Advantages: Good Features. Well Made Disadvantages: A little expensive
As mentioned in my review of the Wii Nunchuck I have had my Wii for a few weeks but haven?t had chance to review it so am starting with the peripherals.
The Wii uses wireless controllers (it was the first games console to do this) that communicate with the main console via bluetooth. Unfortunately the Wii only comes with a single controller and as the main fun with the Wii comes from playing against friends and family I immediately purchased a second controller for £29.99 (it is hard to find them cheap anywhere on line or the high street).
The controller is white plastic (the same as the Wii itself) styled like a small TV remote and is solidly made and feels even more so when the 2 AA batteries are put in. The remote which has a wrist strap (to prevent it flying from your hand and smashing your TV or other fragile items when you ...
Advantages: Great product, allows for playability Disadvantages: None

There is also an A button which is the main button for most of the commands you make. Underneath the Wii remote is the B button which is shaped like a trigger button and is used quite a lot with target and shooting games.

Advantages: Innovation, Responsiveness Disadvantages: Price, Ease Of Use
I purchased the Nintendo Wii after weeks of searching the internet for a shop that hadnt sold out and once i found one available i bought it immediately.

I also have had this problem with my xbox 360 wireless controllers and would recommend anybody who was buying the controllers to also consider a quick charge kit to accompany it.
The unit is very responsive and works very well, this depends on where you put the sensor that is supplied with the wii so make sure that you read the manual carefully ...
