Product Description
No Box to save on postal weight.

The Wii Nunchuck controller is a secondary controller that adds even more innovation to the next generation of gaming, and does it all with less physical movement.

Contoured perfectly to fit a player's hand, the Nunchuck controller builds on the simplicity of the Wii Remote controller. Also includes an analogue stick, and two buttons to help assist in character movement. Many games will allow you to control your character's movement with the Nunchuck in your left hand, while your right hand is free to execute the action movements with the Wii Remote.

For example, the Nunchuck is particularly useful for games like Wii Boxing. You can use the Nunchuck to punch with your weaker hand, while you use the Wii remote to punch and jab with your predominant hand.

In first-person shooters, the Nunchuck controller carries the burden of movement, freeing you to aim and fire using a more natural motion with the Wii Remote. In a football game, you can make your quarterback elusive with the Nunchuck controller while you search for an open receiver to throw to using the Wii Remote. Because the Wii Remote and Nunchuck controllers are only relatively dependent on each other, players are free to hold them in whichever hand is most comfortable.

Perfectly suitable for either right or left-hand use, the Wii Nunchuck controller grants accessibility not often seen in previous game controllers.

Also, the Nunchuck controller doesn't need its own power--it plugs into the Wii Remote controller when it's in use. So there's no need to worry about charging or replacing expensive batteries. Adding a Nunchuck to your Wii system will definitely help you open the doors to the next level of gaming, and seriously step up performance.

Just be careful not to knock out your significant other, or bruise the dog, severely, while using one, or two Nunchuck controllers.

5 out of 5 stars As good as the original   June 14, 2010
Keith Farrar
Wasn't sure how good this would be but I need not have worried. Arrived quickly in excellent condition. Does the job as good as the original so I saved even against other replicas.


5 out of 5 stars Wii need a second nunchuck.   April 29, 2010

--What is a nunchuck--

The nunchuck serves a multitude of purposes depending on which game you play. Some games even rely soley on the Wii remote but using the nunchuck enhances the gaming experience greatly. The nunchuck is connected to the Wii remote via a data cable which is plugged into the bottom of the remote, this clicks into place easily and unclips by pressing in the 2 sides of the clip whilst pulling it out.

The nunchuck comprises an analogue directional controller and a button (known as the Z button) on the end of it.

--Usage--

As well as being used as a directional controller the nunchuck has plenty of other uses. I was really surprised to find out that the nunchuck also contains the same motion sensors as the Wii remote which means that any movement of the nunchuck has an effect on the game, for example in Wii Sports boxing, the nunchuck becomes your left hand enabling you to capture the correct 2 punching technique. Other uses I have found for it are for running as fast as you can in the excellent Rayman where you need to get your arms pumping as you would in a sprinting race, also, in the same game a quick flick on the nunchuck would reload the ammunition in your gun.

--Verdict--

I am a little bit wary of the cable between the nunchuck and the Wii remote as it is not the longest and if you get carried away in an event where you need to be throwing both hands in different directions there is potential for the cable to either be disconnected or, even worse, to snap. This was a flaw with earlier nunchucks but I believe Nintendo have now addressed the problem. The Nunchuck is great addition to the gaming experience and if you have more than one Wii remote, I would recommend getting an additional nunchuck for each of these remotes.



4 out of 5 stars Well worth the money   April 14, 2010

Much cheaper than the official device and seems to work a treat. Yes the packaging was as described by another reviewer (device comes by itself in a jiffy bag no packing at all) but that caused no issues at all. Speedily delivered no complaints

I don't mind cheap Chinese copies if they are advertised as such. This was advertised as a genuine item from Nintendo which it clearly was not. If the Amazon market place is going to turn into another Ebay where the sellers cannot be trusted then I will be looking elsewhere for my future purchases.

E. Bradwell (north east UK)
excellent product worked straight out of the box/bag.was a bit concerned that it would not be in the original packaging but assured it was a fully compliant piece of kit. No problems with this article at all fully functioning with games as expected.
