Pros: Nice replacement for official wiimote
Sensors works like the official one
Comes with silicone protector
Hard case, after many crashes it works like the first day
Really nice price

Cons: Buttons are not exactly like the real ones
Comes without readeable instructions
The wiimote connector male isnt as hard as the real one
The packaging comes with broken corners

Other Thoughts:

Bottomline: Buy this if u need an extra controller for friends to play on your wii, i think it will crash on everyday use, but work like a charm after 15 days of use.

Pros: It works fantastically! Setting it up and everything was perfect and it includes the silicon case for the wii. It looks exactly like the original and is well worth the price for this amazing piece of technology.

Cons: None whatsoever. So far, after more than a year now, everything is still working as perfect as it was brand new.

Other Thoughts: I use this with my Computer with glovepie for gaming and it works great

Bottomline: Buy this if you need a cheap replacement wii remote and nunchuk. The quality is sturdy to me and I would definitely recommend it to anyone.

Pros: 1.Looks just like the real Nintendo ones, even has "Nintendo" & "Wii" markings on them.
2.Came in "Original" looking Japanese packaging.
3.Came with the silicone jacket and wrist strap though it wasn't mentioned in the product description.
4.Most Importantly; works how its supposed to.

Cons: 1.Drains batteries much faster compared to the original wii-mote. I use the same rechargeable batteries on my original wii-mote and this one. After some gameplay using fully charged batteries; the original wii-mote shows a 2/3 battery level, this one shows a 1/3.
2. Doesn't fit into the Zapper perfectly, needs a bit of "pressing in".
3. Sometimes the wii-mote goes haywire and freezes when connecting to the nun-chuk. but disconnecting it and reconnecting it back fixes it.

Other Thoughts: 1.This wii-mote & nunchuk looks identical to the real ones, the only obvious difference is that this one is slightly lighter.
2. The volume on this wii-mote is a alot softer compared to the real one.

Bottomline: A cheaper alternative to getting the original wii-mote and nunchuk. Works perfectly fine but when compared; slightly inferior to the original. A good buy if you want to get a wii-mote & nunchuk set as a 2nd, 3rd or 4th controller handy to entertain company.

Ownership verified by DX wow! could be an original!

Pros: The wii remote is indistinguishable from our original. There is no difference in appearance, functionality or the feel when depressing buttons etc.
Included silicon skin and wrist strap, which I wasn't expecting.
The price is less than half what I'd be paying in the shops.
Delivery was really fast. The kids were rapt as they're on school holidays!

Cons: The nunchuck is not as good quality as the remote. It feels lighter and the joystick feels a bit loose. Looks almost the same, but as soon as you pick it up, it's obvious that it's a cheaper version. Still works fine though. The nunchuck didn't include a silicone skin, but then again, the skin for the remote was a bonus!

Other Thoughts:

Bottomline: Despite, the poorer quality nunchuck, I'd definitely recommend this product because the remote is so like the original. The nunchucks are pretty cheap to replace if it doesn't last too long.
