Pros: Easy to hold and manipulate, Excellent vibration
Cons: Speaker crackles somewhat
This is the most fun controller I've ever used. When I first heard about it I thought the mouse pointer aspect would be clunky, but it's actually turned out to be the best part about it! I just love pointing my bow and arrow at monsters in Zelda and the clawshot is a ton of fun. The internal speaker really adds to the gameplay as it puts the weapons and items in your hand and not on the screen. For example when link puts his sword away you hear it on the remote rather than the screen. When you shoot an arrow you hear the bow string stretch in your hand.There are two aspects to this device: the mouse cursor and the accelerometer. The mouse cursor utilizes the Wii sensor bar that you place above or below your TV. The sensor bar is nothing but a series of the same IR sensors you find in a typical TV remote. The Wii remote uses these to know which way is forward and to know where the cursor should be on screen. This aspect to the Wii remote is very fluid and responsive. There

Well, I ordered one after seeing the specs listed on the page. I was excited because the currency transfer rate promised over Bluetooth was beyond anything previous cash-beamers could handle. However, this is because they're using deceptive claims to meet the promise of $37.50/minute, where the bandwidth normally only allows up to $32/minute. I didn't notice until I had looked in my USB hub and found it was filled with loonies! Those are $1 coins in Canadian currency. Worthless!
So I can only recommend this product for those who live in Canada or are willing to make repeated trips to exchange the money.

Well not really. The first description of the Product Features says "Beams money through Bluetooth up to 30 feet away"! If only this were true it would save a lot on gas because I know someone would mod it and have a Wii at work. For most of us though, we can't bring our Wii to work and are forced to play them only from the confines of our homes. When you do this, it's best to have some friends over. And if your going to drink and play... be safe and wear the safety strap, enough innocent TVs have died this year alone from PWWI (Playing Wii While Intoxicated). And while you are at it, get a few more Wii remotes like this one. No more playing with a remote covered in someone else's sweat. And if you are a big enough nerd, you can mod your computer to accept the Wii Remote commands.
