All About The Wii Controller And Its Options
Nintendo introduced the Wii in 2005 and its popularity has only grown over the past years. For the uninitiated, this game console and all of the games created for it work via wireless remote controls. It can get confusing if you shop for a Wii controller because there are so many different options to choose from. This article will help clarify what the different controller options are and how they are used in the games.
The basic controller is a rectangular, hand-held remote. It comes with a built-in speaker, has an external connector for a Nunchuk (which we will discuss later in this article), Classic Controller connector and a rumble feature which causes the remote to vibrate at particular points in games or to alert a player that it is his or her turn. Basic controllers come in white, black, blue and pink. They are battery operated; a recharging port is available separately. Each Wii game console supports four Wii remote controllers.
The very first attachment to the basic remote was the Wii Nunchuk. The Nunchuk lets the characters move quickly. It is held in one hand and the basic remote is held in the other during game play. The Nunchuk plugs into the remote and does not require its own power. The four foot cord is long enough for easy movement. They are available for purchase in white or black.
The official Nintendo Magazine stated that the Wii Motion Plus expansion device is totally accurate. The purpose of the Motion Plus is to make a character do complicated moves with ease. It fits onto the bottom of the basic remote and does not interfere with other games when left attached to the basic remote. Color choices include pink, black, white and blue. The Wii Motion Plus is used with the Legend of Zelda, Academy of Champions, Crazy Mini Golf, Grand Slam Tennis and many others.
The Wii also makes a controller for the game Dance Dance Revolution. In this case, the controller is a pad that the player dances on. It is used instead of the hand-held remote control.
For shooting games, Wii created the Perfect Shot controller. It can be held one-handed and is completely accurate. Most people prefer the Perfect Shot over the Wii Zapper controller. While shooting with the Perfect Shot remote, the Nunchuk is used. The player holds one controller in each hand.
Some people find it difficult to hold the Nunchuk and the main remote with their two hands, so Nintendo created the official Wii Zapper with Link’s Crossbow Training controller. It holds both the basic remote and the Nunchuk, which improves steadiness. It must be used with two hands.
The Wii Wheel controller is used for games that require steering movements. The remote is attached horizontally on the wheel.
All of these Wii remotes can be purchased separately. The primary remote is the Wii basic controller. Choosing and using the type of Wii controller that each individual game recommends will provide the best gaming experience to all serious players.

Interior Design in 2010
2010 will be a year where the right interior design is paramount. Due to the economic downturn, more and more people will be looking to entertain at home and turning to money-saving ways of making their home look special. Recycled and repurposed items mixed with eco-friendly natural materials are the over-riding themes for the year. Here is our rundown of interior design predictions for 2010.
Natural Materials – Solid wood flooring has been popular for a number of years now and it’s no surprise that this is a trend that will continue into 2010. Natural materials will become more popular in other areas of the home too. Think solid wood furniture and accessories instead of glass, plastic or metal, preferably wood which shows off the grain with some previously less popular woods being king such as mango, sheesham or acacia. Even good old pine will make a comeback. Natural stone is also in.
Classic/Retro Style – Vintage furnishings will see a rise in popularity this year. Pay particular note to shag-pile rugs, Chesterfield sofas, antique or rustically styled furniture and bold printed fabrics. Warmth and comfort will replace many of the hard, modern lines of previous popularity. Antique furnishings combined with a modern setting create an air of sophisticated style.
Green – This year’s colour will be green in all its guises. Teals and turquoises are definitely hot and bold floral prints will be popular. Use as an accent colour with creams and off-whites for a classic colour combination. Alternatively, mix light teals and blue-greys with splashes of bold accent colours such as purples or oranges.
Green, again – We’ve already mentioned the colour but this time we mean “eco-friendly”. Sustainable is no longer for eco-mentalists and some great sustainable products this way come. Look out for sustainable wood items such as bamboo and mango wood. Recycled items are also really hot, especially recycled or repurposed furniture and accessories, craft pieces and second-hand items given a new lease of life. Not so much recycled tin cans, more repainted or re-upholstered classic pieces and inventive use of materials.
Staying in – Since the recent economic downturn, more and more people have been deciding upon entertaining at home as opposed to going out. This trend will continue throughout 2010 and beyond. Comfortable, stylish designs are a must if you’re entertaining at home and nothing creates a talking point like a stylishly repurposed item. Now is the time to dig out that old Chesterfield sofa and recover it in printed fabric or repaint that old battered coffee table. Get creative with ideas.
The Great Outdoors – Everybody loves entertaining outdoors. There’s nothing like a good barbecue and drinks in a well planned and decorated garden. Design trends will be similar outdoors with creative use of repurposed materials along with solid wood furniture and eastern or cottage influenced planting.
Have fun with your home. A home is not a static design; it is an ever evolving, living organism which continually needs attention. Make your home look the way you want it to, not how some pop star’s house looks on TV in some glossy magazine. After all, it’s you that will be living there and a home which reflects your personality will be far more pleasing than a carbon copy of someone else’s home.
