Pros:Looks just like the real thing, works with original remote no problems, actually came with Nintendo club points certificate. If this is a fake I can't tell the difference.
Cons:A slightly smally build but barely noticeable.I will see how it stands up to use.
Other Thoughts:The packageing all stated Wii compatiable, with Wii trademakes on the box, only the nunchucks were unbranded. I will try to open an account with Nintendo and see if the code works for points as they were the same code in both boxes.
Bottomline:Nice nunchuck nice price drop after I bought it. If you need to replace your nunchuck or you need an extra grab this one.

Great for the price

Pros:- Very cheap. Good to be used as a secondary control. Or 3rd or 4th.- Feels very similar to the original while playing.- Comes package on a nice box, very similar to the original one.
Cons:- Comparing side by side with an original nunchuck, it's quite easy to know that it's not original( it's actually not a con... but there are some reviewers saying it's identical and it's not).- Seems to use more battery than the original one (sometimes the battery runs off and if I attach the original nunchuck, it wokrs).- The plug is not so well built. Sometimes it unplugs
Other Thoughts:- If you want to have extra controllers for visitors once in a while, it's just perfect. But I use the original one for my daily gaming.
Bottomline:It's a good aqquisition for spare controllers when your friends shows up at home... but I do consider an original one better for daily gaming.

Awesome, indistinguishable

Pros:- Works (a biggie)- Mine looked indistinguishable from the real thing. The box looked like a Japanese box, same as online real images- Either they shipped me a real one by mistake, or this is a triumph of Chinese reverse engineering.I don't own a Wii, but I use it to connect to my Arduino and such. Since I'm dealing with the rough values, I can see that I'm getting good numbers, good detail and pretty stable.
Cons:Haven't found any.
Other Thoughts:
Bottomline:Buy it. Buy it now.You know you want to. Or not. in which case, don't buy it.

Cannot fulfil its expectations

Pros:The Price is low and real good.It just looks like the original Nunchuck - you can hardly tell which one is the WU-Brand - also because it´s branded "Nintendo" like the original one on the connector.
Cons:My WU-Nunchuck broke after about 10 months - i own a second one which was in a set with a WU-Wiimote, which also broke after about 6 months of usage.There might have been a software update or i don´t know what, because if i connect the WU-Nunchucks to a Wiimote the Wiimote hangs-up and doesn´t react until you disconnect the WU-Nunchucks again
Other Thoughts:It worked well at the beginning and everything was fine until day X...
Bottomline:I wouldn´t buy it again unless you want to resell it and you are conscience-proof

Cheap chuck!

Pros:Great alternative if you want a cheap Nunchuck.It has exactly the same functions as a genuine chuck but much cheaper because the quality is not the same as Nintendo.Comes in its own box so no chance of it gettting damaged in just a bag.
Cons:Only cons would be that the moulding of the plastic is not very good around the edges and i'm sure the cable is shorter than a genuine one.Tell tale 3rd party HK sticker on the bottom so remove that :P
Other Thoughts:Maybe the cable could be longer as mentioned in the Cons.
Bottomline:Get it, its cheap and despite the bad case moulding it's good for light useage or just for using when testing repaired consoles
