WaveDash Wireless GC controller for Wii U now on Kickstarter

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/wavedash/the-wavedash-controller

The Wave Dash is a modern take on the old GameCube Controller design. The difference between the WaveDash and a classic GameCube controller is that the left analog stick has been replaced with a more modern version, while the D-Pad is larger. Here’s a full look at some of the changes:

• Gone is the Left analog stick of old, replaced with a full size analog stick for better comfort and control.
• Each controller will have a USB rechargeable battery inside.
• Dual “Z” Bumpers. (Note: The new Pro Controller for the WiiU labels the BOTTOM triggers ZR and ZL, while the Bumpers are R and L. We will follow this naming convention as well.)
• Larger D-Pad for classic control.
• “Clickable” L/R Analog sticks.
• This controller will function exactly as 1st/3rd party controllers for the WiiU do now. No Wiimote or adapter needed.

The controller is currently available at the $44 reward level.
