2007 AADL-GT Season Wrapup, and Awards Banquet this Friday!

Tue, 12/18/2007 - 1:34am by eli

This past weekend, the Downtown Library played host to the most intense event in town: the 2007 AADL-GT Super Smash Double Dash Grand Championship and Festival of N00bs! With some truly fierce competitors lined up to play, a ferocious afternoon of multiplayer mayhem was upon us, and the results, while disappointing to some, did not disappoint spectators, as the competition reached a fever pitch in the final round, which featured two members from each of this season's two super clans: [gtplayer:382] and [gtplayer:788] of Clan US, and [gtplayer:197] and [gtplayer:736] of the Brothers of Maplewood squaring off on the most unpredictable track in Kartdom, the infamous Baby Park. Read on to see what happened, and for full details of the AADL-GT Awards Banquet and Clan Cup, coming this Friday, 12/21 at 6 PM at the Downtown Library!

Prior to the finals, 27 N00bs fought their way towards 8 spots in the Grand Championships, with [gtplayer:822] siezing the top spot and 2006 Grand Champion [gtplayer:737] taking second, while [gtplayer:795], [gtplayer:380], [gtplayer:1028], [gtplayer:216], [gtplayer:340] and [gtplayer:774] rounding out the wildcard spots. From 52 Grand Championship challengers, 4 of the 8 wildcards failed to make the cut to 32, along with Smash Master [gtplayer:483] who had some bad luck and dropped out. The cut down to 8 was particularly brutal, claiming both [gtplayer:614] and [gtplayer:606], as well as [gtplayer:737] and the always-impressive [gtplayer:457], and forcing a fraternal tiebreaker between [gtplayer:143] and [gtplayer:146] from which older brother, 2004 Grand Champion and aging-out [gtplayer:143] emerged victorious, only to fail to advance to the final round.

When the dust cleared, season 1 3rd place winner [gtplayer:197] emerged victorious, snapping up the Wii, while [gtplayer:382] finished an amazing season by taking second prize (an iPod Nano) and moving to the top of the season's leaderboard. [gtplayer:736] then beat his rap by taking third prize (a Nintendo DS) after taking lousy 4th place prizes in both 2004 and 2006; while Smash Master [gtplayer:788] fought his way through Kart rounds to take 4th place (an iPod shuffle).

It was another successful season, with intense rivalries old and new, marked by the utter dominance of two clans and some truly amazing matches at every turn. Now, with most of the competition behind us, there's only one score left to settle: the end of 2007's remarkable clan season, and the final showdown between Clan Us and the Brothers of Maplewood, among other contenders. The GT Awards will start with the Clan Cup at 6 PM on 12/21, featuring some truly amazing suprise games and 6 trophies and $50 games awaiting the winning clan.

After the Clan Cup, we will have Jimmy John's for dinner, and then a few Grudge Matches; we'll then finish up with the Awarding of 2007 Achievement Medals and our first-ever AADL-GT Hall Of Fame inductions. You can help by posting a comment below with your opinions on what grudge matches you'd like to see, as well as your nominations for the following season awards:

Most Valuable Player
Most Improved Player
Rookie of the Year (must be someone who did not play in any season 3 tournaments)

I've also got 5 other awards that will be at my discretion. Let me know your suggestions, or if you have any questions, and I'll see you guys Friday!

i'd have to give MVP to lima

i'd have to give MVP to lima or shin. fantastic overall.

improved player? hard to say. i improved a lot at smash, and i did fair at kart this season, so take that for what it's worth. shin improved much at kart though. so yeah.

dunno any rookies

heartbreaking loss? dunno.

outstanding sportsmanship? me obviously.... hahahahaa. but i dunno. everyone's sort of... meh at it.

tournament was cool. def. selling ipod shuffle on ebay. hahah. can get it for like $70. whoopee.

btw you're all getting destroyed at clan cup. : )

also i checked the final 8 points standings, and that time riley killed himself, that gave me a total of 300 points overall. 10 more over turtleperson2.

el oh el. <3's riley.

a lack of rookies but the

a lack of rookies but the best,(and only I can think of) is notra

omega-sportsmanship should

omega-sportsmanship should go to that one kid who allowwed me to to the the simi finals even though i lost to him.(sd) he didn't care about the money he just wanted to be fair.

I now remember that master

I now remember that master AJ and pyromaniac are rookies that made impacts, but notra is still my #1 for rookie of the year

for heartbreaking loss: snowman who could have made it to the final four over lain if he had beaten tp2 in the final match of the round of 8

for sportsmanship I nominate my brother monkeyman....lol yeah right, for real maybe Dale W, he deserves to win something

chi chi let u win.... also

chi chi let u win....

also most improved...me
mvp- lain
rooky -notra
heartbreaking loss snowman...
sportsmanship- ???

rooky i'd actually have to

rooky i'd actually have to give consideration to Pyromaniac. he made it decently far.

sportsmanship could be chi-=chi. that is correct.

Most Valuable Player-

Most Valuable Player- Shin

Most Improved Player- Lain

Rookie of the Year- Notra hands down

Heartbreaking Loss Award- Mojo 2 stocking lain or swordsensei beating shin when both were at high percentages during smash brackets lolz

Outstanding Sportsmanship Award- Dale W definitely........or that one kid that yelled out "(insert someones name) you snorker, ill beat your snork when we get home" or something like that during grands

and jimmy johns??? woo hoo ive never had jimmy johns before but always hear good things about it

grudge matches
-shin vs swordsensei (if my brothers allowed to come)

-Pwnerer Vs John, though john will proly wimp out =p

swordsmaster the snorker you

swordsmaster the snorker you snorker was probally the best display of brotherly love i've seen at these tourneys

Also JimmyJohns is probally the 8th wonder of the world be prepared for a world of happiness when eating JJ's

for the last time mojo beat

for the last time mojo beat me when i didn't think i was playing him. AND i was falcon. on friggin onnett. -_- i thought mojo was someone else... ;;;;

mojo is def. pretty good and stuff though, he knows his fox tech. no mindgames though. : /

major johns but oh well. heck, i'd play him again on same stage, stage character if he wants. *shrugs*

for most improved john is a

for most improved john is a good choice, but even better is the other durski, tub o lard. He jumped from 21st last year up to 10th this year, improving in both kart and smash

MvP shin most improved John.

MvP shin
most improved John. he moved from 4th to 3rd
rookie would either be pyromaniac or notra probably Notra though
id like a rematch of my low teir match against john.
"Play it to the bone"

omega-lain stop with the

omega-lain stop with the mind games thing. you say it like you the master of it all or something. The last time i played you i didn't see anything mind gameish sooo yeah. O_o oh and we will be there eli because they canceled the tournament.

i don't act like i'm the

i don't act like i'm the master of it, i'm merely stating that i have SOME and everyoe at the aadl except cisco have ZERO.

you don't realize it and you know what? that's why you lose.

omega- thats why i lose....

omega- thats why i lose.... to who? Anyways just because someone doesn't have something doesn't mean you should use that against them. Yes i can tell you i don't have any mind games but i can still manage to beat you and cisco then what does that say about you?

most improved me 15th to 1st

most improved me 15th to 1st heellooo!
best freshy award! me or omega

holder of the 12000th post and the STD post and holder of most superscope glitches performed in aadl matches, 3 to be exact and probably more next time

lol if your basing most

lol if your basing most improved on who jumped up the most on the leaderboard then check out jacobk from 87-12 although its true he only went to 2 of the tournaments last yr

i still say lain though, he went from not even being able to get past first round of brackets last yr to owning everyone

Why is there so much bonus

Why is there so much bonus for the grands the top people in the grands got up to 5 levels of bonus?

nah i wont wimp out!!!! i

nah i wont wimp out!!!! i aint no lil noob. i gotz a scraper bike and i will win the grudge match! vs chi chi and cisco :)

I'd like to nominate D-Rex

I'd like to nominate D-Rex for MVP, while there might be players with a better score than him (although he's ranked the highest of anyone), he's the most valuable player. Without him, the BoM would not have been nearly as successful. As an example, he and I won 1st and 3rd in Single Kart in round 4 because he played well as a teammate. If he hadn't held the blue shell, then I wouldn't have been guaranteed first. He finished in 3rd, despite a one item handicap because he's skilled enough to do that.

I think that when looking for an MVP you have to think of who they are valuable to, because if they are valuable to no one, but themselves then they really aren't an MVP.

"TORTURIS EXUVIAS EUNT"

P.S. If I would've known that I wouldn't move on, I would've let Snowman beat me.

omega-happy new years

omega-happy new years everyone. Oh and i got my first varsity tournament comming up so wish me good luck. I've been practicing alot. Just today alone i did 1000 jump ropes, ran, lefted and drilled so im pretty determined to win.

good luck buddy!

i thought youve already gone

i thought youve already gone to a bunch of varsity meets before

Through my experience in

Through my experience in gaming tournaments, I've noticed that the most popular games stick the longest. As you all have noticed, Mario Kart was our first game, then came Super Smash Bros Melee. Those two stuck for four whole seasons. Now there is a possibility for Super Smash Bros Brawl to take a spot. Due to the popularity of Melee, Brawl will have a slim chance in making a spot in a front-running game in our Library Tournaments.
Before you question my thoughts, I'm basing this on my tournament experience, not skill in a Gamecube game. I play many other games most of the time. I may suck at Melee, but I'm very good at Halo PC and Duck Hunt. Anyways, I have attended many Halo PC tournaments. Even after Halo 2 Vista surfaced, the tournaments stuck with Halo PC. Several reasons had to do with gameplay and game physics.
The same goes for Brawl. Even if it were to be released before the next tournament, there is a small chance it will be implemented into the next tournament. I believe it may be put into the prize round, or maybe an offshoot tournament like the Melee Throwdown nights.

[gtlogo:RED]

kirby's dream course is too

kirby's dream course is too good

nah brawl should be the new

nah brawl should be the new game.

EBD you make some good

EBD you make some good points, but the truth is that the wii has been out for about 2 years now and to my knowledge hasn't produced any tourtament built multiplayer games brawl figures to be a great game and will sell many copies in the first week.
So even if melee is very popular when people see brawl and have a wii they will be playing brawl unless it is an horrible game. So if you put on a flyer super smash bros. tourney that will appeal to many people, but the game is seven years old now so bringing out a new fresh game will bring in many more people. The bulk of this tourney are more causal gamers attracted to the newer thing maybe now what is the better game.

Im pretty sure there wasn't even going to be a discussion about switching to brawl if the resources were in place, but you make some points that probally should be addressed at the planning meeting. Also I don't think we should narrow our selves to kart and super smash only titles. Lets say mario Kart wii is complete garbage maybe we try something else like mario strikers or someother game comes along that would fit all the criteria of a tourney well.

omega-yeah i've been in

omega-yeah i've been in varsity meets but never a tournament. tournaments are alot more serious because only the very best from the schools team go. For example only 7 out of the 35 people we have go to the varsity tournament.

did you win buddy?

and is brawl gonna be used in the next season...

or will all of this be talked over at the next season preview meeting thingy...

doomblaze if your reading this STOP NOW AND GO PLAY BRAWLLLLLLLL!!!!!!

I wouldnt say letting

I wouldnt say letting someone who is better than you win is sportsman ship

Hall o ffame inductions
TP2
Duck
Pickwick the Second who i think should have the sportsman ship award named after him
Leinad
Tom

thats about all i can think of right now

As for a possible best/most suprising win how bout the John vs. Pwner match
maybe a possible rematch too

MVP I would say Shin has probally the most combined talent in both games even though he isnt the best in either

How bout Dale for MVP too Dale as of right now is the highest rated ACTIVE kart player and his smash skill are very good. He also could be up there for sportsman ship

Is most improved refering to over this season or from previous seasons
From Previouus seasons I'd say John who looking at the ratings was projected to finish 5th in our clan, but was #1 in our clan and pretty highly ranked

Lain has gotten better throughout this season and from previous seasons as well

Also heartbreaking loss award since i really dont remember many matches I'd go with TP@ getting 5th at the grands this season by 10 points

Sounds good see you guys there

thesoviet and Pyromaniac=

thesoviet and Pyromaniac= Best rookie team!!! w00t

i DID improve an amazing

i DID improve an amazing amount at smash. more then anyone has improved at s single game so *shrugs*

omega, yeah you beat me. but do i actually try? no. does cisco? hahahan no.

*shrugs* think what you want. haha.

you guys are obviously pretty good. VERY good tech skill so it's sort of ridiculous. don't get me wrong. i'm not insulting you guys are anything : )

omega-O_o O.k but we are about to start our own tournaments so we can get some more experience to fill in the gabs. k :)

yeah yeah don't stick your

yeah yeah don't stick your chest out to far. someone might pop it.

Not a challenge/grudge just

Not a challenge/grudge just a friendly but if you wanna be like that then all I gotta say is talk to the knee. haha.

Well if we are going from

Well if we are going from last year id have to say me. I went from 120-16 thats like 104 spots which is 103 more than 1.
"Play it to the bone"

hahaha. let's not get mad

hahaha. let's not get mad here omega. ahaha.

i obviously don't play to lose, but it's not like when you beat me occasionally in a library friendly it's everything. :p

don't get me wrong, i didn't say you guys suck or anything. you guys have excellent tech skill. better then me or cisco's. and you have some thought when you play, but not as much as me or cisco put into it. *shrugs* i'm only saying this to help you get better. i really don't mean this in a mean way to a fellow crew mate.

Shin: i totally agree with u

Shin: i totally agree with u lain. The reason i say that is because to gain GOOD MINDGAMES you have obtain a GOOD amount of competive play experience and looking at us the only touri we've been to is........ well, the only one i've went to was when cisco had a touri while back (lain= peach). But the only reason were good at tech is because thats basically all u can practice when everybody in your area are basically noobs(BoM). so yeah its no biggy... well with me atleast.

its not really by # of spots

its not really by # of spots its by difficulty to gain spots so i still win or will

Hey eli am i allowed to change my clan for the clan cup? If so id like to join BYAH.

Nothing personal swordmaster im just tryin to help out a couple friends also, ive counted the points so you should still be in the cup. Also wihout me you still have the necessary amount of ppl to participate. of course if im wrong ill gladly stay, I don't want to screw you over or anything but I kinda made a promise that i wouldn't want to re-nig on.

lol no im just joking around

lol no im just joking around cause im really bored. *sigh* wish it was 2morrow so much

that makes 2

wait chichi were you serious

wait chichi were you serious or not cause im not gonna stop you from whatever you wanna do but i think that would be unfair for the 8th place clan right now (shadowfire) so i doubt eli would let you, and if u actually wanna switch you need to be 100% sure tonight so i can remake preparations

also eli if you see this and chichi is able to switch can i add a new member to my clan then? since we'd have one open spot and by any chance can swordsensei participate in this?

Also, does it make me a nerd for watching the Season 1 Grands DVD today whilst cleaning my room?

"Play it to the bone"

yeah actually i've noticed

yeah actually i've noticed mindgames don't come directly from experience but rather having to play people with better tech skill.

if it weren't for mindgames i would lose nearly all my matches. it's pretty obvious that i miss lots of l-cancels, do attacks that i didn't mean to do, etc.

you guys coped with loss by raising tech skill against mindgames and i had to raise mindgames to deal with tech skill. i've never had particularly good tech skill and DI is more of a mindgame (in that you know what you're going to get hit by and when) than a tech skill thing but (wall/ledge) teching is tech skill.

anyways mindgames and tech skill are both important, the emphasis on mindgames comes from the fact that at extremely high levels of play nearly everyone has flawless tech skill. also mindgames are much harder to acquire than tech skill.

as for you guys beating me yeah it happens but you gotta remember i sandbag somewhere around 99% of the time. pretty much unless there's something to lose on it i barely try. i remember being in a bad mood at Grands and trying in a match and i think i fourstocked shin.

this is cisco

what cisco says is de

what cisco says is de troof.

also, cisco DOES sandbag like 99% of the time. only like unless he has something highly valuable to gain or lose will he play even his half-best.

i've seen cisco play all out. it wasn't pretty.

yeah he was playing all out

yeah he was playing all out against me and i got 3 stocked =(

i see you're trying to be modest, and yet make yourself look decent at the same time. -_- fool.

i guarantee if cisco was playing all out, you wouldn't get a stock off, because i play you normally while sandbagging a little and i three stock you!

Shin: hey lain and

Shin: hey lain and cisco....... i guess the to resolution to "whos truely better in smash" will have to be resolve in a money match :). just email me if u agree to this wager so we can set this set up :) if this doesnt bring the best out of u then, nothing will

I realized while watching

I realized while watching the replay of the GC yesterday that "Leinad" is just "Daniel" backwards. Huh. I always figured it some some obscure fantasy character or something. That only took, what, 3 years for the cluestick to hit me?

Also just wanted to say I had a great time this season; maybe I'll be able to remember some people's names next year.

If anybody plays TF2 on PC, let me know, it'd be great to team up with some familiar players instead of pwning unknown n00bs all day.

I'll link my steam stats on my profile page soon.

omega- yeah right box boy.

omega- yeah right box boy. when you had just got halo 3 you were posting every 3 min.(about game fuel remember)

Anyways i was bored so i made up something to talk about. duu i don't have brawl. but i do have melee and kart and have been practicing so when i come back i can own everyone. Noob or pro it doesn't matter. oh and b.o.m i know your team took some big hits and ours did to so why don't we make a new clan together.

1.me
2.d-rex
3.shin
4.limabean
5.monkeyman
6.????? cisco vs bad driver vs tub o lard vs mike s vs

think smart this clan could be even more powerful then US.

i like that cept monkeyman

i like that cept monkeyman is going with funzo and doomblaze next year...

so i will gladly sent you an invite....

#1 shin
#2 omega
#3 d-rex
#4 johninabox (box boy)
#5 limabean
#6 dale w.... or your choice of a player.

also ill done have halo 3.... and ill take a photo with me and my 12 gamefuels and post it...

if you wanna make any corrections in my idea feel free to do so.

Hey guys, lots of my friends

Hey guys, lots of my friends just got their DS, so we'll have a DS gaming thing at the Free Plays, this week. Come if you want.

its a long story but to make it short..

he no in our clan- he mad
he mad- he complain
he complain- problems emerge
problems emerge- he has to b in our clan next year

so monkeyman and doomblaze and funzo and notra will b in a clan 4 sure.

im a juinor not a senior. also in the first clan year it was me tubolard d-rex and matt kloiber.

monkeyman was with funzo arjan and dale w the first year.

i would really like to be with you and your bro in a clan next year but there is acatch.

im staying with drex and aikem and tubolard. so that is a solid 4 and we need 2 more spots. we would really like you to join us.

next year it will b brawl not smash. so you dont have to make a decesion now but just keep in mind that tubolard johninabox and drex and aikem all have wiis and reserves on brawl.. and i will be playing it for a week straight...

ill c you at the brawl turni at the library and if you like our skils then you are still welcome to combine with us.

i'm still 10x better then

i'm still 10x better then all of you. : ) gg

RJ is still too good though. haha.

uhhmmmmmm i dunno, i'd advise you take cisco. he is still the best smasher around. and no, when brawl comes it won't "all reset". mindgames can still be applied to brawl. just the tech will be different.

sounds like a good clan. i'm too good though, second time clan winner yayuhzz. i hate you, francisco mata. hahahha.

rick roll'd is too good.

omega-yeah we are gonna see

omega-yeah we are gonna see who is the best smasher around next year. sheesh. if you sandbag 99% of the time on auto pilot then i wouldn't call you good. i would call that thinking you are better then what you really are. basiclly it saying oh i never play for real execpt when i win. duuu, lain stop being ciscos freakin cheer leader! he an't that good. He's good but he an't that good.

i'm not his cheer leader,

i'm not his cheer leader, just trying to inform you that he he has a lot more experience then everyone else, and is a lot smarter.

if you sandbag 99% of the time, that COULD be a sign that.... everyone....is horrible. at the aadl. : )

and i mean all i'm saying is... cisco is probably like #5 or 6 in MI. you guys would get wrecked at the UofM biweeklies by random nonames, i assure you this 100%.

not being mean, just telling it like it is. i'm just trying to give you guys some perspective on it all.

when does the season start

when does the season start up again?

omega-alright i'll put it

omega-alright i'll put it like this, i don't think that anyone at aadl is better then me at smash. Im not looking down at anyone but i see no one above me. Whether or not you sandbag or not a lost is a lost. you can't change that.I Know i've only been to one tourni before but, if i had more experience there is no telling how good i could be. Anyways you won't sandbag in a mm so we'll have to wait for that. The sad thing about this whole sitution is that you go all around the world and still suck up to cisco. You should be the BEST but, you are not.

P.S cisco changed his name to wlsmaho? To be honest he even thinks your his cheer leader. Nobody rides ciscos jock but you lain! dang, let him speak for himself sometime.

say what you want. ; ) just

say what you want. ; ) just wait for the mm.

Shin: lain he's right about

Shin: lain he's right about 1 thing u should be best.

But Anyways.... Does anyone have a gamertage for xbox live? i just got mine and i really want to play somebody in halo 3 :)

dont play halo 3 brawl is

dont play halo 3 brawl is sooo much cooler. play brawl.

omg i just realized now that

ill be the top player in brawl BELIVE IT!

i almost forgot my 12pac of gamefuel.... let me upload them to a site then ill post a link.

Since my old Gamecube wont

Since my old Gamecube wont work for more than 20 minutes, I'm getting a new (used) one. I really want one because my friend Alberto is willing to let me borrow Ocarina of Time: Master Quest. How is it? I also just got a PS2-USB adapter so I can play Stepmaina on my feet (finally.) I've forced Danny to download it because he has a bigger room and more space for two pads.

To Eli:
Kevin has just told me that he has left his Xbox 360 cables at the library. I dunno if this is true but could you give a look? If they are, let me know on this board. Thanks in advance.

To Tom:
Only one character could have that Final Smash. That character is obviously Rash from Battletoads.

To Limabean:
The next event that is of any importance (to me) is the planning meeting. It is on February 28th. This is where we will discuss the rules and games we will have at the next tournament.

To John:
As for Brawl, we will be talking about that at the meeting. As I've said before, Melee may still be the main game either due to the game physics, or the popularity at the time. Brawl may only end up at special tournaments such as Melee throwdowns.

My best idea is to have someone watch the polls and popularity of SSBB on the internet and in the AADL to see if it will be requested the most. Obviously we don't want to put in a game that few people have bought and played.

Remember Everyone:
The month coming up to the planning meeting (this month) is extremely crucial to come up with ideas and arguments to present there. Thats why we must put aside pointless arguments and taunting if you want to have a fun time at the tournaments next summer. Start thinking up ideas of what we can do for the Library to make it more popular. Think about your time at the tournaments: Did you have fun? Are there any rules you think are unfair? Is there a game you think everyone would like to play?
Think about other tournaments: Do you want more Guitar Hero/DDR tournaments? What are your thoughts on how the Rhythm Master/Classic Gaming tournaments went? Any ideas for new events?

Whatever you think should happen, post it. Don't think you cannot change the rules. This whole thing is gamer-based. As long as you make a good reason to why a rule or game should be changed, then it may be considered.

[gtlogo:RED]

ok... but no banned stages

ok... but no banned stages plz

it just makes the game noob if we take out any stages, the stages in brawl are soo kool.

plus IF it is an "unfair" stage then it is "unfair" for EVERYONE

if we're talking about

if we're talking about stages in melee then there are stages thats unfair NOT to everyone

for example if a fox and say a marth (or any other character) are playing on great bay this stage is unfair for the marth because once the fox has a stock up it can proceed to just running away which it could easily do in green bay by going back and forth the two platforms underneath and the marth would be too slow to do anything about it, and im sure there are stages in brawl that are like this also

you can say that running like that is unfair but really, they dont really DQ ppl that do that......the best way to avoid this is to just ban unfair stages such as that

also EBD i have 2 gamecubes and im willing to sell one, i have master quest as well and since i never played oot before i thoroughly enjoyed it

For next season i am

For next season i am thinking we go with a brawl and kart combo unless brawl is a complete failure
I say for brawl unless there are some crazy items or stages play the game the way it is intended(all items and stages)
Though i think Eli has some big news about having AADL-GT go global so this should be interesting and i think we should hear more about that before any real conversation can happen

Well, swordmaster, that is

Well, swordmaster, that is extremely helpful of you. You may have saved me some money. I can get a gamecube at Gamestop for $30. I already have 6 controllers and all of the necessary cords and wires. So I'd like to hear your offer.
Also, I'm going to push to not ban the Shadow Moses Island (Metal Gear) stage. I always thought it would be a fun stage.
The game has retained several Melee stages which may fall under the ban list.
Levels from Melee (that are listed):
Hyrule Temple
Yoshi's Island
Corneria
Onett
Brinstar (not depths)
Rainbow Cruise

w/e its gonna be lame if we

w/e its gonna be lame if we ban stages but im not about to argue...

Hmmm how much are

Hmmm how much are controllers, because id offer you my gamecube for $20 and a controller (since u have six and all)

gotta get new/better controllers for brawl lol

Used controllers at Gamestop

Used controllers at Gamestop are $15, but its Gamestop. I'd say a working 1st party gamecube controller would run about $5. If you want your controllers, you can keep them. I have plenty.

lol no i meant i give you my

lol no i meant i give you my cube and you give me $20 plus one of your extra controllers
