4.0 out of 5 stars Throw-back!, March 20, 2010

This remote is a total throw-back to the old days. It is very similar to holding the old style control in your hands. The only issues that I had was it is a little bit bigger than the old-school one. It is a bit harder to hold if you have smaller hands. The other thing is that I can't hardly get the wii remote out of the darn thing! It is really wedged in there. It does not damage it and I always eventually pull it out of there, but with nails....it is tough sometimes!

First off, as other reviewers have stated, this "Big Oversized Super Shell (B.O.S.S.) is just that. It's oversized, it's comfortable in your hands, and it's built very sturdily. My five year old daughter uses it constantly. She has no problems reaching the buttons. When I first opened the package, I was expecting some cheap flimsy piece of plastic. Not the case! This controller shell is made of thick plastic!

Some people have been having trouble getting the remotes out. In the directions, it shows a small panel at the end of the controller. You pull this "panel" (or tab, for lack of better words) and pull the wrist strap. Voila! It pops out, no resistance of any kind.

This is a great buy for the money. I can't get over how well this controller fits in your hand. I thought it would be bulky and heavy. I was wrong!

If you're looking for a good alternative to the 40 dollar "classic controller" offered by Nintendo, you should seriously take a look at this product.

I got this to play donkey kong returns and it reminds me of the old school controller and back in the good ol' days. i'm definitely glad i got it. i was worried by a review that i read about the size..... but i'm a 21 yr old gal and 5'3'' and it fits great in my hands. i don't have any problems at all with it.
