HEllo, i tried searching for this, but i couldn't get the search narrow enough.

I recently got a wii, and i love it.

i love the party aspect of this and the fact that 4 people can play at the same time.

here's my question: are there a lot of games that use 4 nunchucks? i think rayman:ravaging rabbids uses it(i have that one), but are there any others? super smash bros. brawl?

i have 2, and i bought 2 more thinking they were necessary, but it looks like i should just save the $40...

thanks for any input!

thanks for the replies.

i think i'll be returning the nunchucks, then.

if i need it for smash bros brawl, i'll buy them again.

should i get a classic controller w/ teh money? or can my game cube controllers work?

classic controls are a must for any N64 titles on VC... i guess you could use GC controls but i prefer the classics

as for the forum... the only game i have that would use 4 nunchuks is strikers charged but i never have people over that know how to play well enough that they'd want to play (usually just my brother... i have 2 nunchuks)

you'll probably need it for brawl...

trumpettruck

so as in "must", you mean for aesthetic reasons, right?

trumpettruck

is the control scheme 100% guaranteed somewhere?

thanks!

The classic controller and GC controller are switchable. If a game or VC game allows usage of one, it also lets you use the other. It's a matter of prepherance. I recommend having 4 wiimotes, nunchucks, classic controllers and cube controllers just for Brawl alone.

Safe assumption is that for every Wiimote you have, the developer assumes you have a nunchuk to pair with it also.

It also depends on the game, Brawl for instance has multiple controller configs. Raving Rabbids also has some fall-back measures in some minigames for those who don't have a nunchuk present.

that sounds awesome, but that's also a lot of dough!

i'll definitely buy nunchucks for that game!

On Brawl, you can use everything from the Wiimote/nunchuck to the GameCube controller.

Mario Kart controls will probably be similar to Excitetruck since a steering wheel is coming with Mario Kart.
