Amazon UK (http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00QXJF5YI) - February 27, 2015 (£23.85)
Amazon US (http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00QXJF5YI) - March 2, 2015 ($27.99)

Please note that this Hori Pikachu controller will connect via the Wiimote's bottom port (as such is recognised as a Classic Controller but with the style of a GameCube controller).

I've got this on pre-order and can't wait to get my own since I have wanted after they showed it off, only reason I didn't import was due to the custom fees.

The differences between this and a normal GameCube controller:
- D-PAD is bigger and better
- It connects via a Wiimote
- It only has digital triggers
- Has a left shoulder button (which the original did not)
- Only digital triggers
- Four buttons: Turbo, Select, Home and Start (the original only had one, Start/Pause)
- Pikachu themed controller
