I received one of these Purple Gamecube-style controller for Christmas, because in my mind the original GC controller was the most ergonomically comfortable controller ever developed. By May my controller had developed a bit of an annoying squeak on the right thumb stick, and by July it had started to drift, ever so slightly, downwards.
I managed to get a replacement (though not in the beloved GameCube purple, so I now have a bright yellow Pikachu replacement. It’s hardly my choice of styling, but at least I can find it in a dimly lit room!)
The customer service from the makers is pretty fantastic, and the unit is robust and well made. Despite the troubles I had I would not hesitate to buy another, simply because the sturdiness of the controller and customer service when I *did* have an issue were both so good.
