http://www.planetgamecube.com/media/hw014300001.jpgThis is a standard controller with an interesting extra feature. By blowing air on your hands during gameplay, Nyko's patented Air Flo technology is designed to destroy sweaty hand syndrome. Featuring a whopping 10-foot cable and
competitive pricing, the GameCube model will be available in October.

Yeah, but (to me at least) it sounds like a pretty good idea.. like especially when you're playing fighting games and your palms get all sweaty and stuff and it's all sticky and gross in the dead of summer and you just flick on a little switch-a-roo and *poof* ze hands are dry.. I dunno.. seems kinda cool to me :unsure:

Yes, but people always complain that the gamecube control isnt good for fighting because the d-pad is hard to reach, so this is good for fighting games, also the layout of the buttons.

That looks exactly like a PS2 controller... But what ch gonna fo I guess.
It looks good. I like those grip pads... Because you know, I hate it when the controller slips out of my hand because of all the sweat.

Tell ya the same thing i tell everyone else who complains of such a silly thing.
DONT HOLD THE CONTROLLER WITH A FREAKING DEATH GRIP.
sheesh. your hands dont sweat if your not holding it that tight. need to relax. i mean think about it, theres absolutly no reason for your hands to sweat. i could hold onto a controller for days and not have it sweat at all...... well unless i was in like +100 degree weather..
Anywho. it looks like a ps2 controller. but ps2 controller still better. it has 4 shoulder buttons :)

I wouldn't bother if it requires it's own power source such as batteries. If it can run off the Gamecube, maybe. But I usually don't go with third party products.

that'll be a good idea for those KOF 2d fighting games.
Apparently CVS2 has utilised the GC controller to be really good.
Dunno how though :unsure:

Usually with fighting games I don't use the grip. I kinda rest the controller on my lap (similar to how you play the games @ the arcades).
So the grip really would do nothing for me :unsure:
I personally think they should have left the grip stuff off. A waste of rubber if you ask me.:unsure:
