Product Description:
To make gaming as accessible to people of all ages and all abilities, Nintendo wanted to create a controller that was as inviting as it was sophisticated. The outcome is the Wii Remote controller. Nintendo fused the familiarity of a remote control with the sophistication of motion-sensing technology to come up with an input device for the ages!Sporting the size of a traditional remote control, the wireless Wii Remote controller is a multifunctional device that is limited only by the game designer's imagination. In a tennis game, it serves as your racket you swing with your arm. In a driving game, it serves as your steering wheel. For first-person shooters, the remote acts as your weapon that you point at an enemy. The list of potential uses goes on and on.Using Bluetooth technology, the wireless Wii Remote controller sends your actions to the Wii console from as far as 30 feet away. As a pointing device, the controller can send a signal from as far as 15 feet away. Up to four Wii Remote Controllers can be connected at once, making for some great multiplayer fun!
Amazon.com Product Description:
To make gaming as accessible to people of all ages and all abilities, Nintendo wanted to create a controller that was as inviting as it was sophisticated- the result is the Wii Remote. Nintendo fused the global familiarity of a remote control with the sophistication of motion-sensing technology to come up with an input device that differentiates the Wii from any other console that has come before it.
Revolutionary control
Sporting the dimensions of a small traditional remote control, the wireless Wii Remote is a multifunctional device that is limited only by the game designer's imagination. The magic of the Wii Remote's design lies within; acellerometers inside the controller body measure movement in all directions and at all speeds. In a tennis game, it serves as your racket as you swing your arm for a long forehand or a quick and hard backhand. In a 4x4 driving game it serves as a steering wheel, allowing you to swerve to avoid obstacles or pickup power-ups. In first-person shooters, the Wii Remote acts as a firearm that you can point directly at an on-screen enemy. The list of potential uses is enormous, and the light weight of the Wii Remote allows gamers to play for hours without feeling fatigued.

As comfortable as it is functional
The Wii Remote is equally comfortable in right and left hands and houses just the right number of buttons for gaming- not so many that new players will get confused, but enough so that Wii games don't feel constrained. On the face of the remote are the D (or "plus") pad, a large "A" button which is used for major on-screen actions, and two small options buttons. Between the game buttons are a plus and minus buttons (which often act as "forwards" and "back"), as well as a "Home" button to engage the Wii home screen to change settings or check remote battery levels. On the back side of the controller is a trigger-like "B" button, perfect for timing releases of a bowling roll in Wii Sports.
Thankfully, battery life is excellent with the two included AA batteries, just as with the previous generation of Nintendo wireless controllers.
Immersive intelligence
Along the bottom of the Wii Remote, four blue LED lights indicate which player position the remote is currently set to. The controller automatically connects to the Wii console via Bluetooth wireless technology. Below the LEDs, an expansion port lets you connect a number of devices including the Nunchuck and Classic controllers for Virtual Console gaming (Virtual Console games and controller accessories sold separately). Other features of the Wii Remote include adjustable rumble force-feedback and a reinforced wrist strap to ensure safe use. A speaker inside the remote gives the player feedback about the strength of swings or the accuracy of their moves- such as realistic tennis noises as the "racket" connects with the ball in Wii Sports. Overall, the physical design of the remote is extremely sturdy and of very high quality, ensuring countless hours of Wii gaming fun!

I ordered this, and thankfully the vendor that I ordered it from shipped it to me much faster than amazon said they would. The remote showed up in a simple plastic bag and no protective cover. I was expecting (as from the picture) that it would come with the rubber protective cover. So I dropped one star from this product for not being true to how it was advertised. The remote itself is a real nintendo remote and connected just fine and works great with my WII. However due to the lack of a protective ... Read More

I believe I read some reviews saying these weren't authentic wii remotes, but they ARE and they work great ( exact packaging everything as the orginal, and we didn't forget because we got the wii plus extra remotes within a couple weeks of each other), just like our other two. I feel we got a great deal as we had to pay no tax or shipping which saved from buying from a store, which were OUT of the remotes. We recieved them in a timely manner. Nothing to complain about here!

I purchased my Wii about 6 weeks ago and I love it. I have used it everyday since purchase. It makes my workout more like fun and not work. I recommend this type of workout for everybody.

I purchased two new wii remotes directly from amazon.com. Buying directly from them, I just assumed I would get quality Nintendo wiimotes like the two I already have. I have a third party charging station with battery packs, so the first thing I did was grab a battery pack and stick it in one of the wiimotes. Doesn't work at all. Not even a light or a blink. Thinking my battery pack was dead, I put it in my older wiimote, and it started right up. Strike one against new wiimote.
So I ... Read More

My experience with fridayplay (fridayplay I beilevee is the name of this seller). I bought 3 remote controllers. One of them was not working and still not working. I tried to contact the seller after I contacted a Nitendo technician who concluded that the remote was defective and inoperable. I never got a response from them up until now despite their claim of working with buyers to solve the issue or even refunding me the full amount paid for the defective controller. I submitted a complaint to Amazon ... Read More
