When did this happen?!?
It's just I noticed whilst in Dixons today and I said to my Mum "You gotta get me one of these".
"But you have three controllers" she said.
"Yes, and what is that open slot for?...the Wavebird"
"It's 35 quid!" she moaned.
"But it's a 'Wavebird' Mum".
So I explained to her what it was and she is probably going to get me one for Christmas. Wicked :-D
Then I remembered that it hasn't got a rumble feature and needs batterys. So I was just wondering if anyone owned the controller and could give me some feedback on it. Is it's worth it, How good is the battery life bla bla bla.
In other news, throughout a whole big shopping centre (the biggest in Essex) not one retailer had ANY GameCube pre-owned games. They had stacks of PS2 and Xbox ones though. Is this because noone is buying them? Or maybe because they are so great they don't get traded?
I leave you to decide (and anwser my question if you own the Wavebird).
Danke.

Well, with no rumble facility, the simple answer would be it doesn't deal with it at all!

Actually !! appears on the screen. So ner.
the one game that springs to mind instantly in MP4 is the climbing the cliff one.
2 characters have to climb the cliff and as soon as the pad rumbles they have to press a!
or indeed the fishing one, where as soon as your pad rumbles you press A to catch a fish!
hows that gonna work?!!?
Stupid Butt!

I dunno about the cliff one, but as soon as you see !! on the fishing game, you press A
I wanna know how it works for the heartbeat game though :S
If buying batteries every six months is a problem, get some rechargeable ones.
