Nunchuk and Pistol for Nyko's Wand

Nyko, popular makers of 3rd party accessories have been busy again. This time they're bringing out some addons for their existing version of the Wii remote, known as the Wand.

The first is a wired Nunchuk with a difference, in that it actually vibrates for your gaming pleasure.

Secondly there's a gun attachment known as the Pistol Grip. This isn't like other gun shells available on the market however, since A and B button presses are replicated digitally. This means it doesn't rely on clumsy mechanics and won't suffer any delay times.

Unfortunately the Wand itself looks like this:

  • Individual Wand: $34.99. Available in April.
  • Wand + Nunchuk: $49.99. Available in June.
  • Wand + Pistol Grip: $49.99. Available in June.

Nyko's Chris Arbogast had the following to say:

"The Wand opens up a myriad of new features and accessories for us to improve how consumers experience games on Nintendo Wii. Recognized as the Best of CES 2009 in the Gaming category, the Wand will ship as a stand alone unit and in both the Action Pak and Core Pak so users can customize their gaming experience. We are pleased to reveal these two new Wand-compatible accessories and look forward to innovating new ways of using Trans-Port technology in future".

The Wand and its addons will be available to buy from stores like Amazon.

A vibrating nunchuck could mess up the gameplay if you're playing a game that uses motion controls for both wiimote and nunchuck. But everything else is okay.
