wavebirds at every store I go to, but I don't see the standard ones.

I don't think I've ever seen the platinum ones in stores. I bet you can get them online, maybe at ebgames.

I checked ebgames and gamestop and they don't have anything listed.

That sucks. I didn't even know they made platinum wavebirds. The regular platinum controller is listed as discontinued at amazon. If I had known that was going to happen, I would have bought a set for my gamecube ages ago.

I think the Platinum Wavebirds are new. I just started seeing them in stores recently.

Even Nintendo's site doesn't list them for sale.

You might want to keep an eye on eBay. Link! The only one available is out of country unfortunately... good luck!

I think its bad that Nintendo offers the Platinum Gamecube, but they don't sell the extra controllers.

Anyway thanks for the link, I'll keep a eye on eBay.

They don't have anywhere on their site where you can email them. I filled out some sort of survey and complained about the lack of regular platinum controllers, but I don't think that will do much good.

The controller for sale on eBay is out of the country, so I guess they do sale them somewhere.

I guess I could import one if thats the case.

Hopefully now that Platinum Wavebirds are showing up we'll see some of the controllers.

I would try calling them if you can find the number. I'm sure they have extra controllers they could sell can't hurt to ask!

Lik-sang is the place to go I guess. I got this email from Nintendo:

Thank you for contacting Nintendo,

The platinum controller for Nintendo GameCube is no longer being shipped. At this time, we have no information of these being available in the future.
