    Now I'm assuming that controller was never released here, I never saw one myself. Would a japanese GC controller work for an american console?

    Actually, it was released here, in very small quantities. The American one said Game Boy Player Controller on it.

    But to answer your question, yes, controllers are universal.

    Same here. In fact, locally, we're lousy with 'em. All between $20 to $30.

    I'd like to pick up some of them hori pads... or, I can always get a snes to gc converter. Using the snes pad with the GC/GBAplayer might not be optimal (no Z button). I guess it just comes down to whichever is less expensive.
