Nintendo Wii Nunchuk Controller add-on (Wii)Customer Review: needed for some games.Some notes about nunchuks
A nunckuk is a simple atachment to the Wii remote that gives you extra control over a game.So far 4 out of 6 of my games need it.If it has a nunchuk icon in the top-right corner of the box it needs it for all or part of the game.You get one free with the console,but you can get another for multiplayer. Here are some notes:
1.The control stick has a special feature:you can move it a little bit and it does the action a little bit,like a steering wheel!
2.The upper button is called \"c\" and the lower button is called \"z\" so if you see c and z mentioned in reviews you`ll know what they`re talking about. Don`t get them the wrong way round!
3.It fits in your hand perfectly-no need to worry about it being uncomfortable.
4.Don`t put the control stick in your mouth (if you do it goes all yellow).
5.The cord length is fine(almost the armspan of a quite tall 9-year-old).

So overall the nunchuk wins 5 stars for its special control stick feature; fitting into your hand nicely; and its cord length, and only has 1 bad point which is being just plain white and even this is hardly a \"bad\" point because you never look at the nunchuk when you`re playing and even this can be fixed by buying a skincase for it.
Customer Review: A Must have
This is a brilliant assesory/add on, and it is a must have to play most games.

Trauma Center: Second Opinion (Wii)In a nutshell:
Now everyone can be a brain surgeon as you pick up scalpel and forceps to battle the full horrors of an infected intestine, medical terrorism and angry anime nurses!

The lowdown:
The original Trauma Center is already one of the most original and fun games on the Nintendo DS but although this is largely just a remake of that game it\'s more than welcome on the Wii. As accurate a simulation of real medicine as Phoenix Wright is of law (i.e. not very much) you\'ll nevertheless have great fun repairing hapless patients with ailments that start of as simple tumours to bizarre fights against evil terrorist nanobots. What really makes the game though is the simple intuitiveness of the controls, with the precise movement of your scalpel being one of the best endorsements of the Wii Remote\'s accuracy. The game\'s no push over though and you\'ll need to employ the mysterious bullet time style \"healing touch\" to make sure you don\'t end up the Doctor Death of Hope Hospital.

Most exciting moment:
Although the game is a remake of the DS it does include several new missions, an extra playable character, new operation types and new surgical tools - including a defibrillator which demands a shout of \"clear!\" every time you use it.

Since you ask:
A surgery game was one of the first styles of games hinted at in an introductory video for the Wii, which also showed people appearing to play games involving fishing, cooking and playing the drums - amongst other non-typical games concepts.

The bottom line:
Major surgery has never been so much fun as the Wii and DS line-up combine.-HARRISON DENT
Customer Review: A strange mix of a game
This isn\'t a bad game, but it is a strange mix of ideas that have come together to form this.

Firstly, the controls are good. A combination of using the wii remote with one hand to cut, drain, zap with laser, stitch and apply antibiotic gel, and the nunchuk with the other to quickly scroll between your options. The things you need to do to complete each operation are well paced, the problem solving aspect is good, and the difficulty is about right.

The cutscenes are plenty. The story is reasonably written and the pictures are well drawn. However, I would question whether any gamer actually reads them all. So for those that don\'t, wouldn\'t it be great if we could bypass them? Unfortunately there is no option to do so, meaning you\'re stuck with clicking the \'A\' button through the hundreds of useless screens.

Finally, the knowledge background is appalling. If you ever thought the medical scenarios in ER were unbelievable, then this is ten times worse. Ridiculous made up anatomy, medical terms and operations that would normally kill someone are put forward here. It makes saving someone easier though - just smear antibiotic gel or inject some green liquid into them every time their health is getting low and they will miraculously recover!

I guess you just have to accept that this is a game and try not to learn anything from it.
Customer Review: Could Make you bald!!!!!!!
ok don\'t get more wrong, this game is fun but it can be so hard at times. If your like me and you can just play games without getting stressed and you fancy being a doctor this game is for you, and if not this game is not for you, i would not recommed it for anyone under 13(I think younger people may find it a bore)
