They also said that the Wii U infringes on their patents as well and claims that Nintendo was aware of the fact that the Wii allegedly violates ThinkOptics' patents.

Still another program (like GlovePIE) is needed to utilize the Wii Remote's protocol and to use the data it offers. Nintendo initially declined to comment, but later announced the device on September 29, 2010, confirming it to be a Wii Remote with MotionPlus built in, allowing players to use peripherals like the Wii Zapper and Wii Wheel and comfortably use the Wii Remote horizontally without having to remove the Wii MotionPlus attachment from the Wii Remote. The attachment bundled with the Wii console is the Nunchuk, which complements the Wii Remote by providing functions similar to those in gamepad controllers. The multiple kinds of controllers that can connect to the Wii Remote make it into a more versatile controller, opening up new Wii controller configurations and likewise multiple control schemes.The Wii Remote, [a] also known colloquially as the Wiimote, is the primary game controller for Nintendo's Wii home video game console.

The position and motion tracking of the Wii Remote allows the player to mimic actual game actions, such as swinging a sword or aiming a gun, instead of simply pressing buttons. Interlink Electronics filed a patent-infringement lawsuit against Nintendo in December 2006 over the pointing functionality of the Wii Remote, claiming "loss of reasonable royalties, reduced sales and/or lost profits as a result of the infringing activities" of Nintendo. I am using a wireless Nunchuk controller by some third party company (Snakebyte), and I was trying many, many times to get the wireless Nunchuk running on any lib out there.

There is no way to calibrate the position of the cursor relative to where the user is pointing the controller without the two stable reference sources of light provided by the Sensor Bar or substitutes. The Wii MotionPlus is an expansion device that allows the Wii Remote to more accurately capture complex motion. Todbot has created the Wiichuk, an adapter to facilitate connecting the Nunchuk to an Arduino board.

This can be alleviated by using fluorescent or LED lights, which emit little to no infrared light, around the Wii. In May 2013, Nintendo announced a rechargeable battery and dock accessory, and various third-party manufacturers market charging solutions for the controller (see Wii Remote Chargers).It will stay "unplugged" until the status button is released again, however long the button is held down for.

Reggie told GameTrailers, "(E3) was not the kind of environment for a game based on relaxation", and said that they were saving news on the device for another time and place. Wii Fit, Wii Fit Plus, Wii Music, Mario Strikers Charged, Madden NFL 08,and NBA LIVE 08 also make use of the Nunchuk attachment. Unlike most accessories, the Classic Controller largely usurps the Remote's functionality, with the Remote's buttons duplicated on the Controller.

The Wii Remote assumes a one-handed remote control-based design instead of the traditional gamepad controllers of previous gaming consoles. In the United States, the Nunchuk was the best-selling video game hardware for January 2008, with 375,000 units sold, in a month where the Wii was the best-selling console with 274,000 units sold. But when the Blade-FX is synced, it sends a status report indicating that an extension is connected. The Remote should be pointed approximately towards the Sensor Bar; precise pointing is not necessary so long as it is within the limited viewing angle of the Wii Remote.
