You Can't Waste Your Bucks On Wii Peripherals

By Lera Choinski


If you like consoles with a lot of useless peripherals, you've probably got a Nintendo Wii. You'll find it has a peripheral device to be added to the Wii remote, for literally any useless function that you could imagine. Whether it's plastic bats or plastic balls, you can turn your remote into anything.

The only thing that you need to play Wii games are usually the peripherals that already came with your console. That means the Wii remote, as well as the nun chuck attachment.

In fact, one of the more popular types tend to be golf clubs or baseball bats, which make your Wii remote actually look like both things. While that seems cool, it actually does nothing for the gameplay, and can actually reduce the effectiveness of your Wii.

But what do you actually get out of them? Nothing. They are simply large pieces of plastic that attach to your Wii remote, and don't provide you with any type of advantage when playing the game.

There are good peripherals for the Nintendo Wii, but you've got to know how to spot those that aren't going to give you anything, compared to those that will provide you with a great experience on the console.

For example, they sell a Wii bowling accessory that's literally just a ball that you can plug the controller into. This isn't going to make you any better at bowling though, and it's going to set you back almost $30.

But the Wii Zapper can make things easier by holding the Wii remote in more of a gun like shape. That way aiming is a lot more natural, and you're going to find that your performance in these games is increased.

That being said, it is still a piece of plastic, and you aren't paying for anything that you absolutely need to play the game. So just beware when you make the purchase.
