Product Description
Contoured to perfectly fit a player's hand, the Nunchuk controller goes an extra step to meet the needs of gamers. It features the same motion-sensing technology enabled in the Wii Remote controller, with an analog stick to assist in character movement. Use it to move your characters and have them perform all kinds of specific actions -- whether it's throwing a pass in football or aiming a ranged weapon in an action game. The ambidextrous nature of the Wii controllers grants accessibility seldom seen in game controllers.Amazon.com
The Wii Nunchuk controller is a secondary controller that adds even more innovation to the next generation of gaming, and does it all with less physical movement.
Used in conjunction with the standard Wii remote, certain games need the Nunchuk controller for additional control options. Contoured perfectly to fit a player's hand,

the Nunchuk controller builds on the simplicity of the Wii Remote controller. The Nunchuk contains the same three-axis motion sensor found in the Wii Remote, but also includes an analog stick, and two buttons to help assist in character movement.
Many games will allow you to control your character's movement with the Nunchuk in your left hand, while your right hand is free to execute the action movements with the Wii Remote. For example, the Nunchuk is particularly useful for games like Wii Boxing. You can use the Nunchuk 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 Nunchuk 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 search for an open receiver to throw to using the Wii Remote. Serious gamers may even want to use two Nunchuk controllers to gain a fierce competitive edge.
Because the Wii Remote and Nunchuk 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 Nunchuk controller grants accessibility not often seen in previous game controllers.
Also, the Nunchuk 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 Nunchuk 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 Nunchuk controllers.

The Wii tennis racket and other stuff was boring when we got it home. But my kids liked it. The camera looks ok but i have not downloaded nothing yet for my daughter. It was a gift for her and she has given up waiting for me to download her camera stuff onto pc.
Service from Amazon is ok.

The above star rating questions are
1. How much fun is this game??? WTF??? on star b/c Amazon is very generic on this one.
2. How do you rate this game overall???? Hello? This is a Nunchuck not a game. It is a game controller.
I guess it could be a game if swung around like a real nunchuck and then hit people with it, but who wants to do that?

Wii Nunchuk Controller
don’t get me wrong, i love this thing. the fealing is great and it’s sleek. but it’s a little slow when i play. for instance, i was playing the new Zelda game. it told me in order to do a spin attack, i had to shake the nunchuck. when i did it, i had to wait 1.5 seconds till link (the maIN character) actually did the spin atack. i think nintendo need to fix this problem

I did not realize that this was not a Nintendo made Nunchuck. I hate aftermarket controllers and although this one is licenced by Nintendo and looks identical, the trigger button sticks a little bit and is very slow to reset making it impossible to to push the button in rapidly. I also have an official Nintendo Nunchuck and it works much better. Avoid after market controllers, they never seem to work right.
