Nyko reveals Wireless Nunchuk

[bandit]

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.

In terms of gameplay, the Wireless Nunchuck should function just like the first-party option, as Nyko looks to be remaining true to Nintendo's general layout and button locations. Pricing and final release information will be announced at CES, so until then, enjoy these exclusive first pictures and start looking forward to even greater freedom in Wii gameplay.

Ahh, why didn't Nintendo do this? And why didn't they do it in the first place. I don't like using third party hardware, so I need Nintendo to make wireless nunchuks (and of course compensate me for the four non-wireless nunchuks I already own). It pisses me off that no console manufacturer ever does it right the first time.

Thats what rechargeables are for. It would be cool if we could use the Charge Station with this.
