Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is a great, high quality controller for my Wii U. To be clear, it is indeed compatible with both. Here some reasons you might want to pick this up: 1. This has the Motion Plus capability built in, which a large group of Wii and Wii U games require. No need for an attachment, which makes for a smaller, more compact controller. 2. The D-Pad and back cover have a less glossy, more matte finish plastic, which provides slightly better grip - especially if you're someone who uses it without a sleeve. 3. Sync button (for pairing a controller to a specific console) is now on the outside of the controller. No more opening up the controller to sync it to a console. 4. You can use all of your sleeves and other peripherals from your other Wii controllers, as this is the same size as the original Wii remote. 5. This is a genuine Nintendo controller.

Nothing really that special about it, either you like Wii's controllers or not. I do like them. I do also like that they are in different colors now, the blue is as shown in the photos if you have your brightness normally set. Easy to pair and use, works with older model accessories (I use nunchuks from the original Wii, as well as an older game pad that plugs in like the nunchuks and they all work great). They get decent reach from the sensor bar (10-15 ft). I'd like to see it cheaper, but who can't say that about anything. I'll buy more I'm sure, since Wii U's can play up to 8.

I'm not a huge fan of the game pad, so I buy the Wii Remote Pluses for my personal use and for friends when they come over. I would strongly recommend getting enough Remote Pluses for you and your friends. Instead of just buying default ones, I started getting the ones with patterns like this Mario one. It is very useful for when people put controllers down, and then come back, so no one gets confused.

Its a great controller, i have used it a lot, dropped it & tested its limits. Still in great working condition. She fits into the steering wheel if that's your thing. My old wii's nun-chuck works on it no problem. All the buttons and the case are different colors and has the big M for Mario. It also has the wii motion plus inside (great for bowling) and the remote is not bigger. Its my favorite.

One of the great things about the Wii U is that it can play older Wii games in addition to the current Wii U titles. This controller works with both Wii and Wii U games, and is intuitive and easy to use. If you don't already have controllers for a Wii system, I recommend adding this when you purchase a Wii U.

I like seeing this pink remote tucked snugly in between my black PS3 and black Wii U console. Not sure if the Wii U remote is worth the additional money over the regular Wii remote but in the event that there are some games that require Wii U remotes only, might as well get it to avoid any incompatibilities.

I bought these remotes in every color/style The Junior High School summer campers love the game room, so we purchased a couple of WII games and the extra remotes. Now several kids can challenge each other, they have their own remote while in play, and it alleviates the fights over the remotes

I have a 4 year old that tests the limits of this remote. It can take a beating and still work flawlessly. She does not drain batteries quickly like the aftermarket ones. it has the wii motion plus inside it witch is great. it fits inside my old wheel, and my old nun-chuck works in her.

Basically the same remote as a regular Wii remote. However, It's a cool green keeping with Luigi's outfit color and if you're getting it for basically the same price as a regular remote, which I pretty much did, it's a no brainer to go with it. Besides, it's Luigi, need I say more? lol

Yeah it's cheaper refurbished from Nintendo in other colors and when sold in packs of two or more elsewhere. I just wanted a brand new one that matches with the color of my Wii U. It's a Wiimote with Motion Plus already built in. I'm sure everyone practically knows what its is by now. Oddly mine has Player 4 LED not lighting up at all. Eh, I'll solder a new one on in a few years if I feel like it. If you like Wii games this is needed, that's about it.

We love this Wii remote. It's different from the standard white or black. It works like regular remote and vibrates as well. Only downside is that we had to switch to white back for our battery pack (we have wireless battery charger pad).

Yes, the wii remote controllers are relatively expensive, but don't buy a cheap third party wii remote that sucks your batteries quickly, have lousy sounding speakers, and tend to break. Go for the real thing, and it'll last you for years!

Works with Wii and WiiU has built in motion plus. Easily pairs to the consoles. Get it with a charging system and you will always be ready for play. Kids love the customized character and makes a great gift for your Nintendo fans.

Works great on my WiiU. Nothing special, but my kids love the fact that Mario is on it. They love Mario. Seems to hold up be being dropped a lot, used as a hammer, etc. My kids can be rough on things!

Gift for grandson. Four years old and loves green and works great with the new wii u that was purchased also and he loves it. His own personal handset and is proud as can be. Enough words so bye.

This Wii U controller works good. The nunchuck & classic controller from my original Wii connect to this and work well. It's a little expensive, however. My daughter loves the color!

We needed another motion plus controller and did consider off brands. Glad we did not. We now have a set of 4 different colored ones and the kids are happy. Works as designed!

The new remote is so easy to sync with my Wii U considering you don't have to open the back up anymore. Also the motion plus is great and the price on these things is great.

Bought it for the color and that's about it. Has the same features as the black one I have with the motion plus built in. Works great and great color as well.
