Re: controller extension

I use a GC controller extension lead from hk ebay myself. Safe to buy ime and safe to use on my wii (in fact I'm thinking of getting another one to extend it even further).

I think you are going to struggle to get them much cheaper than that from the UK as they are around that or more for single cables..

I found that my Donkey Konga drums didn't like the extension cable for some reason, though. Worked intermitently.
