[Canada] Nyko Wii Classic Controller GRIP 3$ @ EB Games

[jeffx]

Not a MAJOR deal but the grips are 3$ now. They're VERY nice, well worth the couple bucks if you're serious about the VC games and other CC-enabled Wii titles.

On ebay they hover around 10$ shipping included so I'm glad I didn't bite when I really wanted one just a month ago. Hell they're 10$ at Walmart.

8/10 review on IGN, main problem was the 15$USD price at the time.

PS you'll have to deal with one hell of a clam shell packaging for such a tiny accessory...

i did buy my friend the 14 bux classic controller at EB on boxing day...

..do i love him that much to pay 3 bux more?

hm....... ill have to sleep on this, thnakx

IMHO the classic controller should have been built with this grip in the first place. the CC was 20$ on boxing day BTW.

It still is $20 at a lot of places, namely:

dont feel too bad, i....

...

k.. yes. yes you are

how necessary is this grip for the CC? anybody know who have it?

 

[jeffx]

How about this 8/10 review from IGN?

Note that the score was significantly brought down because of the 15$USD tag price at the time. We're getting it for 3$.

I don't even have a Classic Controller (missed out on boxing day deals - were always sold out when I called/checked), but I bought the pads anyway. They'll come in handy sometime in the future. $3 is a great price...there does seem to be a lot of packaging for it though! Thanks for posting jeffx!
