I make it a general rule to not buy third-party stuff at all if it can be avoided. 9 times out of 10, it's crap and breaks within a month or two. That's been my experience at least. I once bought a third-party GC controller and it lasted about 3 months. I still use the same WaveBird I bought when they first came out, what? Two years ago? First-party may cost a bit more, but the quality is far superior in that you don't need to pay for a replacement down the line.
