We're approaching the release of
Nyko's Wireless Nunchuck, which is set for release near the end of the month, one of those events I'm anticipating with glee. While I've always understood the cost benefit of connecting the Wiimote and the Nunchuck with a cord, it's never made it less annoying when you whip yourself in the face while boxing. When
Nyko announced their wireless Nunchuck at CES 2008, the contraption simply made sense. At the time, it was announced that the Wii peripheral was set to ship at the end of January, possibly early February. Well, we're almost there, and all I can think about is how much more enjoyable Wii Boxing is going to be once this little device hits the streets. It's not revolutionary by any stretch of the imagination, but probably one of the most useful additions to the Wii collection I can imagine.
