    Great controller for a fraction on the price of the original. The only thing I recommend is that you buy the rechargeable batteries.

    My kids needed additional controllers for the Wii to play with their friends. This was a good option and love the bright colors.

    The wii remote works great for anything that only requires pressing buttons, but for games where you are required to tilt the remote, it seems to have issues.

    Performs the same functions as "standard" remotes, but the colors add personality and are fun for the kids.

    I purchased two of these to replace our original wii remotes that we have had since 2007. I figured these should at least last a few years since the wii ones lasted almost 10! These worked great until one just stopped working after 9 months. And the other sucks batteries up like you wouldn't believe.

    I love the colors you can choose from in the store. You can choose your best color that fits you or your personality. I recommend this product because it well durable and it will last a long time. And the batteries life on it will last a good while I recommend buying Duracell because that is the best to last a long time

    The Rock Candy Controller comes in different colors which is good as both of my daughters wanted the pink controller. You can use either regular alkaline or rechargeable batteries. The alkaline batteries seem to work for a fair amount of time before needing replacement. These controllers work well for my kids they have no complaints. They are a little tricky to pair up at first but once done the first time there is no trouble. .
