My first time to post a bargain. It's a bargain to me at least. Have checked StaticICE. Normally it costs $30+. So I bought two. Hopefully it wouldn't turn out to be a picture only or just a plastic cover. Thanks guys.

Awesome :D just ordered 2 thanks. Been wanting to get some for ages but couldn't justify $25 each for something i don't use often.
Thanks for this, just what I needed! Cheers! =]
just ordered one, good price!!
Good find! It's about time prices for these dropped!
Good one ozdragon!
should i buy it?? my controllers are white and not sure i have any games that use it anyway. i rarely use the wii
If you plan on buying Zelda Skyward Sword later this year then you you'll want this. Apparently it requires wii motion plus. That's all the games I can think of :p.
EDIT: just looked at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wii_MotionPlus and some games that require motion plus came bundled with it when it launched which might be the case for Zelda.
Zelda won't come with this bundled as production of these have most probably been discontinued.
Now that all Wii remotes have MotionPlus built in as standard, there is no need for these attachments unless you bought Wii remotes before the upgrade and aren't keen on paying another $60+ for a new one.
Two games that I really thought were awesome that needed the motion plus were Red Steel 2 and Tiger Woods. Fact is, without those 2 games, I wouldn't even have considered buying the motion plus.
i'm in the same shoe as urs… still thinking if i should i buy it.. the wii has been sitting there as a display for more than 6 months already…
made by nintendo or other company?
Bought 4, just to update my wii to current spec.
Nice one, bought, thanks!
Good job OP, bought a few for me & friends…thanks!
Brilliant find,, thanks DragonDude :)
Just ordered one to replace the now-faulty (not so) cheapie I got from HK last year for the second controller.
The Motion Plus feature is now standard on new Wii controllers, so that might explain the sell-off of these,,, that and the blacknessisity…
As far as games requiring the feature,,, all the Beach Sports games use it for sure.
Live Long and Wii,
Jean-Luc.~~
\_/7BTW anyone able to find other colours on special?
These were only released in black and white as far as I know.
I'm assuming JB have managed to sell all of their white ones (online, at least) as there is no listing of it on their website.
These were only released in black and white as far as I know.
There are pink and ice-blue too.
Remotes, yes. But not Motion Plus attachments.
BTW, in case anyone missed it, these are only ATTACHMENTS to the original Wii Remote… this isn't the Wii Remote Plus that now comes standard in all Wii bundles.
Sorry for the dumb question but do you need the Wii Motion Plus if you have the new Wii Remote Plus controller?
No, the new Wiimotes have motion plus built in
Nice just got x3 of these. I have white controllers but for $10 each these are too good to pass up.
Haven't used my wii for about 6 months.. but I will be getting the new zelda when it comes out so I guess I should pick one of these up.
Thanks, got 2 to "future proof" my wii.
I hear these can increase the length of your wiimote by a good 1.5 inches.
size is everything isn't it
comes with the remote as well is it ?
Better get in before broden buys them all.
LOL i reckon…
LOL yeah… probs needs 40 to go with all the wiis hes bought as well!
Just got 2. Been meaning to since they came out but like others couldn't justify how pricey they are. Rather genuine than cheap copies.
Have original white wiimotes but don't care
Thanks to OPNot sure if I should buy them or try get EB Games to price match the white ones.
can't seem to find them anymore - tried jb retail, eb, toys r us this morning
Thanks for the post ozdragon. Just grabbed 2. This ozbargain site is really hitting my wallet of late :) (but in the right way)
Thanks, just bought 2. Not cos I NEED them now, but in case I need them in the future for games and they have been discontinued.
Thanks for your post mate, just bought 2
Epic find ozdragon! Muchly appreciated as I've been looking for a good price on these for ages!
Meh ended up buying 4, save me from going all the way to EB Games.
Ordered one for my spare remote.
Interestingly, the site allows you to order up to 99 so whether they actually have adequate stock of these should be interesting.
Ordered two. Not really needed but couldn't help it as they were so cheap :)
Ozbargainers are gonna put them out of stock real quick, 3 brought so I dont end up having to spend umpteen dollars buying new remotes in the future… Much appreciate.
does anyone have one of these yet? i'm just curious about adding the extra length to the controller. most games i play on the wii require the controller to be sideways, adding another inch to the bottom (or right side) of the controller makes me think that the 1 and 2 buttons would be a lot harder to reach with my thumb..
can anyone comment on that?
you can always remove it if the game you are playing doesn't require motion plus
It does make games that use the wiimote sideways harder to play..unless you have an incredibly long thumb. I only attach mine when I need it. Most games don't use it so I don't have it on. That's why I prefer the Wii Remote Plus but you can't complain for $10.
thanks mate. this spoils it for me.. i really only want this so i can get an official rubber casing for the controller. if i have to pull the cover + attachment off to play a game, then it's no fun.
thanks for the info though!
FYI, these motion plus attachments come with a longer stretchy sleeve that replaces the standard protective cover, to accommodate the overall longer unit.
The MP attachment "passes through" the numb-Chuck connection so that you don't need to remove the MP bizzo to use a non-MP / numchuk game…
BTW, it was the nummchuchk connector that's gone dodgy on my HK knock-off unit :( , hence the attraction of this deal to me!
~~
\_/7I leave the MP connected the whole time, regardless of whether the game requires it or not. Don't find it a problem at all. If you have small hands then yeah maybe you might want to remove it…
Same here,, the MP only comes off for battery charging or if the $%^^&# thing won't connect to the dumbnchuck properly.

Ordered 2 for myself (hopefully the next wiimotes I buy have inbuilt motion plus) and 1 for my brother.
Very nice price, I was considering getting some from dealextreme, but I thought better of it.
Yeah, I got a controller, knumkchuck and motion plus from DX to make up a 2nd controller for the Weeiii when we bought it 12 months ago.
The controller and numnmkchuchk are still going strong, but the MP (which was much more than AU$10 ATT) is now unusable with the chumnuck :(

Thx OZdragon for post, nice bargain
so has anyone successfully pricematched for white ones at ebgames, etc?
We're all too busy buying the black ones at a bargain price to bother wasting our time at EB.
Don't be surprised if EB gives you their lame excuse of it being 'under cost' to them.
It may well be under their (EB's) cost price…
It could be under JB's cost price, but they're better off clearing them at some potential loss rather than spend more money holding them in stock.
In the end these are businesses, not charities :)
That's not to say EB mightn't PM on this'un, if only to keep customers coming back??
~~
\_/7Hmm, never heard that excuse from them before. I have however been told they won't price match a computer printout, needs to be a catalog of a store which is both nearby and has the item in stock.
Nah, Ive had the excuse from EB before. "We can do what we want" she told me as I pointed to the advertisement on the wall which said "Seen it cheaper, then we'll match it". Never been back since. Rather pay a couple of bucks more, if need be, at Big W or GAME within the same shopping centre. EB can go forth and multiple within, as far as I am concerned.
Well at least I've had one really good experience with them….
I accidentally (I swear I didn't realize until after) got them to price match a US price (it was a US store that is over here too, target I think).
just got one, thanks
Looks like they're all gone :(
Followed link and website says "Not Available"Bad luck m8, good deal never last!
I just ordered 2 this morning. So they might of found more stock!
I just ordered 2 as well just now.
Yep, just checked and can now add to cart again :)
I've un-EXPIRED the deal again…
~~
\_/7Not available again…guessn all gone this time.
Any really good games that work well with this? Want to give it a good test out (I swear I only bought 2 so don't blame me for them selling out :P ).
There's a list here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wii_MotionPlus#Supported_games
Tiger Woods and Red Steel 2 are the games that jump out at me from that list, I'm pretty certain they both had some decent critical acclaim.
Not available… I was too slow… :(
me too :(
I bought a white one before and it comes with a white skin
so this one will probably come with a black skin
as far as i can tell this looks to be an original one
Could this please be "expired" now?
(T Man's comment recreated after being overwritten in error: TEGH)
Done.

Is your payment with paypal stuck on PENDING
Yes, mine is
same here
Yes, I'm starting to wonder what's going on with this……
Yeah same here, they better follow through with the transaction and deliver the goods!
Has anyone had a successful "completed" tag?
Hrrrm mines stuck on PENDING as well… Has anyone even received there goods yet?
I still haven't received an update. I received the initial order confirmation e-mail on Saturday night, but I'm concerned by the fact that when I log into the JB Hi-Fi website, there is no record of this order in my account history. I have just e-mailed them about the order and will report back if I get a reply.
UPDATE: I received a reply from JB Hi-Fi advising me that the item is on order with their supplier and at this stage they cannot provide an estimated date for dispatch. I was advised that my payment would not be processed until the order is ready for dispatch. I was given the option of cancelling the order if I didn't want to wait.
Strange thing is that when I ordered the Wii Motion Plus the website stated it was in stock.
my payment just went through today as completed.
Thanks for the update…I think mine is in the 'same boat' (may be literally)!
Ran out of stock & await for supplier!! They could have inform
us this instead of us chasing it up considering it was
'in stock' at time of order!!!UPDATE: Have now received an e-mail advising that order was dispatched from warehouse / supplier today. Amazing what a difference 24 hours can make.
i rang them, it's just dispatched this morning, so probably get it next week
Just received a shipping confirmation.
I got my "shipped" e-mail today too :)
Thanks again DragonDude…
~~
\_/7Mine came today - I only ordered one for the spare remote. Looks good. Definitely genuine.
Mine arrived yesterday too.
Only ordered 1, and yes, it's definitely a genuine one.Thanks OP for posting this deal +1
Got mine today [BrisVegas],, yeah :) :)
Thanks again DragonDude…
~~
\_/7Still waiting for mine (sydney address)…despatch from their w/house on 4th March.
