There is no such thing as a "good" 3rd party controller. Quite often
the 3rd party controller are sold for less because they are built
cheaper to begin with.

Not to mention that they're usually far more uncomfortable and made for
cheaters (turbo buttons for games like Mario Party, auto input sequences for
fighting games). I've had so many bad experiences with 3rd-party
controllers it's not funny.

The GameCube's controller has some problems, but it's better than any
3rd-party ones, and probably a little better than a PS2 controller (it's
possible to get an adapter to use a PS2 controller that way).

Definitely Brooklyn - it's the first 3rd party controller in the history
which was IMHO even better than the original pad!

I have occasion to test some accesories, including GCN pad - and since
then as for me Brooklyn is the best 3rd party accesory producer.
