I picked this up from amazon for $25 some weeks ago. The thing I love most about this controller is actually that the controller has a really nice textured plastic that feels really good to hold and play with; it makes me want to actively seek GameCube games and Wii games to play it with! The cord length being longer like the black Smash one is also a huge plus.
60p does really makes a difference. The video is super smooth, almost weird-looking, ha, but in a good way. What a great controller btw, looks great in white. Too bad it's a Japanese exclusive.
You now what I absolutely adore about your channel and your collection? You aren't afraid to open your collectibles. These things were meant to be used and played with and admired! Having them sit in a dark box for eternity is such a waste to me.
I actally asked for one of these controllers on my birthday (yesterday) and my parents for some reason... got me this one. Dunno why they got the Japanese one, lol, but it's still really cool having one not released in North America.
Nintendo Collecting I don't think I've ever noticed a slight delay, but it just felt different in my hands. Maybe I had bad luck with wavebirds, but the buttons felt looser on the 2 that I had, and the battery pack just made it feel somewhat uncomfortable for me to hold.
The smash logo says DAIRANTOU SMASH BROS (Dairantou meaning "big fight/brawl"). And the gray text says "Nintendo Gamecube Controller". The text in the gray box says "suma bura howaito", basically a shortened version of Smash bros white.
Actually, you CAN use this controller with Smash64. If you buy Smash64 in the Wii shop (but only on Wii console, not WiiU's Wii mode). Sorry for bad english, I'm italian, lol
Great unboxing! I got this controller about a month ago and its fantastic. You're wrong about one thing though, you can actually use this controller to play the original super smash bros. Super smash bros the original is available to play on the wii virtual console and one of the controllers that is compatible is the gamecube controller.
How would you know if you bought a fake one at amazon? I just ordered one a moment ago from the link on this video and im not completely sure if those ones are real. I paid $23.00 for it
Hey Lithium, are you going to collect all of the WiiU fight pad controllers? There is a Mario, a Yoshi, a Peach, and a Luigi themed one and Wario, Link, Samus and Donkey Kong are coming out in March.
Gamecube controller vs pro controller which one has the best stick for movement? Because I feel like the pro controller has more drag and requires like more power to move it.
Hey Lithium, on the front, the Japanese text says "Nintendo Gamecube Controller Smash Bros. White". Just letting you know in case nobody else translated :P
Odio que cuesten tanto, en mi caso hay una tienda donde revenden cosas de videojuegos/anime/etc y cuesta 800 pesos I hate that they cost too much, in my case there's a store were they scalp things related to videogames/anime/etc and there it costs 800$ pesos
So do the controllers only work for smash like I have a Wii but no Wii you not yet do they work to play any wii/gamecube games? I just brought a white and black one.
+thepianist126 These controllers work with gamecube, wii, and wii u consols, just like any other gamecube controller edition. However, if used on a WII U consol, it only works with smash.
Ive been wanting this one, since im collecting smash accessories. Btw, which controller do YOU use in Super Smash Bros Wii U? And what edition of the controller
I am looking at Play-Asia right now. I have the black one and would love to pair it with a white one. How long was the shipping from Hong Kong to your address? I'm out in B.C. so I'm probably closer. I'm only at this address for another 4 weeks so I'm wondering if I should wait to order it.
Just bought one of these for myself, and your assumptions about the text on the front of the box is correct. Line by line it reads: 1) Nintendo Gamecube 2) Controller 3) Smash Brothers White As an aside, I'm curious to know if you were able to secure a pre-order for the Majora's Mask special edition New 3DS. I wanted to get one myself but the scalpers bought them out the minute they showed up on every website.
Am I the only one who thinks that they should make an N64 port for the wii u smash bros? I think it would be great to have an N64 controller ssb themed like the GameCube for the new console. I grew up with it for the original ssb and I would love to use it again
+Nintendo Collecting Hi Lithium, I have been watching this video for the past 7-8 weeks. I just had to get this controller. And it definitely feels awesome to hold. I really like this than the original gamecube controller. It's been 2005 since I last bought me a gamecube controller. But I'm glad I can now add this rare gem to my Wii U / Gamecube Collection. And I love playing Super Smash 2 & 4. Thank you for doing this video.
How in the hell can I use this controller if they don't allow the sale of gamecube controller adapters in NY? :P Is your miiverse friends list still full up?

With those 60fps, I can almost feel that controller in front of me!

Wish they made a new Wireless Gamecube Controller with Rumble.
Not sure why they didn't bring back the Wavebird
This ↑
utikt It must be because the Wavebird has a slight delay in response compared to a wired GC controller
yeah but why wouldn't they want the money im pretty sure it would be in high demand. Nintendo confuses me sometimes

You can get it off amazon now for $23 and free shipping with prime
Goddamn the prices sure have changed.
LMAO I wish it was still $23

I have never seen a person that is so genuinely intrigued by a piece of cardboard..
But seriously, good vid
Nice video! I like the smash symbol in the top middle of the white GameCube controller. If it comes out in North America, I'm getting one of those!
Awesome! I just found two bowser amiibos at gamestop and a nintendo collecting video came out!
I really like this controller.. So clean and looks more like an exclusive than the black.. Time to order one!

5:19 "MeeLee" XD this part made me laugh of how you pronounced it, I love your channel btw
Definitely worth getting. Got it on Amazon with prime for less than 30 dollars
I picked one up about a month ago! Also, I love that they got smart and make the new ones with the 9 ft cords!! :D
I got a white one of these on Amazon for only 22 US dollars and a black one, which for some reason are more expensive on Amazon slightly.
by like $.30
so expensive
the prices are insane right now. i wish i kept my box
Two weeks ago I got the Yoshi Gamepad controller and I would love to add this one to my collection.
Have it, will probably order another!
Dude you're such an inspiration. Your the reason why I'm starting to build a collection!
Hey lithium I love your videos and you are the best collector I've seen
Bringing mine to a tourney next week
everyone
its just a normal gamecube controller it will work on any gamecube controller port across any console that has one.
Awesome unboxing. Im going to order one of these now.
Does this work with the GameCube and Wii as well as the Wii U?
I meant PAL, sorry
I would assume so since it is compatible with NTSC. I don't see why it wouldn't also be compatible on PAL systems.
Daniel Eideh Yes. All worldwide consoles
Correction: If you have the original Wii Console and have Super Smash Bros. 64 downloaded you can use a GameCube controller
Smasher Josh as captain falcon says, HYES!
I will DEFINITELY be ordering one soon!! That thing looks SO sweet!!
I would like to buy this and I will on Amazon for 25.29$ I can't wait :)
You can actually use it for the original smash bros but you need to have it on the virtual console on the wii for it to work
Do the new ones work for GameCube Wii as well
Haydn Choi why wouldn't they? Also, did you even watch the video?
AtomicmonkeyTCG I nevered use them before that was back then but ik now
the original version of ssb on virtual console work with gamecube controler
If you can use this for the GameCube then can you use this when you are playing GameCube games on the Wii?
Yes it even works on a real gamecube I bought one simply because it has such a long chord and I missed rumble
+GrayWoIf Ok thanks
Neonas
My mind is always musically inclined I apparently was thinking of music chords
same exact quality as original controller except it has the smash logo instead of nintendo gamecube logo and the cord is much longer than original?
5:28 look at links eyes on the melee box
I'm in love it! I'm going to get a lot better now
Controller looks really nice but I actually like it in Black best.
I managed to get this white one for $23 on Amazon...and I bought it with some other stuff so I didn't have to pay for shipping! :D
How would you know if you bought a fake one at amazon? I just ordered one a moment ago from the link on this video and im not completely sure if those ones are real. I paid $23.00 for it
I just got it yesterday, and it's the real deal.
Junel Espinosa
@@SebisRandomTech Is it compatible with Nintendo switch?
I'm ordering two of these
I will use one of them for playing
and the other one will stay boxed for collecting :D
Already got it! It's cool.
Love your videos man! And your from toronto too? Collector rivalry ?
I am not a fan of rivalries :P but yes, I live just outside Toronto in Canada
Haha just kididng, and thats really cool! Keep the awesome vids dude!
Nintendo Collecting hey i live at monteral qc
Hey I seen your old 2012 video on rare n64 systems I found that orange and black one for sale at a store near me for like 240 lol
It's $26 with prime shipping on Amazon right now
Hey Lithium, are you going to collect all of the WiiU fight pad controllers? There is a Mario, a Yoshi, a Peach, and a Luigi themed one and Wario, Link, Samus and Donkey Kong are coming out in March.
Does this work with normal wii. Also does it only work on smash bros
Gamecube controller vs pro controller which one has the best stick for movement? Because I feel like the pro controller has more drag and requires like more power to move it.
That looks amazing
Would buy this once i get my hands on an adapter.
does this controller have rumble?
Hey Lithium, on the front, the Japanese text says "Nintendo Gamecube Controller Smash Bros. White". Just letting you know in case nobody else translated :P
i love your videos so much :)
Does it have rumble?
Have you pre-ordered the Majora's Mask New 3DS XL?
NNGamer Yep! Excited to unbox that one
What do you think about the new Nintendo partner system, terrible right ?
I found that controller on a game shop here in my hometown in Mexico and it cost like $900 pesos (~$60 USD, $75 CAD)
TheDoctor64 tss yo igual soy de México y lo compre en 430 pesos bueno le di 30 dlls y era mas o menos eso y el control totalmente nuevo!
Odio que cuesten tanto, en mi caso hay una tienda donde revenden cosas de videojuegos/anime/etc y cuesta 800 pesos
I hate that they cost too much, in my case there's a store were they scalp things related to videogames/anime/etc and there it costs 800$ pesos
This thing $200 more now😂
If you have the original Smash Bros on Wii VC, you can use the GameCube controller with it.
Do you have super Mario advance 1 2 3 or 4?
where did you get the bundle of the controller adapter and game and how much was it?
You could use this controller if you have SSB on the Wii virtual console :D
Where is the Original Nintendo seal of quality sticker?
Nintendo collecting I live in Canada and I got a Bowser amiibo at eb games
Nintendo should make a Smash Bros. Wavebird.
I know that it work in the jp version but does this work on canadien/american wii/GC
+Larry Koopa 3:38
thanks i heard but I'm just want to be sure because I don't want to buy a used controller on ebay!
Is it compatible with an European WiiU?
Im assuming you can't buy them anymore in stores where I'm from(Canada) so you can buy them online though ?
Yeah, eBay.
So do the controllers only work for smash like I have a Wii but no Wii you not yet do they work to play any wii/gamecube games? I just brought a white and black one.
thepianist126 Wii U*
+thepianist126 These controllers work with gamecube, wii, and wii u consols, just like any other gamecube controller edition. However, if used on a WII U consol, it only works with smash.
This doesn't need to come out in the US Amazon sells it with 2 day free shipping
Did you pre-order the Majora's Mask edition of the new 3DS XL?
hotdoggrass Yes and an unboxing video will come on launch day in North America
That's sweet. I was planning on buying it on the release day, but I highly doubt gamestop or bestbuy would have it.
do the controllers work for wii? not wii U and do the white one work for a american wii system?
This is a legit Gamecube controller, so you can use it on a Gamecube, Wii, and Wii U (with adapter) And I'd assume it works on American consoles.
VoltSSB4 yeah the dude on the video said it works worldwide.
can i use this japanese controller for my european wii u?
You probably know this already but I'm pretty sure you can use it in any region
Thanks! I just picked one up. Do you reckon this will be released outside of Japan?
Ive been wanting this one, since im collecting smash accessories. Btw, which controller do YOU use in Super Smash Bros Wii U? And what edition of the controller
Holy Gaming nice collecting goal! I usually use the Spice orange controller as it is one of my favourites.

Are you careful with the condition on your platinum Gamecube Controller? Because they are almost impossible to keep them. in good condition
Gustavo Cabral It does scratch easily, so we do not use the Platinum or Starlight Gold for gaming
Nintendo Collecting Are yours in perfect or like new condition?
got one as well, but a tiny bit cheaper on amiami ,recommended :)
Love me some meelee
How long did it take for it to ship from Japan?
About a week - surprisingly fast!
There's a Super Nintendo 2 that comes with yoshis island there's one on eBay for 600$
Pity Ultimate didn't do a White version
Idk if anyone is ever going to respond to this but does this work on the switch if you have an adapter?
Yes it works

@@NintendoCollectingalso do you still recommend this one or the smash ultimate version or are they basically the same
