 DONT BUY THE NON OFFICIAL WII REMOTES THEY ARE GARBAGE May 11, 2010
By Miriam L. Alan
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.

 UPDATE on my original review! Mar 27, 2011
By Kathy Bailey
I originally wrote a review about how disappointed I was with this product because I couldn't get it to work. New Harbor read my review and contacted me about it. They REALLY worked with me to help me get the remotes synced with my Wii. I'm not a very tech - oriented person but New Harbor staff stuck with me and now my remotes work great! New Harbor gets thumbs up for an affordable product AND for Great customer service

 I actually dont have much to complain about May 28, 2010
By Stefan Kenehan Letizia
I have had much bad luck with 3rd party gamecube controllers in the past, but this wiimote is surprisingly reliable. The only differences in quality that i can notice is the nunchuck cord, which is a little more rigid, and the built in microphone sounds a bit more... grainy. I have not had any tracking problems with the 'mote, and the product has yet to break, despite being dropped a few times. I suppose you get what you pay for, and if you just want a second controller to make your friends use but you dont want to pay a lot, I recommend this one.

Basic But Functional Apr 10, 2011
By Wink
After reading the mixed reviews here on Amazon, I was wary of ordering this controller/nunchuk bundle. However, the price is right and I really wanted to add two more friends to my system so I went ahead with the purchase.
Nowhere in the item description is there any claim that these are actual Nintendo products, and the bargain price should be a clue to anyone who thinks they are. These are definitely after-market sets, but the look/feel is very close to the original. Reviewing them poorly simply because they're "not Nintendo" is like negatively reviewing Scott Tissue because it isn't Kleenex.
We've now used them for a few hours of gaming and have experienced no problems with any of the units. They're basic, but functional. I'm glad I went ahead and got them.

off-brand wii remote and nunchuck FANTASTIC value! Mar 29, 2011
By luckymomofour
"2x2"
We have been VERY happy with this set. Before purchasing the wii nunchuck and controller bundle, I read all of the other reviews. First of all, I think it's obvious it's a knock-off, or it wouldn't be $12! Some people had trouble with some games, but we decided that for the price, it was definitely worth a try. We have not had a single issue with any game. The volume is slightly louder, but a non-issue. They work great, just as they should. We bought two sets, and have been so happy, family and friends have now ordered some as well.
