 Great January 5, 2007

This controller add-on really adds to the realism of games such as boxing on Wii Sports. Whilst the new controls take some getting used to, and I imagine could pose difficulties for those with disabilities, I would be inclined to believe that problems would lie with controlling Zelda rather than Sports, because later aspects of the game require careful hand-eye co-ordination and absolute physical control of the controller.
I would also state from experience that both remote and nunchuck take a lot of getting used to, particularly at the beginning, and it indeed can be frustrating. If you stick with it though, it is definitely very rewarding.
I would also say that if you are wary of this controller, which is an add-on for the remote, I would suggest purchasing the standard old-style controller also available, in which case you would still be able to enjoy this console and all its games in the same way you would a PS 2 or a Gamecube.
Nunchuck - non Chuck December 31, 2006

I find it hard to understand why people with disabilities such as yours would consider buying a Wii console if your movement is limited, surely you read the specifications and reviews on the console before you considered buying it,would you have bought one if you we're blind? I understand that console manufacturers should make their products more useable for everybody, but have you also considered that a disability is just that, not able to do things more able bodied people take for granted.. I wager you have not complained to your local bowling alley manager about the fact you cant bowl because of your disability. If we go down the route of catering for everybody would the majority not be disabled by the fact that we all have to be limited by only having things everybody can do. should we just restrict everything to a level everybody can achieve, or should we accept there are things not everybody can do?

The nunchuck, along with the Wii-mote are a revolution. As many of you will know during development, the project title was "Project Revolution". and it has delivered. The nunchuck also features tilt sensors and gives an almost 3d element to each game that requires one. Zelda, for example, is such a natural and fluid game to play due to the length of the connecting wire and games like Rayman would not survive without the nunchuck.
As for the disabled vote, it should be N/A. Ninendo have designed this console to bring enjoyment to the majority, unfortunately the disabled are a large minority and may have been neglected during the production of this console however it is just not feasable for Nintendo to be downgrading their console for the minority. And in this instance you should not be elligable to vote, it is the equivalent of a blind person reviewing game graphics.

Whilst i understand and sympathize with your disability, the controllers are still fantastic pieces of technology. I hope that Nintendo will cater towards players with disabilities.
For those fortunate enough not to have any disability, this console will rock your world.
The Best Analog Controller ever? December 29, 2006
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I've used the analogue controllers on the N64, Gamecube, Dreamcast, PS2 and X-Box, but none beat this for sensitivity and controllability.
The PS2 controller is pretty much on-off - more digital than analogue. The others are quite good, but this is better.
Add in the accelerometer feature (you can shake the controller in any direction) and it just gets better.
It's also comfortable in use, though it could do with being a bit thicker. Once you have used the combination of wand and nun-chuck, all other controllers seem to be cramped and nearly unusable. The only problem is availability.
