I had a bad experience with baysoft.

EDIT: I take that back! Confusing them with another site!

Shipping outside the USA is $9.99 for your entire order. Baysoftgames will only accept American Express and Discover Cards for International Orders.

agh that does suck. I don't know how much toysnjoys will be for you. But like I said, it's coming from Hawaii. It was expensive for me, and I'm in the States.

EDIT: If sevin0sevin's trade falls through, I officially relenquish my dibs on the Pellican over to you. Since you're gonna get shafted on shipping ordering from the US sites.

toysnjoys is $17 shipped :/

Is there anywhere even selling the Hori pads? I might just get one.

Oh and thanks for relinquishing your dibs lol .. but im in no rush so if you want it you can still grab it. $20 does seem kinda high for used if they are $10 new though.

The Classic NGC controller on DealExtreme is really cheap, and functions well.

I would use the converter from retro USB.

Or you could try this Chinese gadget.

Wii wired controllers and Gamecube controllers are interchangable. I used that same controller on my Gameboy Player before I got a Gamecube-GBA cable. Come to think of it those gamecube link cables sell for pretty cheap on ebay and will let you use any GBA except the Micro as a controller as well. It also allows some extra stuff on certain Gamecube games. If you decide to try the link cable, I'd suggest getting a cord extension too.
