I'm not interested in worth.. that's why I'm not posting this in that forum. I'm just curious if anyone here knows any more information about these. I'm sure they don't have anything like this commercially available yet. I've checked. All I've been able to uncover about it is there are a small amount who say it is in the works.. not much more.

I got them from a Ebay seller who does not deal in such items, oddly enough. He said they where a sample and they are in fact working condition.

Here are some pictures.. I posted a video link below.

Could this mean Nun-Chuck adapters soon to come to our local stores?

Seems kinda silly since all it really looks like it is is an extension bar for the Nunchuck and I don't see how a longer nunchuck grip will make it more useable since you still have to hold it up at the top where the analog stick is to use it. The bottom half of the handle serves no purpose.

you have to put the hardware for the wireless adaptor somewhere.

Interesting ... so the cord runs out the side of the battery holder and snaps into the bottom.

I'm not sure if having all the extra size and weight added to the nunchuck (not to mention the cord flopping around like that) would make the experience any more enjoyable.

Though, I'd have to hold it to really see.

actually it's extremely light.. and you can store some of the wire inside.. otherwise.. I just wrap it under my hand when playing...

On a side note the nun Chuck holder has a button that allows it to link with the module that connects into the Wiimote.

It doesn't seem very useful seeing as how you still hold them the same distance apart. the wire is still there to so I really think its pointless. I'd probably still buy it for some strange reason.

Well, it's going to be for those games that require more motion.. Besides, I'm sure I'm not the only person who's gotten whipped in the face with the cord.

And to remedy the dangling cord thing I've twist tied it close to the adapter.

Nyko just received the Best of CES award for their wireless nun chuck accessory coming out.

I think the advantage is not having extra wires around, which I am a fan of. My concerns would be on the battery usage though, as now you would need two batteries per controller and maybe two more for each nun chuck. I am in favor of rechargeable stations though (I bought the Nyko charging station for my Wii controllers).
