Alright so last night, like tons of other gheymers, I bought smash bros for wii u. I got the game and I got the gamecube controller.

But not the adapter, they didn't have it there or elsewhere. I got it last night, and last night there was a lot of dumbass traffic and the roads were slick from the rain, fuck that.

I start looking around to see what other stores have the adapter I need, no one else here in town has it, best buy, walmart, gamestop, etc.

Then I looked at buying it online and saw this:

this device is a little piece of shit plastic that really only costs $19.99, but amazon is jacking the price up 6-fold

Now thats absurd: http://www.amazon.com/Super-Smash-Ga.../dp/B00L3LQ1FI

NOPE....FUCK THAT.

Doubt you find it anywhere for less than the 84.99 that's listed under 9 new. It's not Amazon determining the price it's Nintendo. Amazon's price is higher but shipping is free. The 9 new retailers will charge you for shipping bringing it a lot closer to the Amazon price. And I'll just bet it's because the game sucks without it.

Yeah fuck that shit! The amazon page says it's sold and shipped from "extendedplay77". Who ever or what ever that is needs to get their greedy head out of their ass.
