Wii Remote Controller - Blue

This is the Wii Remote that Nintendo Wii should have made in the first place! Anyway, let me tell you all about the Wii Remote Plus, or WRP for short. The WRP has the Wii Motion Plus accessory already built inside of it and it is the same size and weight as the standard Nintendo Wii Remote when the standard Nintendo Wii Remote does not have the Wii Motion Plus equipped onto it. You have to remember that equipping and unequipping the Wii Motion Plus accessories just to play a game makes it where you don't want to play the game anymore. Well, here it is my friends! The WRP! I purchased it and immediately tried it with my "Wii Sports Resort" game. Absolutely no problem! It works! It is not bulky or heavy! Now, here is what is in the box. You get one Wii Remote Plus (WRP). 2 Panasonic brand AA batteries. One plastic outer case for the WRP to go into (it is the same material used for the standard Wii Remote. Maybe it is silicone?) One instruction manual. HOWEVER, the instruction manual for the WRP does not tell you how to SYNC your new remote to your Nintendo Wii console, so if you do not have your old instruction booklet, I am going to do you a huge favor and type down the steps from mine. Please note that you do not need a working Wii Remote to start up your new remote. Remember, I typed these steps out of my Nintendo Wii Operations Manual System Setup booklet Step 1. Press the Power button on the Nintendo Wii console to turn it on. Step 2. Remove the battery cover on the back of the remote (with the batteries inside of it). Press and release the SYNC button (a little red button) inside the cover. The player LEDs will blink. Step 3. Open the SD card slot on the front of the Nintendo Wii console. Press and release the SYNC button (a square red button) on the inside of the compartment. Step 4. When the player LED blinking stops, connection is complete! The LED that is illuminated indicates the player number. NOTE: This procedure must be followed for each additional Wii Remote or Wii Remote Plus added to your system. Now, please note that you do not get a nunchuk with your purchase. The nunchuk is sold seperately and the nunchuk is needed with many of the games made by Wii. One last note, the Wii Remote Plus has the Official Nintendo Seal on the box. That means that it is not made by a third party. It is made by Nintendo for Nintendo. I do not know about you, but for my Ninendo Wii, I look for the Nintendo Seal. I once purchased a fishing pole for the Wii and it did not have the Nintendo Seal. The Fishing Pole did not work and I had to return it to Amazon.com. It was a nightmare, so I wanted to include this. Well, This remote is worth the extra $5 since I do expect Nintendo to make more games that will require the Wii Motion accessory and unless you want to plug and unplug the accessory to a standard remote just to save $5.00, purchase this remote. Have fun playing "Wii Sports Resort" and I hope you get a high score! Remember, do not stop until you make to pro status because you can do it!

Deciding it was time to donate my old wiimotes and the wiimote plus attachments and upgrade to the remotes that have the remote plus BUILT-IN, I decided to also do so with style. Although these come in 3 colors: black, blue, and hot pink, I opted for the colorful blue and pink wiimotes. (one set of blue, one of pink) If you have a family of 4 and get a white pair as well, everyone would have their own color and there is no argument over who didn't charge the remote during the last use or who left one at a friend's house, donthaknow. And that's where the convenience of these boils down to simply more than style. Because so many utilize the wii games and wii party games at gatherings, like a wine glass that all looks the same and needs a "wine charm" on the stem to differentiate picking up or (in the case of the wii) going home with someone elses...especially considering these cost more because they have the remote plus built IN that makes all movements picked up better by the wii....well, yours finally stands out in a crowd of white wiimotes and old school well-used wiimotes without the wiiplus. They come with the plastic cover on them and of course have the opening at the bottom for the nunchuck. The blue is Tiffany blue and the pink is hot pink...more so than it looks like on the photo. They work great and pick up every movement far better than the old remotes. Especially useful in action games and workout games. Plus the colored versions are only a few bucks more and are stylin'.

My 20-yr-old daughter & her friends got to test out our two newer Wii Remote Plus remotes. (Blue & Pink, we already had the White & Black ones.) First one was using our older Black controller in a Kirby game. My 2-yr-old granddaughter picked up the Pink one and ended up activating it in the game...so I handed that off to one of the college kids. Then she was attracted by the Blue one, activated that one too...handed that off to her aunt to play Kirby. (Auntie took out a battery from the White one so it wouldn't activate a 4th player in the game.) The controls & buttons worked well on both new remotes. There were parts during play that the remote had to be shaken madly, so the "Plus" portion of the controller worked great! (Fun part was watching the 2-yr-old copy the older kids by shaking her White remote as she "played" the game with them.) This was my 2nd Wii Remote Plus - Pink . My 1st one was purchased on Amazon from an Amazon merchant. (Game Direct, now selling as GryoTek...DO NOT buy from them!) I sent that one back for a refund right away. (Ordered Fri, received Sat and filled out return form the same day) It was a very good copy. The A button felt "cheap" and it along with the cushy jacket were yellowed. The word "Pink" on the box was misspelled as "Bink". There were no batteries even tho' the box stated 2 AA batteries included, among other things. (pictures under the Pink remote posting) I ordered a 2nd Pink controller from Amazon right away on Sat, received it Mon and was able to make side by side comparisons before UPS picked up my return. My authentic remotes work wonderfully! Happy with all 4 of them. And it's kind of fun having one of each color so people know which controller is theirs.

this is exactly what I needed to play most of the wii games I want to play.

Nuevo, en su caja cerrada y a mejor precio que en tiendas. Todos los controles originales Nintendo incluyen funda. Y baterías.

J ai redécouvert les jeux sur wii et j adore ! Merci pour cette superbe manette bleue et livraison soigné et rapide merci

We would recommend this. It works well with all our games, holds the connection no problem and is easy to use. The three year old can use it no problem! Only problem is the children all want to use this blue remote rather than our white ones.

un telecomando originale a questo prezzo è assolutamente imbattibile. Sicuramente l'eccentrico colore rosa ha contribuito a rendere basso il prezzo ma questa la vedo una cosa assolutamente marginale (per di più che lo usa la mia ragazza). Il telecomando funziona alla grande come era logico aspettarsi da un controller originale. Essendo di ultima generazione include al suo interno la componente motion plus, se si ha una versione vecchia del firmware si possono avere alcuni problemi navigando applicazioni come l'homebrew channel (problema aggirato utilizzando questo come controller secondario) ma questa è una cosa legata a tutti i controller di ultima fabbricazione.

When our original wii remote broke, I decided to go for this "upgraded" version. To be completely honest, I cant really tell the difference between the other original controller and this one. I would say that unless you are really into gaming, or this is reduced to a similar price to the originals, I would just stick with the much cheaper original. We use this controller with the Aircharge Inductive Charger by Madcatz and it works great. It was purchased in December 2011 and after a year of reasonable use, it still works as well as it did on day one.
