I didn’t know why that hook existed until like 2016 when people were talking about using classic controllers and controller extenders that had it on the NES classic.

Thought it would be one of those knockoff "consoles" with some built-in games, but it's actually a real Wii peripheral. Cool.
Looks like one of the candy dispenser toys that have fake hard buttons on them.

PowerA is a refutable third party controller manufacturer, so essentially this is a knock off of a third party product... Amazing.
2:07 Seeing the image for the Power A Pro Pack Mini reminded me that I've actually seen the Power A variant in the flesh before at a Walmart (during the Wii's prime years), I even remember holding the remote with it still in the packaging to get a sense of how much smaller it was compared to the real deal.

I know not very many people care about this feature, but does it have storage inside of the Wii Remote? (used for games like Pokémon Rumble and Mii Channel).

A new video by Ak is always a thing of interest.
I have an actual Pro Pack Mini. I do remember the buttons being really stiff.
2:10 So that’s what that smaller Wii mote I have is! I new it sounded similar!
i remember having a wii a few years ago with 1 regular wii remote and 2 power a remotes and then my little sister cut the sensor bar cord
@LunariaPurple

Iirc correctly, if you're super desperate to play a Wii and need a sensor bar but can't get one, you can just light two small candles and they will function the same, as the sensor bar does no sort of interpretation, it only acts as two infrared lights for the Wii remotes sensor to detect.

Imagine Mario Kart Wii online with this controller.
I bought a bootleg wii mote for 6€ on ebay 2 years ago. It works just as well as the original wii mote I have lol

Seeing those colors made me think it was a Rhythm Heaven Wii Remote and Nunchuk
4:01 you said Wii U instead of wii
3:38 i thought original made that sound too?
1:20 Use the Wayback Machine
I never knew that thing on the back of the nunchuck plug actually was for something, and I have no idea why you would need to hook the wrist strap in there
I had this exact controller, if i remember it worked great its just too small even for a kid
5:32 THATS LITERALLY MY 3DS B BUTTON AAAAA MY FINGERS HURT JUST THINKING ABOUT IT
3rd party controllers have always been a common thing to find (madcatz anyone?), but I honestly don't think I ever saw someone with a third party Wiimote. Everyone I knew had official ones as far as I remember.
My little cousin had this (or something like it) when he was four.
0:45 there's my friend Alden
I had a green variation of this wii remote. Holy crap was it tiny. I'm personally not surprised it stopped working it was so bad
Wii remotes are so cheap that I found a Wii remote,nunchuck, and motion plus accessory for under 20 usd
Came here thx to Twitter, not a sub or follower but they recommended me bc I follow Spawn Wave. Nice video
Mom can we get a wii remote We have a wii remote at home Wii remote at home:
8:15 I didn't even know you could do that wtf..
Press F To Pay Respects to that Website.
I think one of my friends had one back when i was young, awesome video Hey whats the name of your outro song? I loved it
Man, Wii games on Wii U look good
my pro pack mini has a weird 2 button that doesn't even need to be pressed because it's so sensitive i can just blow on it from like a meter and it would register it as a press
and I have a wii remote tied to my wrist right now..
The big, but only problems it had was the two button & the control stick. Other than that, not too bad, right?
This kinda reminds me of an old I-con kids wii remote I have
I think i have a camo version of the power a propack mini but the nunchuck is analog stick sticks to the edges and the wii remote itself doesnt work anymore for me
I've seen something like this on GameStop... I was buying one for play with my little sister
just found your channel, I like it! good job.
I'll stick with Hori and 8Bitdo for my 3rd Party Controller needs.

Very neat stuff!
Does it work with the dolphin bar though?
I'm pretty sure it's a knockoff of those third party controllers. Saw third party ones everywhere back in the Wii days. Some walmarts around me still have the shitty rock candy ones

I bought a third party remote and nunchuck before. They cost about 20 bucks, and lasted about a third the time that official controllers did. So you got what you paid for.
I kind of like it
