Nyko has beaten Nintendo to the punch and created a wireless Wii Nunchuck. The product is set to be publicly unveiled at CES next month with the third party wireless device offering the same functions of the Official wired offering but of course without the hassle of a cord.

quote:

Today, IGN can exclusively reveal that Nyko will beat Nintendo to the punch with a wireless Nunchuck alternative. Set to make a public debut at CES next month, Nyko's Wireless Nunchuck will mirror most aspects of the first-party model but will finally cut the cord between the controllers.

Nyko's Wireless Nunchuck will employ 2.4-GHz wireless to communicate with a receiver module that jacks into the Wiimote's usual Nunchuck port. As the pictures suggest, power buttons on both the receiver and Wireless Nunchuck will turn the connection on and off.
