The Kama Wireless Nunchuk provides all the same abilities and features of the wired version, but with no cables tethered to the Nintendo Wii remote.
They were a little pricey at $35.00 USD each compared to the wired Nintendo version for $19.95 UThe Kama Wireless Nunchuck is compatible with all Nintendo Wii software that utilizes the Nunchuk attachment and requires no additional software or modification of the Nintendo Wii hardware to work, simply plug and play. The lightweight and compact dongle attaches to the bottom of the remote and provides a wireless range of up to 3 meters.
Two AAA batteries, which Kama includes for free, provide up to 30 hours of game play for extended gameplay sessions, however I recommend getting some rechargeable batteries to save you in the long run.
The Kama Wireless Nunchuck is the ideal solution for users demanding more flexibility and freedom while playing their favorite Nintendo Wii games.
Here are some of the features:
• No restrictive wires for complete freedom while gaming
• Compatible with all games that require the Nunchuk
• Full accelerometer support for motion based gameplay
• Ergonomic design fits comfortably in either left or right hand
• Two AAA batteries (included) provide up to 30 hours of gameplay
• Included wrist strap keeps the Kama safely secured during gameplay
Here’s the catch… a few weeks ago Nintendo decided that the Kama is too similar to the official Nunchuk, and so infringes their copyrights.
To quote Bloomberg’s original report:
The Nyko product “wholly appropriates the novel shape, design, overall appearance and even the color and materials used in the Nintendo Nunchuk controller,” Nintendo said in the federal court complaint, filed June 10 in Seattle.
If you have the means, I highly recommend you pick up a couple of these beauties before Nintendo or the courts decide they need to be pulled from gaming store shelves… that is if they haven’t already.
Just imagine how much these controllers will be fetching on sites like eBay and Amazon.com? It will be like trying to find a Wii fit or Wii… you’ll pay top dollar for sure!
SD but they are so much nicer.
