There was rumours going around E3 that someone had pinched a Gamecube controller, and these rumours turned out to be true! The guy was in the Smash Brothers Melee section and he cut it off! Apparently, Nintendo got really p***ed off about this and upgraded security.
What really makes me laugh is that now this guy is trying to sell the thing on Ebay, take a look (includes pics):

humpo, would you still feel "un-idiot-like" when Nintendo come knocking on your door, sueing you for twice that amount? They're bound to find out about this (especially as it's on all the 'cube sites).
And what makes it special Ortega, is that the version that will be shipped with the Gamecube is not the same one as he possesses, making it very rare indeed.
