RUMOR: Nintendo's wireless Nunchuk already in development? |
Listed in: Wii Tags: Nunchuk, Wiimote

Yeah, you read the title right. A supposed wireless Nunchuk is in the works. Some sources have reported that this was brought about by complaints of how the dangling wire that links the two controllers becomes a distraction especially in games that call for wide movements.This makes absolute sense, don't you say so? If you think about it, Nintendo's got all the reason to make these controllers wireless. It's going to be all for the gamer's benefit to have free movement while playing the Wii.
It's speculated that this new wireless connectivity would have an adapter plugged into the wiimote to receive signals from the Nunchuk.
However, a Nunchuk won't look like the actual martial arts weapon it was named after without the "link" that connects both ends. Introducing a wireless Nunchuk should call for a name-change in the controller's product line, in that case.
As of now, there's no official word from Nintendo, but you can bet your bottom dollar that we'll keep you guys updated on this not-so-surprising-yet-widely-appealing rumor.

Either way, I won't be purchasing a Wii until the fallowing happens:
1. Bigger gaming (and Virtual Console) Library
2. Wireless Wiimote/nunchuck
3. Rechargeable controllers (what's with the batteries? If Nintendo got rid of batteries since the GBA SP, why bring them back?) with dock station.
4. Controller skin replaced with Nerf material (for better grip since I sorta get sweaty palms)
5. Even Stronger Wrist Straps.
#1 just takes a matter of time.
#2 rumor for now, but you know it will happen (maybe by a third party company like Pelican)
#3. Same as #2.
#4. Last I heard, it's been already in the works
#5. Already has been manufactured.
