5 out of 5 stars A must have!   July 6, 2008
Although there are games where you don't require the Nunchuck it is always handy to have one or your gameplay will be limited. Easy to add on to your controller and allows you to play a whole range of games.


5 out of 5 stars needed for some games.Some notes about nunchuks   October 25, 2007
 27 out of 29 found this review helpful

A nunckuk is a simple atachment to the Wii remote that gives you extra control over a game.So far 4 out of 6 of my games need it.If it has a nunchuk icon in the top-right corner of the box it needs it for all or part of the game.You get one free with the console,but you can get another for multiplayer. Here are some notes:
1.The control stick has a special feature:you can move it a little bit and it does the action a little bit,like a steering wheel!
2.The upper button is called "c" and the lower button is called "z" so if you see c and z mentioned in reviews you`ll know what they`re talking about. Don`t get them the wrong way round!
3.It fits in your hand perfectly-no need to worry about it being uncomfortable.
4.Don`t put the control stick in your mouth (if you do it goes all yellow).
5.The cord length is fine(almost the armspan of a quite tall 9-year-old).

So overall the nunchuk wins 5 stars for its special control stick feature; fitting into your hand nicely; and its cord length, and only has 1 bad point which is being just plain white and even this is hardly a "bad" point because you never look at the nunchuk when you`re playing and even this can be fixed by buying a skincase for it.



2 out of 5 stars Over priced and under whelming - a missed opportunity   October 9, 2007

The nun-chuck does the job you want it for: controlling Wii games that need it like Wii Sports Boxing, FPS games like Metroid, Call of Duty, Medal of Honor etc, and a few others. You know this because you got one bundled with your Wii and you only want to buy another one so you can play these games against a friend. So go ahead and buy one.

But never being one to miss the opportunity to have a moan I thought I'd climb on my soap box and point out it's faults. Go on, read my rant before you click the `unhelpful button'.

The nun-chuck is over priced at 15. Infact Wii owners shouldn't have to pay for it at all. The Wii Remote is half a controller without this. It's a rip that you have to pay out 45 for 2 bits of kit just to get an extra player. This gives Wii the most expensive console controllers ever, which is just silly.
Price aside, the nun-chuck ain't that great. It feels to light for one thing, and what's with the wire and the lack of rumbles? A wireless rumbling Wii nun-chuck might be worth 15, but not this bland piece of plastic.

The nun-chuck is a reliable controller but it could be a lot better, and cheaper. Do buy one, but don't forget to do so begrudgingly ;-)

Oh and parents, make sure your kid actually wants to play games that require an extra nun-chuck before you buy. If all they want is multi player Tennis this won't be necessary.

This is a brilliant assesory/add on, and it is a must have to play most games.


5 out of 5 stars Nunchuck and remote   September 7, 2007
 5 out of 5 found this review helpful

Great attachment, jsut a shame it doesn't have an infrared sensor so that it could be used as an extra gun arm, but otherwise very good. And for all the people whinging that it is too expensive, this is because the majority of th Wii's technology is inside the controller, it costs a lot more to make a motion sensing controller that also has bluetooth and a partial memory to store your extra data, i think it is pretty good value
