Megatron:
They are by PDP, but the difference, as you said, they come with he official Nintendo Seal of Approval.

I have the Hori pads...they're ok. The buttons seem better than on the PDP ones, though. Except for the triggers...those are kind of weak on the Hori models.
And I agree, nothing beats the original gamecube controllers. That said, these controllers are kind of like Amiibo for me...I just want them all, in their boxes, on a shelf. I can't explain why, I'm just a sucker for a series of controllers, especially one that has Link in it.

oatmeal flavor:
Luigi, I think, can only be bought at Gamestop. I also plan on getting the set and keep them boxed. The Wario one looks the best in my opinion.

N64 Guy:
I must get two of each. Because smash bros!!!

larryinc64:
Ok, I'm done with limited edition Smash Bros stuff, and special edition controllers I'm never going to use.

I MIGHT get a Mario and Luigi set if they are available In a month or two, but I already have 8+ GC controllers, and a 3rd party GC controller with a Classic Wii plug.

I don't know if it's a Gamestop exclusive but it wouldn't surprise me. Nobody has it on their website except for GS. And Luigi, at least at the moment, is pretty damn hard to find. At least in the 3 major areas that I frequent (San Diego, Nothern VA and Upstate NY). That said, I was able to find one at a Gamestop about 20 miles north of me. So I was pretty relieved. Knowing my luck, they won't make any more of these and I would have the whole set minus one.

I don't love their look, but I don't hate it either. I have seen nicer peripherals and accessories in the past, but since I do not collect Amiibo (and considering some are already impossible to find I doubt I will), these 8 controllers will look nice lined up next to my unopened Smash Bundle.
