+The '''Nunchuk''' is the first controller attachment [[Nintendo]] revealed for the [[Wii Remote]] at the 2005 Tokyo Game Show. It connects to the Wii Remote via a long cord, and its appearance while attached resembles the nunchaku. It features an analog stick similar to the one found on the [[Nintendo GameCube]] controller and two trigger buttons (a last minute modification changed the two triggers to one trigger and a "C" button, as described below). It works in tandem with the main controller in many games. Like the Wii Remote, the Nunchuk also provides accelerometer for three axis motion-sensing and tilting, but without a speaker, a rumble function, or a pointer function.
