With the Wii Remote, gaming is opened up to people of all ages and abilities. The Nintendo Wii Remote mixes the familiarity of a remote control with the latest motion-sensing technology. It is often referred to as the "Wiimote" and is the primary controller for Nintendo’s Wii console.
Game designers love finding new uses for the Wii Remote. In a tennis game, it becomes a racket you swing with your arm. In a driving game, it becomes a steering wheel. The possibilities are endless!
The Nintendo Wii Remote also packs a speaker, rumble feature, and external extension connector for other input devices, like the Classic Controller.
The compact white style makes Wii a natural addition to any television setup. Lie Wii down flat or show Wii off with the console stand.
