I tried to save a few bucks so I bought the cheapest new wii remote and nunchuck. It wasnt an official nintendo controller. IT DIDNT HAVE THE WII LOGO. Right there I should have known What a piece of junk! It loses signal with the wii every 5 mins. And with wii sports it doesnt function right with the motion plus. My kids now fight over who gets to use the real wii controller. The official nintendo made controllers are more money and now i know why…because they work

I really wanted to like this whole off-brand idea for the controllers, maybe I just got faulty equipment, but the nunchuck will not work if you use the wii motion plus. And if your more than 3 feet away from tv the remote will lose sync. The system picks up that something is plugged in, but the nunchuck is completely and utterly useless. Oh well, I would return it but the seller charges a 20% restocking fee. Now I wish I spent a few more dollars on the real genuine Nintendo made controllers.

First of all, the item description didn’t indicate that this was a knock-off model. There’s no “Wii” logo on the remote, nor does it come in a licensed Nintendo package. The overall construction of the unit is fine, but just doesn’t feel quite as solid as a Nintendo brand controller. Functionally, it works great and our family uses it only when we have 3 player games going. I wouldn’t use it as my primary controller, but for the occasional multiplayer games it works just fine and is just as accurate and responsive as the licensed version. For the price I paid, you can’t beat it but I wish the description had made it clear that it was produced by a third party.

We are so disappointed with this product. We believe we were deceived. There was no indication that what was being sent was going to be a knock-off! We noticed immediately that something was wrong when we tried to play a game (Frisbee golf) and couldn’t get the controller to respond accurately to our hand and arm motions. The original Wii controllers have precision accuracy and this one just did not handle the same. Once we established that the controller wasn’t working properly, we checked on line to see what we could find out about FAKE Wii Controllers and the world opened up. We saw all the minute differences, the strap does not have a latch, the controller doesn’t even have the Wii Logo on it (how did we not notice that right away?), the font size and colors on the buttons are different…and even upon closer look, you can see that a lot of the “safety and inspection” raised print that show code compliances on the original are completely missing from this Fake one, even the electrical connectors are slightly different… Ultimately, it’s the Performance that matters! Every person who picked up this controller at our house noticed the difference between the original and the new “FAKE” controller…it really messes you up if you are serious about your game. I wouldn’t recommend this product to any one. I can’t believe there is no clear statement alerting people that what is being sold is not a genuine Nintendo Wii product. I have contacted Amazon, and they are working on helping us get some type of resolution.

I ordered this set because it was cheaper than all the others. It was advertised as nintendo wii controller, but when I received it I was very upset. It was a generic controller. I’m sending it back to Dazzle. I would not recommend this product if you’re looking for the real thing.Remote Controller and Nunchuk Nunchuck Combo Bundle Set for Nintendo Wii
