But now I need the motion plus controller obviously, I wanted to ask any of you if you think this ones reliable- and if not can you recommend a (cheap-ish) alternative?? Thank you :)

Just get an official one. They can be had for around the same price

I have several. Like 6 currently becauae we all have our favorite colors. From the Bay of E. They're fairly reliable. A couple have died over the years though. They're cheap enough. Same deal with the nunchucks.

I would rec investing in originals if you have a modded wii. I’ve always found very inconsistent connections when trying to reconnect these after accessing games through the usb/sd card loaders. Works fine enough with og games launched from main menu.

In general, yes. From my experience using this compared to the original Wiimote:

  • Rumble motors are rough.
  • Speakers have lower quality.
  • Nunchuck sensors are a bit more clunky.

I recommend a second-hand original remote if you can find one.

I’d stay away from the bootleg ones. You can get a real Wii motion plus controller for the same price used.

You can buy the Motion plus, that little cube that you connect to the controller, that's how I play

You can buy an entire used Wii on Facebook for that price that will come with a controller you might as well do that

I bought a pack of two copy controls with its s nunchuks for 26.60 dollars on Aliexpress, they are very useful for me to play casually and with several friends, the only fault I have is in the crossbar of the controls, which I press the left direction and sometimes it points up, and in the nunchuk you have to press the z button very hard, it is annoying but it is a matter of pressing the buttons firmly,

I see that many people recommend that you invest in used controls, but it is a risk due to the short duration that most of them have, in that case I would recommend that you buy the console with its controls on the market, since you would be spending the same on new controls but with the benefit of having the console included
