    "Fathers" day present...

    Hmmm.... Well I can tell you this. I was given this as a fathers day present. When I have the time to play the Wii U with my family, I like this controller. It is well built and very comfortable. I have increased my victories on games like Super Smash Bros and Pokken tournament. It should be noted though that I have very limited time to play Wii U and I have watched "others" in my household enjoying this controller tremendously. Maybe I am a conspiracy theorist, but I am thinking this was a "Fathers" day gift for EVERYONE... :)

    Seems well built, buttons and joystick controls have a good feel to them when being used. Battery lasts a long time between charges.

    This WiiU wireless controller has more functionality / can play some games that the traditional nunchuck combo cannot / is well-made.

    Great controller. Feels solid and well built. Excellent battery life. Nice to have another controller option when you don't want to use the Gamepad.

    Bought this because playing smash and isaac would feel more comfortable and natural with a "normal" controller. Not disappointed. Easy to synch, no wires necessary, doesn't feel odd in your hands, although it is a little steep pricewise.

    Well it's been a month and the kids have used and abused it. So far it's held up and kids like the design. And I mean it's held up to my three year old son dropping it on an regular basis as he pretend plays with his older brothers.

    Great product. Works as expected. My only complaint is that if connecting the charging cable to the console as directed, the console needs to be on to charge the controller. Not a big deal for me since it is my secondary controller.

    As an old gamer from the days of Pong and then Space Invaders, it took me a long time to get used to the "wing" controller. Then came the Wii controller...still not used to that. This controller takes me back to comfortable game play.

    Much Better Than The Wii-Mote...

    I bought this so my son and I could play Minecraft and Mario-Kart together, without my having to use the Wii-Motes that are much too small for my giant paws. We've had it for a couple of years now and it has stood the test of time and abuse, especially with my children. the sticks don't stick and the buttons all work as well as the day we purchased it. I especially like that I can charge it using my USB hub (goodbye batteries). I prefer it over all the other controllers.

    I prefer to use this controller on the games that allow it over the wii U's regular controller. Especially with Smash Bros. Better feel and the position is just more in line with the controllers of the other systens I own as well.

    Don't bother trying to save money with the generics. This controller is much more durable and all around a better feel. I would recommend it for sure. My children actually prefer these ones over the game pad and Wii remotes.

    Very nice alternative to using the Wiimote. Controller feels nice to hold. Button layout is okay. Feels a bit on the lighter side in my honest opinion, which makes it feel a little bit on the flimsy/cheap side. I feel like if it falls on the ground that it could crack or break apart. But overall, it's a good controller. I find myself using it a lot more than the Wii Gamepad or a Wiimote.
