Controller Description:

Connect the Nunchuk controller to the Wii Remote and get ready. You've just begun a journey into the most immersive, heated gameplay experience ever offered. This combo offers the utmost precision. They're your sword and shield to defend Hyrule in The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. They're your weapons to blast your way through the harried world of Metroid Prime 3: Corruption and the gritty underworld of Red Steel. The Nunchuk controller and the accelerometer contained within it are the next leap in gaming. In first-person shooters, the 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 Nunchuk controller while you look for an open receiver to throw to using the Wii Remote.

Still need a star wars game and I'll be happy. Wasn't much of a star wars fan, but I wanna feel the rumble and hear the "whroaw" from its speaker as you whizz it through the air.

And yes, best thing that could have happened to gaming however they couldn've put two buttons where the A is.

Yeah i've noticed this. I think the further you are from the sensor the more jumpy it gets.

I need to replace my 2nd Wiimote

I had some cheap batteries in it because its all i had laying around. So the batteries have leaked and it looks like that battery acid has leaked down where the little hole is near the negative contact and has corroded part of the circuit bored. Now i cant get it to work at all.

i agree with reynaldo, it's pretty hard to let it swing out of your hands, only if you go crazy...

the wiimote looks bigger in pictures than it did in real life, when i first got my wii i thought...
holy...its so small, i think i bought the wrong size batteries (AA)

Dante_10 said: some people swing the wii mote to hard and thats why the strap breaks so i reckon mabe they should go a tiny winy bit softer ?



Shouldn't matter how hard you swing the remote as you shouldn't be relying on the strap to hold the Wiimote in your hand.

Last time I checked I used my fingers to hold onto something and if I didn't want to let it go I made sure I held on tightly.

I think the problem is some people are dumb and think that their remote is actually a bowling ball, baseball ect ect.

Or they pretend its a raquet and go L.Hewitt styles and chucking a fit after they lose a break point.

elgoonties says:  

Lol. Yeh its a bit like the old iPod hey. Damn white... *Racist* Nah sol good.
So, with the Wiimote coming with the nintendo wii package, does this include a nunchuck? Or do you need to purchase this seperately. Cuz I have my wii pre-ordered as well as Zelda, however that game uses the nunchuck. Do i need to go out and buy the nunchuck as well? Or is it included with the Wii package?

whisk says:  

Well now that I have two I can say I am pleased. Most people can pick it up and control it instantly. The batteries last a long time, and the crappy speaker (turn it down for better quality) can be entertaining at times. Only thing im worried about is keeping it clean with all that white.

rage said: any one know if ur gunna be able to get a rechargeable battery pack, like the 360 has? or its just gunna be aa/aaa which ever it takes?



I'm pretty sure they run off AA (or is it AAA?) batteries, ala Xbox 360 controller. They could release a rechargable battery pack in the future just like the Xbox 360 controller though, aynythings possible



Just buy ordinary recharchables this seems the go.... i mean with a normal tv remote batteries last ages but your not really constantly using them ... i guess the batteries will be running constantly with the remote and the nunchuck to i suppose

I wont buy the launch version of any nintendo hand held any more. Nintendo have only ever made one console remake (NES toploader) but all bets are off this time round. Personally i think pre-ordering the wii is like diving into a pool without checking there was water in it.

Dr_Bungle says:  

Is really not that inferior I mean it looks better and has a brighter screen big woop just play in a dark room were no one can see the hidiouse thing. I only ever play my ds anymore when I can't sleep at night and i play in the dark so really to me there is no difference between the 2 models.
P.S. this is really off topic

Well I guess that's your fault for waiting so long to decide to buy a DS. I got mine a week after it came out and I still play it inferior model or not.



So now your stuck with the crappy one... whilst people who wait get a better one.... this is a big message to wait for a better wii whilst you get lugged down with the 'inferior one'

MelStorm said: WTF do you mean second time around I dont really fancy paying 400 then doing it all over again. Nintendo has become a fan of pumping crap into the market then re-releasing a better second product. This really burns me up.



I didnt get to finish off wat i was saying before and that is those glitches where made when the first prototype of the Wii which Nintendo showed at E3. I dont see why you should be pissed off when all the they did was improve their products and not release unfinished products. As for an example, they made the DS lite much lighter then the previous version only to improve their quality and standards.

What kind of problems have they got in mind ? Will they be available in time for launch date ? You make an excellent point with the remote but I must rebut I in fact would probably be buying another controller if the one I had did have problems. I dunno maybe thats just me.



It shouldn't be a big worry as its been playing as the unfinished product and running on Wii development hardware. Plus, these are first generation Wii efforts and the glitches are likely to be smoothened completely by the second time around.

It's somthing ridiculously miniscule like 16kb though... and I doubt it'd be used for your settings, either. It's probably so you can transfer your profile or Mii thingy to other Wii's.

The size is an important factor in itself. Although it seems small, this allows for far better handling during game play. Could you imagine hurling a huge controller around whilst playing a game that largely requires heavy use of this revolutionary control? However, good criticism ''nbo.''
