Product review (5 stars): Works great
Though not made by Nintendo, and though it looks a little different, this third-party Wii remote works just as well for typical use.  It does not have the Motion Plus built in, and the wrist strap fastener is slide-only, not slide-and-lock like Nintendo makes.  Otherwise, I've had no problems using it.  It syncs easily, connects every time, and works the same as my remotes made by Nintendo.
