Wireless Nunchuck for Wii in production?

[Steven W]

Rumour - Not sure why Nintendo would develop a wireless Nunchuck when the one that has been already produced does the job fine, but...

Check out the Headline

I found that the lead hit me in the face a bit when playing boxing, and that you don't have a massive range of movement with the lead connecting the two.

Then again I can't use my Wii at all because my Wiimotes are dead

whats the story behind that?

They've stopped working!

Well ok, one works but its got no sound or blue lights, the other just doesn't work at all. Trying to get them replaced or even contact Nintendo is painful. I'm on 8 emails without a reply (apart from an automated one this morning).

Levaing the Nunchuck plugged into the Wii-motes runs down the battery in the Wii-motes, I know two people not including myself who have had this.

I hate to teach you to suck eggs but...have you tried changing the batteries, but maybe leaving them out for a bit too to reset the NVRAM which is used to store stuff. Though the NVRAM might not be true its what they normally use in storage.

The prob I have witht he nunchuk is its a bit lightweight compared to the wiimot. Maybe being wireless the batteries would weight it down a bit
