Nintendo created a Wii Remote controller, a controller that is as inviting as it is sophisticated. Nintendo fused the familiarity of a remote control with the sophistication of motion-sensing technology to come up with an input device for the ages!

Sporting the size of a traditional remote control the wireless Wii Remote controller is a multi-functional device that is limited only by the game designer's imagination. In a tennis game it serves as your racket you swing with your arm. In a driving game it serves as your steering wheel. For first-person shooters the remote acts as your weapon that you point at an enemy. The list of potential uses goes on and on.

Using Bluetooth technology the wireless Wii Remote controller sends your actions to the Wii console from as far as 30 feet away. As a pointing device the controller can send a signal from as far as 15 feet away. Up to four Wii Remote Controllers can be connected at once making for some great multiplayer fun! In addition to its pointing and motion-sensing abilities the Wii Remote controller also includes a speaker rumble feature and expansion port for additional input devices such as the Nunchuk controller.
