3 Stars Good Deal
i bought 3 controllers for a very good price and i already have them!!

5 Stars Gamecube controllers at great price
These are a great price and I bought 2 for my Wii. Both arrived quickly and worked fine.

2 Stars Flimsy, Flimsy, Flimsy.
I don’t know how these third parties get away with this stuff. Barely a few days after buying this product, the z button no longer works, and the analog stick is flimsy at best. It was nice and rigid when I first got it, but it deteriorated quickly.

This item is definately not for hardcore gamers. I can’t even use this thing anymore, and i’m already on the lookout for a replacement.

5 Stars gamecube controller
the controller works perfectly. the package arrived within a few days of ordering it.

5 Stars Game Cube Controller
This is a great controller, my son’s absolute favorite (and he has many controllers & game systems). The company was great in that their price was the best I found & they shipped promptly. Great transaction!

Winter Sports 2 The Ultimate Challenge

Winter Sports 2

User Ratings and Reviews

2 Stars Disappointing
Thought this game looked fun with all of the different sporting options. Basically I was looking for something that would expand Wii Sports. This is not it. If only used with a controller the game is very boring and basic overall. I have not yet played it with a wii fit board which might transform the game, but was so turned off by the game prior to owning the wii balance board that I have yet to venture to play it again.

Give it a try with the wii board, but it is not worth the money without it.

3 Stars Winter Sports 2 – fun game
This is a fun game, but isn’t easily mastered. Difficulty understsanding what moves on the Wii Balance Board to do to make the game go smoothly.

3 Stars Nice game for use with the Balance Board
Nice game, directions on how to use it could be better, but they were fun to do with the Wii Balance Board.

2 Stars Ok game
I got this game because it was less expensive than the Shaun White game, it seemed to have different games that you could play not just snowboarding and they had it used at the store so I could try it for 7 days and if I didn’t like it I could take it back… Well I am taking it back! It is kind of confusing, the balance board capability is nice but not very intuitive and it is hard to get used to playing it. The worst part of the game is the announcers (you can turn them off but it took a bit to figure out how)they are constantly insulting you as you learn how to play and they have the same side conversation with each other about some fight one of them had with a judge or something in every single game. If you are trying to decide between this and Shaun White’s game go with Shaun White!!! I borrowed that game from a friend after getting this one and it is great because it is so intuitive and they don’t insult you! I am going to cough up the extra cash and get that game instead of this one!

4 Stars Wii game
This was a gift for a family member, age 13. He enjoys the game immensely, but currently does not own a Wii fit board and believes it will be more enjoyable once he has obtained this.

Iwata: DSi not after iPhone and PSP marketshare Written by Mabie A. on October 6, 2008 – 7:46 pm Anyone who's seen the new DSi handheld from Nintendo might have thought at one point that its features are oddly similar to Apple's iPhone and Sony's PSP. Camera: check. Music Playback: check. Online Capability: check. You may think it, but you're thinking wrong. Nintendo president Satoru Iwata says clearly enough that it's not an iPhone/PSP wannabe, because it's not after these marketshares in th

Not having a media center capability is often interpreted as a weakness in today’s console world, but it doesn’t prevent the Wii of leading the pack in terms of units sold. )

Wii Zapper with Links Crossbow Training

With the Wii Zapper, your game shooting experience is guarenteed to take on a whole other dimension. Your Wii remote and nunchuck fit snugly into the Zapper, still working as well as before, only now in a shape that, when simulating the use of a weapon such as a gun or bow, allows for a steadier hand that is much less likely to get tired. Included with the Zapper is Link’s Crossbow Training for the Wii, a clever and engaging shooting game set in the world of Twilight Princess that includes 27 different levels, several different game modes and multiplayer capability up to four people. Link’s Crossbow Training is ESRB Rated T for Teen.

4 Stars Good Controller Great Game
The zapper is a little strange as the trigger is out front rather than in back where one would find it on a rifle. Once you get used to that oddity the zapper works great. The game that comes with it “Link’s Crossbow Training” is great. I loved this game the only problem is it was a bit short. The game developers really should make some more games utilizing this controller though. Once you’ve beaten the game there isn’t much else to do with the controller.

4 Stars Surprisingly I Had Fun w/This!
I bought this for a gift for my boyfriend’s son and was pleasantly surprised with the game that came with it. We all tried it out and I became pretty competitive (But of course was no match for my police officer boyfriend who blew us all out of the water with his skills!!) Nonetheless, I actually had fun with this and am contemplating getting one for my Wii system! I will say that my controller seemed to have the battery life sucked out of it a lot quicker though…which didn’t make that much sense to me, but that’s the only thing I noticed. For $20, this really offers a lot!!

5 Stars The game was worth it!
I bought the Zapper because I liked the way it looked and wanted to have something to shoot with. But the game that comes with it was worth twice the price. A WII game for $20? The game is one of my favorites.

5 Stars A Much for the WII
I receive this from amazon and tried it right away. It is a blast. If you love duck hunt like I did with the first nintendo. Then you will love this. I even had to take the gun away from my mom she love it so much. This will be another fun game to play with family and friend.

4 Stars Good, for something to do.
I mean, come on! Nintendo has tons of new products for the Wii everyday, and for something to do, I would say pick up the Wii Zapper. The Zapper is fun, and Link’s Crossbow Training is also the same. It will at least give you something to do for just 20 minutes.
