I know you don't need them, and you can play on the Wii quite happily without them, but these are a really good set of accessories for the Wii remote.
Ignore the rubber cover, that'll never get used in our house. The Controller adaptor is great for those games that require you to turn the controller sideways and use it like an old retro style controller. It makes it easier to hold and makes you less likely to tilt it back the wrong way again accidentally. The remaining 3 accessories are great for Wii Sports and other sporting games. Make no mistake, you could not attempt to hit any real balls with these clip on attachments, but they really enhance the gameplay. The adaptor clips on easily (I read reviews of another set that claimed it was impossible to get on and off - not so with this set) and the tennis racket, baseball bat and golf club attachments simply screw onto the end of the adaptor.
It's a little disorientating at first, because your pointer icon disappears from the screen (it can't transmit through the attachment) but the wireless gameplay is not interferred with at all, and you can still navigate the screen menus by using the D Pad and Select button.
The Wii was designed to bring families together to have fun and a set of attachments like this will really help you all to have a good laugh together. Highly recommended! |
