I got a wireless one at GameStop and a wired one at Best buy. I believe most local game stores might have it, stores like the Exchange also have used ones from my experience.

If you're looking for the original 2001 controllers then Ebay is easily the best place to shop.

If you want one of the newer Smash 4 or Smash Ultimate controllers you can find them at lots of places. Give any GameStop, Best Buy, or local shop a call and ask how many they have in stock.

The black ssbu nintendo controllers are on amazon if you dont want to deal with finding them in stock somewhere. They are the highest quality controllers still in production, at least to my knowledge. If you want a straight up OG GC controller still in the plastic wrap, probably ebay as mentioned above. won't be cheap though.

Like others say, eBay is a great choice. Finding a common used controller can be about $30+ and price will vary by the other colors being more rare. Just don't be fooled by 3rd parties that look nearly identical to the original. A way to tell is that they don't have the logo on the front of the controller.

You can find the Ultimate editions by local stores as I did for 3 of mine but some people have issues of their own when trying to find them. You can always look for them online but brand new ones seem to be more than double the original price, at least when I just looked at Amazon. Check GameStop online and you should find them new for $30 and if you want to go cheaper you can also buy them used. I'm saying this now because it's likely a used Ultimate controller would be near perfect condition considering they're fairly new. Might be a good opportunity if you're not feeling spending more than $30 and don't mind them being used a bit.
