Revolutionary control
Sporting the dimensions of a small traditional remote control, the
wireless Wii Remote is a multifunctional device that is limited only by
the game designer's imagination. The magic of the Wii Remote's design
lies within; acellerometers inside the controller body measure movement
in all directions and at all speeds. In a tennis game, it serves as your
racket as you swing your arm for a long forehand or a quick and hard
backhand. In a 4x4 driving game it serves as a steering wheel, allowing
you to swerve to avoid obstacles or pickup power-ups. In first-person
shooters, the Wii Remote acts as a firearm that you can point directly
at an on-screen enemy. The list of potential uses is enormous, and the
light weight of the Wii Remote allows gamers to play for hours without
feeling fatigued.As comfortable as it is functional
The Wii Remote is equally comfortable in right and left hands and houses
just the right number of buttons for gaming- not so many that new
players will get confused, but enough so that Wii games don't feel
constrained. On the face of the remote are the D (or "plus") pad, a
large "A" button which is used for major on-screen actions, and two
small options buttons. Between the game buttons are a plus and minus
buttons (which often act as "forwards" and "back"), as well as a "Home"
button to engage the Wii home screen to change settings or check remote
battery levels. On the back side of the controller is a trigger-like "B"
button, perfect for timing releases.

wrist. Wii MotionPlus must be used with a Wii Remote, which is sold
