I've never understood the obsession with rumble; I never bought a rumble pack for N64. I'm doing something on the screen and WHOA! my controller just rumbled! It's like I'm actually there!
...So the entire world of tactile feedback consists of mere vibrations? Am I the only one who thinks this was and is a poorly fleshed-out idea? Isn't anyone out there planning on improving on this feature instead of just reiterating it ad infinitum?

Sorry, tangent there. Go low prices! No bad products!

Hmm It was about Time we got a 3rd Party WiiMote. Since we already had 3rd party Zappers, nunchucks, and Classic Controllers.

I Like the way the Wand looks. I'm deffiently going to get one of these. Looks better than the WiiMote and looks twice as comfortable.

@nightwheel: Considering the behavior of the accelerometers on 1st party remotes, the prospect of taking it 3rd party is frightening. I'll be shivering in the fetal position in the corner if anyone needs me.

May have to get a full set of Nykos peripherals... They are improving on Nintendos design in ways I always pointed out, so they have a preety good shot at my money.

@Shiryu: What is the actual utility of this? I ask cause I'm probably missing something obvious, just seems like a cool feature no games actually support?

I know if anybody would know the answer it would be you, wise Master of the Wii :)
