Perhaps my most favourite (and most expensive!!) Wii accessory is this Activision Redoctane Wireless Guitar Controller. Shaped like a classic Les Paul guitar, it is the perfect accessory for Guitar Hero, which I was given along with my Wii when I had it for my birthday a couple of years ago.

This is quite a squeeze, so you have to ...  Read the complete review

For those of you who don't know guitar hero world tour is a music game consisting of a drummer, singer, guitar, but other instruments can be added including a bass ...  Read the complete review

The 'RedOctane Wireless Guitar' made by Activision is the controller which comes as standard when you purchase Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock for the Nintendo Wii.

The neck end houses the five coloured fret buttons (green, red, yellow, blue & orange) whilst the body of the unit houses the strum bar, whammy bar, two buttons and a control stick. The control stick is generally only used for navigating through the Wii menu system before loading the guitar Hero game, and is not needed during actual gameplay.
