This is just pure heaven to have, no more leads to trip on and to get taffled in. When I first got it I decided to see how far it would reach and the character was still responding 3 rooms away!

You don´t have to sit to close to the telly anymore, which today is very good as the tellys just get bigger and bigger so you can comfortably sit in the sofa and not having to sit on the floor just because the lead isn´t long enough.

Great also if you got a dog, as mine on a million occasions have gone straight into the lead and almost made the console fall over.

It operates on 2 AA batteries and they do last a long time. I have a Wii now, but got my wavebird plugged in on the side as you can play the old gamecube games on the Wii.

Why nintendo didn´t issue the gamecube with these to start with I have no idea, but I do know that once you have tried one - you never want to play with a normal remote again!
