 Why didn't Nintendo do this? September 4, 2008
The standard Nintendo Wii nunchuck is a perfect if:
1. You are 4'6" or shorter.
2. You don't mind getting hit with the cord now and then.
3. You like accidentally unplugging your chuck.
4. You enjoy having the cord flip up around your hand half the time.
If you don't fit in all of these categories then the Kama Wireless Controller is waiting for you. The dongle (so much more fun to say than "adapter") fits snugly in the bottom of the Wiimote and can even fit inside a Wiimote sleeve if you stretch it carefully. The chuck is a little fatter than the regular one but not so much that you'll really notice - even my five year old has never complained about it being hard to hold.
My only problem with this is the low battery indicator. The light on top of the chuck will get noticibly dimmer over time but otherwise you only know it's running down when you start getting nunchuck connection errors on screen. Some people have also complained about this add-on requiring additional batteries. Of course it does: nobody's invented wireless electricity yet. Besides, if you have a Wii and aren't made of cash you really ought to be using rechargable batteries anyway.
I've had this for about three months and I've used it on a bunch of games: Wii Sports, Wii Play, Zelda Twilight Princess, Metrod Prime Corruption, Mario Galaxy. I have not tried it yet with Wii Fit, but if someone wants to buy me a copy I promise to update this review right away.

I bought the wireless nunchuk on special and was really excited about it. I like to box and sometimes the wire can come back and hit you if you are having "a little too much fun" when using the traditional nunchuk. Of course I had to try it right away. Unfortunately, the wireless remote is not as accurate. When I would throw a punch it would not always register. It is fine for playing games that don't require the speed and accuracy that boxing requires. I would say I was a little disappointed with it overall.

I returned this item before I even opened the package. The photo shows a remote and a nunchuck but you don't receive both pieces. You only get a nunchuck. Please be aware.
Worth it at the sale price. August 10, 2008

I got this for $10 off on a gold box deal and feel it is worth the price, but as the product stands now, I wouldn't pay $34 for it. I might feel the full price was justified if I played the boxing games, but it is not on any of the games I play although I do enjoy being free of the wire.
There was a separate piece of paper included telling how to sync them so that problem in earlier reviews is no longer an issue.
Every hour or so I'll get a message telling me to connect the nunchuck, so it has temporarily lost conductivity. Pressing A immediately corrects it and has not affected the game, but it can be irritating and can disrupt your concentration. This happens when they are not more than 8 inches apart so to me this is a problem.
Make sure you turn it off when you finish play as it does not go off on its own. I'm on my 3rd set of batteries trying to make myself remember this.
Kama no jama July 14, 2008
So we got the Kama wireless nunchuk specifically to use with the Wii boxing games. The first one we had would not synch. Sent it back... second would not synch... contacted tech. support and got an alternative synch method - now it synchs. The wireless is great no tangled wires... only problem is I feel that the sensitivity is lower than it should be for acceleration and it misses a high percentage of punches with the nunchuk (my left) hand. Other than that it is pretty cool to not have to hassle with the wires. Battery life seems as described.
