Here's a video of how to spot fake Wii U pro controllers. With an actual fake Wii U Pro controller as an example. Don't be stupid like me. Stay away from this junk.
ADDENDUM: I've been told on numerous occasions that the sticker on the back is indeed identical to the real controller sticker, less the spelling mistakes. This is the only part of the video that is incorrect.
gamefreak4444 6:40 _!!!_ I am not in the slightest fond fake/faulty products. I admire how well you handled this product, pointing out all the flaws in a humorous, informative way. The elephants at the end were also an especially nice touch. Great video.
hey will I ordered a switch a Wii u and a pro controller mario kart 8 deluxe mario 3d world smash and I gave the money and they gave me fake stuff screw eBay I hate ebay
My big question is how well does it work despite being a knock off, since many people don't mind the knock off controllers like this so long as they work well.
The black wii u pro controller I bought from Walmart has the same sticker on the back, I can't scratch off the logo or anything, but the logo on back isnt fake.
Same, but with mine, the logo actually says Nintendo, the Wii U front logo isn't able to be scratched, and the sticker has no misspellings... :/ Yet the lights do seem a tad brighter than a wiimote... And the buttons do jiggle just a tiny bit... :/
I also got a fake controller, though not from EBay. I suspected it was a bootleg because of a few telltale signs, and I confirmed my suspicions when I bought another controller at the Nintendo World Store in NYC, where I was certain I would get the real McCoy. The point I'm trying to make is that the tags in both controllers (fake and original) have the exact same inscription, down to the "patents pending" and "made in China", so those are not really surefire ways to tell a fake from an original. And it shouldn't be surprising. Every original controller for every Nintendo system I own says those 2 things. Most electronics are made in China, including consoles, accessories, smartphones, tablets, computers, etc., and that doesn't mean they are bootlegs. Japanese, Korean, American and European companies outsource their factories to China, where manpower is cheap and abundant. I can show you pictures of both of my controllers, and you'd be hard pressed to tell one from the other, and it was only the precision of the analog sticks and the duration of the battery that showed it was fake, and I was only able to make the comparison after I got an original one. Those bootlegs are very close to the real ones, and that's what makes it so difficult to tell when you're buying them.
I bought mine off of the official Nintendo website and it has a sticker like your fake but it has no spelling issues.. its real. The picture you showed in the corner is also a fake sticker. Also, Nintendo does have patents pending for this controller, and the fake sticker in the corner of your video also says patents pending.
Did you hear what he said? the LEDs are way too bright, the buttons rattle, and the triggers don't even work consistently! Imagine how annoying it would be to use!
The 3DS's patent was pending when it came out, same with the Wii, and just about every other Nintendo product I own says "patent pending" or "patents pending".
Ricardo Gonzalez I normally watch the whole video before I comment. Stupid shit like this happens when I don't.

Very important information, thanks! As my parents like to get their electronics from eBay and craigslist, I appreciate the making of this video. The last 2 electronics my parents got for me online were a *cockroach* / virus infested laptop and an already busted "new" laptop battery. Thanks a lot, you cruddy online dealers.
Even amazon's official "Nintendo" category listed pro controller is shipping fakes. I don't know if this is happening on every instance. But without a doubt, there's a severe problem Nintendo faces with their Manufacturers in China making knock offs after hours.
+Isaias Ormeño It is fake, I have one from Gamestop and the sticker is different, the lights don't hurt, the buttons don't move and there's a different cord.
This is why I'll always buy controllers and systems from an actual retail store. There's no worries that it'll be fake, scratched, broken, or have some other fuck up, and even if it does you can get it fixed (I also just like to know that my console/controller is brand spanking new). I'm just so worried about buying these things online, just imagine if your new controller or, God forbid, your new system was a fake and had something wrong with it? Imagine going to customer service and dealing with that problem. I always will buy from a store so I'll know that it'll be good
I just noticed my Wii U pro controller is a third party controller, but holy crap it works so good for third party. The back says “Wireless pro gamepad”, and really it is quite good. I should have expected this since it came in a white non-Nintendo box, but it’s easily one of my favorite controllers to use with my Wii U. Great video btw ^^
If you really need a Pro controller than just buy one off the Official Nintendo Store. Most Pro controllers sold online are fake and good luck finding one in any shops.
I got a used pro controller at GameStop for $40 and has the same sticker but it doesn't rattle but notice the sticks are very loose and not as precise as the Wii U gamepad controller so I skip movements on the left stick while playing Smash Bros Wii U.
I have 2 pro controllers: One purchased from Walmart and the other from Gamestop. The back of your fake controller looks like mine. I know my controllers are legit and it also says patents pending Made in China.
keatonthemysticalfox Nintendo is spelled correctly and my Wii U logos haven't come off. So yeah I suspect his controllers are fake. What I'm saying is, don't assume your controller is fake based on some of the info in this video. Patents pending made in China, for example, is not a telltale sign you have a fake controller. The word "recieve" is commonly misspelled on the back of wii u pro controllers and there's no battery recycling information printed on the back of my controllers either. Like I said, I purchased my controllers from 2 reputable businesses. In my experience 'online reputation' means very little if you're not familiar with the seller.
yeah, the whole spiel about the FCC stuff is standard legal jargon that is on a lot of electronics sold in north america believe it or not. I compared my (legitimate controller) label and it's pretty much word for word what the fake one says (minus the typo). The one he compares it to is the European label. @ video creator Please make an annotation and correct your mistake.
So my controller was from amazon, it doesn't jiggle and the lights are as soft as the wii remote. But, the back was the same as that but without spelling errors. It has the same charger wire as a PS3 controller. Is mine fake? Someone please answer.
The label on the back is correct aside from the typos - mine says 'Patents Pending.' on it, and it's legit. The bumpers on the real thing also do go down that far.
are you sure Nintendo doesn't have patents pending because I got my wii U pro controller at EB Games and it says that and EB Games is the Canadian version of GameStop
***** wow... throwing an insult at somebody innocent... he told me that he didn't watch the whole thing... don't go judging people before you go insulting them... idiot
***** actually some of the parts are made in China but they are assembled and sold in other countries like Japan and the u.s.a, Japan is not a part of China and they have different rules.
hi gamefreak; I purchased a wiiu pro controller (white) at gamestop. while compare mine with yours in this video. I can see every words matched with your fake controller. except no rattles, logo cannot be scratch off, not ninendo but nintendo. it also says patent pending made in China. I believes the faker made a copy from this model. also the gray USB cord has a "Nintendo" engrave on the end. the original box I have here got different writing from yours tho. it's just describing the controller in English, French and Spanooke
sian973 Yeah people on Amazon make these adapters and sell them for 20 bucks. :I Over half of them loosely fit on a Gamecube controller. Easy to pull off. Easy disconnection.
Umm, mine's doesn't rattle when you shake it, it came with the light gray USB charger, the blue lights don't really blind me, the L and R sticks are decent, and the Wii U logo can't be scratched off, however on the back, it as the same sticker except there are no spelling mistakes and the Nintendo logo isn't misspelled either. Does that mean it is fake or real?
Yeah, I recently got some classic controller pros like that off amazon recently to play snes and n64 vc games. The controller rattled alot, the analog sticks and d pad felt really flimsy. Just a tip to people buying the controllers, if it does not have the wii logo above the + - buttons in the pictures that means its fake. That applies to the regular classic controller as well.
My controller buttons dont shake and it says nintendo on the back the light looks normal but the back sticker is what he has but i also got it from best buy is mine fake?
I bought mine at GameStop and I could not scratch the Wii u sign, it say it was made in China and says mod. Wup-005, but says harmful instead of mar. I don't even know
+Sir. Snivy If its from gamestop its bot fake if you have not figurer out yet lol legit shops like gamestop never sells fake stuff this is EBay we are talking about.
So In October I was freaking out cuz my inkling hat wasn't ready for my cosplay and so I went on eBay to get this really well made looking remake inkling hat so I purchased it for $64 and then when it came in on the Wednesday before Halloween I opened the package and idefk wth had been shipped to my house. It was this weird ass pink giant fluffy hat thing that made no FUKIN SENSE TF EBAY SCREW YOU TOO
Wait, will smash 4 be compatible with the Wii classic controller (the one that plugs in like the nunchuck)? 3D world used this and I wanted to know if it will work with smash.
is my controller fake? i have the "fake" logo on the back of my black pro controller, except everything is spelled correctly. mine does work fine even with super mario bros u. but i also did notice soemthing very strange. my ZR button feels greasy/glossy unlike the other shoudler buttons, which feel like the back of the controller. and i bought mine from gamestop new.
You are very, VERY wrong about the patents...Nintendo has too many patents pending and...Oh LOOK! It's my Aqua Blue 3DS... It has a "(M) 2010 (C) 2011 Nintendo Pat. PEND." on its back!
Recently got a legit Pro controller. The WiiU logo is perfectly smooth and embedded in the gloss, and you'll get nothing running your nail over it. Mine has only a very faint rattling of the face buttons, and the LEDs do indeed have clear frosted plastic over them like Wiimotes, which cuts down on the glare. The label on the back besides the text, is two logos. NOM and NYCE. And it says Nintendo. With a T.
i bought my pro controller at target and it has the same sticker on the back as yours but without the spelling errors but it does say patents pending o now im all worried
You bought these for so cheap that you don't even want to disclose it. That alone should've told you that you were getting fakes. And you kept buying MORE? Dude I cannot feel sorry for you. This is a bad case of "your fault".
I'm confused. My parents bought me two controllers and they have that sticker on the back. The cord is right, and everything else checks out. The problem is that they said they got the controllers at Walmart. The buttons clack when I shake the controller and the sticks have yellowed a bit but does this mean those controllers were fake?
Leonora Eyas they never said it was not fake.. anyway pikagirl, they did not sell them to nintendo someone made those controllers sold them on ebay :) but yes its till illegal so you are right in a way. :)
I have a black Wii U pro controller that says the same things, but with no misspellings or the blinding lights or any of those problems. Is mine fake? BTW it was a gift so I don't know where I got it.
my question is, it has any diference in functionally? it works same as the original? besides the less battery capacity, it has another diference? it whort but it ?
my friend got a fake gamecube controller from gamestop .it didnt work on games or anything and my friends wii controller that connects to the classic wii controller only works on wii menu
I bought my pair of v-moda crosfades off eBay and their practically mint. Got them for $80 when they retail for $200...tell your friend to stop buying from shady ass sellers...
I got one of those Wii U Pro controllers from China (£10 / $15), the analog sticks are not smooth at all! Impossible to aim on Breath of the Wild.. Do the Chinese controllers and Wii U controllers use different Charging connections?
Just for info, that little block on the cable is called a choke, it's used to prevent back EMF from destroying your kit, it's basically a ferrite core with the cable looped through it. Nothing to do with RF at all :)
I bought a Wii U new from the store and the gamepad had that same label on the back (minus the typos, of course). The information about interference has mostly to do with legally protecting themselves if signals from air traffic control or government satellites interfere with the product. Since radio waves transmit information, it makes sense that the FCC is involved. My legit one also says "PATENTS ISSUED AND PENDING."
My wii u pro controller has the same back sticker, but without any spelling errors, and I bought it at best buy (pre-owned) it does have a rattling noise, but the sticker is in tact and unscratchable, and the lights aren't blinding. Is there still a good chance that it's fake?
i have a used pro controller that does not have any of the sings of being fake. the wii u logo doesent scratch off, the buttons dont make unusualy loud sound when they are shaken, the lights arent blinding, it doesent say niniendo, but then i saw the sticker and saw that it had the same sticker as the fake one, minus the typo. is mine real or fake?
and i also saw the pro controller review of ign and it has the same sticker. are you sure that the sticker in the picture you showed was the real deal? becouse ign's pro controller doesent have it. it has the one you said was fake. (minus the typo) vut i 100% agree with you. never order from china. u rock man! :)
It's real. Guy doesn't really know what the real controller looks like. The Pro Controller does have a similar sticker as his fake and DOES say "Patents Pending"
ADDENDUM: I've been told on numerous occasions that the sticker on the back is indeed identical to the real controller sticker, less the spelling mistakes. This is the only part of the video that is incorrect.
Thajo 4-5 years after the upload of the video
kimo the fun genius Someone finally complained about it a few days ago. XD
@@Thajo_tv is it weird this video is kinda part of my childhood and ive been joking about "niniendo" for years
@Kevin Kellen jokes on ya, I've seen that same reply to the same spam of that page elsewhere

"Gamecube controller won't work on the wii u" GameCube adapter is released
+ItsYaBoiElijah4 But this video was made when it wasn't announced.
+ItsYaBoiElijah4 Grandpa Scout is right. GameCube Adapter IS released, just not when THIS was released.
In painfully small quantities those adapters
That's what I love about Nintendo you dont have to spend much I got my four GameCube controllers,game pad and pro. RECYCLING feels good.
That was before
you must have felt silly when the gc adapter came out
KeithShizuo pepole just love hating on nintendo. the ps4 has no support for ps2 or ps1. the xbox one has no support for xbox controllers.
and you cant use an nes, famicom, n64, or snes controller with anything else
KeithShizuo it only works with smash bros however. the pro controller is still a way better option
***** smashbros was the reason he got these and why is that
***** If you came from playing Melee and Project M with a Gamecube Controller... Gamecube Controllers are so much better.
The legit controllers DO have "Patents Pending" on them. However, they do not say "Nininedo" lol
'Knowing full well the Gamecube controllers aren't going to be supported by the Wii U.'
Boy, did you get screwed over. Twice.
Gotta say that somebody conTROLLED you.
Corny but hilarious at the same time

What are you talking about? These controllers aren't fake, they're real Ninidendo controllers!
that controller is fake

Dani Paunov oh i did but i just diddn't get the joke LOL

please edit your comment, so it's more helpful. right now, noone can understand who you're talking to
I ordered a wii u controller and only got the box not the controller
wait wha XD 😆😆😆😆😆😵
mini mario I ordered one and i only got a fake working controller (no issues) not the box
hey will I ordered a switch a Wii u and a pro controller mario kart 8 deluxe mario 3d world smash and I gave the money and they gave me fake stuff screw eBay I hate ebay
Sucks to be you..
I salute you!

the triggers aren't supposed to work on super Mario Bros U

Your comment and +Toon Link Hero of Trains user......I can't I just can't

ikr
I think elaphant noises are a much better way to block out swears, then the common BEEEEEEEEEP that is so annoying. Good choice.
The color bars already scared me. But putting the noise from it in everyday life made me scared of censored content
My big question is how well does it work despite being a knock off, since many people don't mind the knock off controllers like this so long as they work well.

The 'real' controllers also rattle like the supposed fake ones. So does the 3DS and actual WiiU gamepad..
OH GOD!! It might just be real!! D: TAKE IT BACK NOW!!!
exactly same with me
I also got a fake controller, though not from EBay. I suspected it was a bootleg because of a few telltale signs, and I confirmed my suspicions when I bought another controller at the Nintendo World Store in NYC, where I was certain I would get the real McCoy.
The point I'm trying to make is that the tags in both controllers (fake and original) have the exact same inscription, down to the "patents pending" and "made in China", so those are not really surefire ways to tell a fake from an original. And it shouldn't be surprising. Every original controller for every Nintendo system I own says those 2 things. Most electronics are made in China, including consoles, accessories, smartphones, tablets, computers, etc., and that doesn't mean they are bootlegs. Japanese, Korean, American and European companies outsource their factories to China, where manpower is cheap and abundant.
I can show you pictures of both of my controllers, and you'd be hard pressed to tell one from the other, and it was only the precision of the analog sticks and the duration of the battery that showed it was fake, and I was only able to make the comparison after I got an original one. Those bootlegs are very close to the real ones, and that's what makes it so difficult to tell when you're buying them.

Also, Nintendo does have patents pending for this controller, and the fake sticker in the corner of your video also says patents pending.
What the different, they likely work as much as a real controller without the ridiculous price tag.
Did you hear what he said? the LEDs are way too bright, the buttons rattle, and the triggers don't even work consistently! Imagine how annoying it would be to use!
and plus buying it would support criminal activity
DropsIntheOcean yeah, mine are legitimate, and have the same kinds of stickers as the fake one.
DropsIntheOcean why did his controller say "Niniendo"
I got a doom 2 cart for Gameboy Advance and there is no nintendo seal of quality and it says nintondo
5:15 FCCID: P00
That is all
gg

Wow, so you're telling me that stuff you can buy on ebay can be fake?
OH WOW THANKS FOR ENLIGHTENING ME!
Pretty sure he said how to tell if something is fake but pretend like he is pointing out the obvious if u want

Why does China have a console ban?
because they are to dumb lol
Chinas console ban was lifted a year ago.
Even amazon's official "Nintendo" category listed pro controller is shipping fakes. I don't know if this is happening on every instance. But without a doubt, there's a severe problem Nintendo faces with their Manufacturers in China making knock offs after hours.
Why do you say is fake? Is a real *Niniendo* controller!
Lmfao
lol thats true Its just a different company IMAO
+SuperQ32 sometimes it doesnt support and its a scam
+Isaias Ormeño It is fake, I have one from Gamestop and the sticker is different, the lights don't hurt, the buttons don't move and there's a different cord.
Chris Why you not search in Google what is a "joke"
For some reason in New Super Mario Bros. U the bumpers on the pro controller act as the Z buttons on the gamepad....
it's because the trigger in new super mario u is only used to move or turn platforms, the platforms you usually move with the motion controls
I find this really funny just because they announced they're rebooting the Gamecube controllers aka the "fight pads"
However I don't find it funny because I'm here because I fell for this... crap
In New Super Mario Bros. U, when you press the ZR and ZL triggers, they do nothing. It's the R and L buttons that do things.
That last elephant!! My god I need to clean my computer screen! XD (might have spewed my spaghetti all over it.)
This is why I'll always buy controllers and systems from an actual retail store.

What do you mean "good luck finding one in any shops"? Every Gamestop I've been to has the Wii U Pro controllers.
In the UK they're hard to find.
***** Okay.
In New York, USA I found a NEW REAL BLACK WII U PRO CONTROLLER in GAMESTOP by Queens Blvd. Worth the trip
Chaotic378 ya but often they are just boxes with nothing in them and a pricetag
I got a used pro controller at GameStop for $40 and has the same sticker but it doesn't rattle but notice the sticks are very loose and not as precise as the Wii U gamepad controller so I skip movements on the left stick while playing Smash Bros Wii U.

Why not buy from Wal-Mart or GameStop.
These were "For a cheeper Price"

Or EB Games

Steven Inferno oh... well just letting you know!
***** wow... throwing an insult at somebody innocent... he told me that he didn't watch the whole thing... don't go judging people before you go insulting them... idiot
***** hrm... another insult at an innocent person... don't go throwing insults... people will get angry at you...
I'm confused so the original controller can't be used for every game and for that you need these controls ers ?
niniendo is best company!!!
I buy stuff from niniendo all the time. Lol
It's all made in China you fools.
***** Yes but under the strict supervision of Japanese game cartels like Nintendo.
***** actually some of the parts are made in China but they are assembled and sold in other countries like Japan and the u.s.a, Japan is not a part of China and they have different rules.
the new sticker looks similar to the fake one, but it is not hand applied or have any typos. (There was a release version that had one typo thought)

I even have a DSi and the sticker also says "pending patents".
I going use a Game Cude controller for Mario Kart 8 and Super Smash Bros For Wii U
you can't there are no slots for the controllers go into, unless you have one of those special Gamecube to USB cables
I have an Adapter that allow to plug a Gamecude Controller into a Wii remote
NFSCamilo4 oh ok then lol sorry
sian973 Yeah people on Amazon make these adapters and sell them for 20 bucks. :I Over half of them loosely fit on a Gamecube controller. Easy to pull off. Easy disconnection.

The Hilarious thing is that the Wii U can support Game Cube controllers now
My controller buttons dont shake and it says nintendo on the back the light looks normal but the back sticker is what he has but i also got it from best buy is mine fake?
It was so funny "Niniendo". I laughed so much!
I bought mine at GameStop and I could not scratch the Wii u sign, it say it was made in China and says mod. Wup-005, but says harmful instead of mar. I don't even know
And it does not raddled
I mean may not mar. I guessing it's still fake even in GameStop
+Sir. Snivy and it says Nintendo
+Sir. Snivy If its from gamestop its bot fake if you have not figurer out yet lol legit shops like gamestop never sells fake stuff this is EBay we are talking about.
Look for "Hecho en China" (Made in China) on the label in the back of the controller. If you don't see that it's a fake.
OMFG that 1st f***ing elephant made me s**t my pants .-.
i got a pro controller from amazon i forgot to see where it was from but the pro controller lags and turns off so does that mean its fake?????
So

Don't blame eBay, blame the person who sold it to you. (Hands knife)
Too late to return it. You could have.
Wait, will smash 4 be compatible with the Wii classic controller (the one that plugs in like the nunchuck)? 3D world used this and I wanted to know if it will work with smash.

how does it make you feel that the wii u supports now the gamecube controller
Recently got a legit Pro controller. The WiiU logo is perfectly smooth and embedded in the gloss, and you'll get nothing running your nail over it. Mine has only a very faint rattling of the face buttons, and the LEDs do indeed have clear frosted plastic over them like Wiimotes, which cuts down on the glare. The label on the back besides the text, is two logos. NOM and NYCE.
And it says Nintendo. With a T.
Who cares what the hell it said, saying Nintendo means it's still made in China, unless you live in Japan, every in the US is freaking made in China.
My wii pro controler has the same sticker as the one he showed AND I bought mine from toys r us. Dose that mean that MINE is a fake
buy off amazon very trustworthy, mostly sold from america as far as I know, and the prices are decent.
i think it is mostly sold from america because the other countries have their own amazon domain
I thought so but I wasn't sure
If you read the reviews, it says that some pele get the real deal and some people get fake controllers.
Oh how it has changed
@@patrickwwallace89 I was barely starting high school when I made these comments
i bought my pro controller at target and it has the same sticker on the back as yours but without the spelling errors but it does say patents pending o now im all worried
You bought these for so cheap that you don't even want to disclose it. That alone should've told you that you were getting fakes. And you kept buying MORE? Dude I cannot feel sorry for you. This is a bad case of "your fault".
Now the news about gamecube controller beig supported for Smash, what are you gonna do?
This is why I always buy my controllers from EB Games (The canadian Gamestop).
The United States used to have EB Games, I just assumed they went out of business.
Dipper723
EB Games and Gamestop are actually the same thing. Different names for some reason though.
Dipper723 NO. EBGAMES IS GAMESTOP. EB GAMES IS POWERED BY GAMESTOP.
MDK GameStop bought EB Games a while back if I'm not mistaken. Some EB Games kept the name.
+Smashcast same
I'm confused. My parents bought me two controllers and they have that sticker on the back. The cord is right, and everything else checks out. The problem is that they said they got the controllers at Walmart. The buttons clack when I shake the controller and the sticks have yellowed a bit but does this mean those controllers were fake?
It means stop eating cheetos while playing with your controller.
Wrong gamecube controllers will be available
This was a year ago-_-
ninja are you talking to me or the person who made the vid
He was talking to you
blehe38
I feel sorry for this guy
switchtalent123 How much do you want to bet he's new to the internet?
question why did you try to scratch off nintendo's mark on the nes? :)
I have a black one and the sticker is similar to the fake one you have, but with NO typos, it was bought from Best Buy in Canada so I know it is legit
Four Yeah, same. He got some things in the video wrong.
Yup liar liar plants for hire
+Dillon Sipayboun he looks about 5 or 6 💁🏻😂
I love how he says he "flat out knows that Gamecube controllers won't be able to be used." Almost a year later, Gamecube adapter.
dude, that's ILLEGAL. Report the guy who sold those to Nintendo or the cops or something!
No he is right it is fake I can tell
Leonora Eyas I cant stand when I try my legs are off key no 1 will play wii u with me hashtag pies
Leonora Eyas they never said it was not fake.. anyway pikagirl, they did not sell them to nintendo someone made those controllers sold them on ebay :) but yes its till illegal so you are right in a way. :)
SpicyGames WTF it is a fake! why would nintendo misspell their own logo!?!?!
Just Another UA-camr - Literally Another UA-camr I never said that. Learn to read. I said they are fake.
I have a black Wii U pro controller that says the same things, but with no misspellings or the blinding lights or any of those problems. Is mine fake? BTW it was a gift so I don't know where I got it.
nope it isn't a fake probably came from these stores "target,Walmart,Toys R us" because if you get them from those stores there ral
+King Diamond *real*
+King Diamond also games top the pro controllers are real
Spent $80 on two Pokemon Ruby games and they both were bootlegs that didn't save.
Why the hell would you spend $80 on two Pokemon Ruby games???? Doesn't that sound a little TOO expensive to you?
R-Tistic Remix you do know that the older a Pokemon game gets, the more it's value goes UP?
Silver3May That's bullshit.. Everyone has the older Pokemon games..
There are a lot of long time Pokemon fans and I have almost every cartridge..
+Silver3May You can get it for free on any emulator...
so who in the right mind would spend that much.
Emulating a game you don't own is illegal. I don't care if you probably won't get caught.
my question is, it has any diference in functionally? it works same as the original? besides the less battery capacity, it has another diference? it whort but it ?
Animekai - Zone doesent matter if they work the same he payed for the real thing whos gonna use a fake controle when you payed enough for a real one
He never said how much he paid, obviously it's alot cheaper than the real controller.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA I LOVE THE ELEPHANT IN THE VIDEO XD
Same thing with an Xbox 360 played downloaded game but not by the disk it would give a error screen
Doh!!!!!!!!, nah.., thanks for the heads up. I will just get them at my local store.
my friend got a fake gamecube controller from gamestop .it didnt work on games or anything and my friends wii controller that connects to the classic wii controller only works on wii menu
Ebay is SH*T. I have a friend that has gotten like 3 broken items from there out of the 5 things he's bought. NEVER, use Ebay.
You just gotta be careful who you buy from... USE ebay
I bought my pair of v-moda crosfades off eBay and their practically mint. Got them for $80 when they retail for $200...tell your friend to stop buying from shady ass sellers...
Mark Manuel why sell broken stuff on ebay if no one will buy it because its broken
I use amazon
and i also know some people who ordered stuff on ebay only for it not to come
Do you have a video for wii pro controller? How can i tell with these?
Niniendo
Sounds smart!
I got one of those Wii U Pro controllers from China (£10 / $15), the analog sticks are not smooth at all! Impossible to aim on Breath of the Wild..
Do the Chinese controllers and Wii U controllers use different Charging connections?
There's this cool thing called amazon. It's a cool new website where you get what you buy. You don't get that at your average best buy...
Not anymore haha
I got 2 Wii Nunchucks from GameStop/EBGames and they start to break quickly. They stop working like after a few weeks (They make their own Nunchucks)
Dont get gamestop brand stuff. U can get it from gamestop but make sure its in the actual nunchuck box
Thx! When I get the Wii u (soon) I'll be careful!
lol wassup box
No not the wii u the controller
+Bryan Encarnacion he will be carefull about the controllers when he gets a wii u! Hes not that dumb
SuperQ32 I mean the game pad
+Bryan Encarnacion Whaaa? Whatever
My controller had everything that makes it real but the only thing that was different was the sticker. Does it make it fake?
Sad story.... and call me an idiot but.. I love your censorship XD
My pro controller from target says made in China and patent pending. But it does not have the misspellings
WHO THE HELL BUYS STUFF OFF EBAY DUDE BUY OFF AMAZON
I buy off of ebay
+Conor Moore i buy from ebay too
I got some 3ds games and a 3ds off of there and I didn't get scammed so yeahh
ebay is usually cheaper
+Conor Moore At least bad feedback goes through on e bay.
Just for info, that little block on the cable is called a choke, it's used to prevent back EMF from destroying your kit, it's basically a ferrite core with the cable looped through it. Nothing to do with RF at all :)
don't buy anything from eBay :P
unless it's from a company
mine says "PATENTS PENDING" and the FCC Rules etc. I got mine from a Best Buy. Weird.
ROFL NINIENDO
I bought a Wii U new from the store and the gamepad had that same label on the back (minus the typos, of course). The information about interference has mostly to do with legally protecting themselves if signals from air traffic control or government satellites interfere with the product. Since radio waves transmit information, it makes sense that the FCC is involved. My legit one also says "PATENTS ISSUED AND PENDING."
Niniendo xD
"Interferenice" :P
My wii u pro controller has the same back sticker, but without any spelling errors, and I bought it at best buy (pre-owned) it does have a rattling noise, but the sticker is in tact and unscratchable, and the lights aren't blinding. Is there still a good chance that it's fake?
*by sticker, I mean logo
i have a used pro controller that does not have any of the sings of being fake. the wii u logo doesent scratch off, the buttons dont make unusualy loud sound when they are shaken, the lights arent blinding, it doesent say niniendo, but then i saw the sticker and saw that it had the same sticker as the fake one, minus the typo. is mine real or fake?
and i also saw the pro controller review of ign and it has the same sticker. are you sure that the sticker in the picture you showed was the real deal? becouse ign's pro controller doesent have it. it has the one you said was fake. (minus the typo) vut i 100% agree with you. never order from china. u rock man! :)
It's real. Guy doesn't really know what the real controller looks like. The Pro Controller does have a similar sticker as his fake and DOES say "Patents Pending"
