The good: Comfortable design; enables play of downloadable Virtual Console titles.

The bad: Doesn't play GameCube games; needs to be tethered to the Wiimote, from which it also draws power and connectivity; offers few advantages over connecting an old GameCube controller.

The bottom line: Unless you don't have a GameCube controller or any GameCube games, give this Wii peripheral a pass.
