Functions with just 3 AA batteries (not supplied) up to 40 hours of autonomy / 2 stylish Laser Sabers in which your Wiimote easily inserts
REVIEW
looks great but hampers some gameplay There's no argueing these sabers are the best star wars replicas for wii
sadly the most comfortable place to hold them is the rounded part by the power button. This would be fine if the wiimote slot was as round but it's not and is made worse by needing to press buttons other than the gun trigger
in lightsaber duel. This accessory is best suited to dragon quest where you simply swing it around or the upcoming wii sports resorts.
A 10 for cool factor but a 3 for usability. Had lightsaber duel let you
block and attack by the position of the saber and had jumping and movement on the numchuck this would've been alot better but nintendo kept wii motion
plus to themselves which woul've allowed for this.

flight stick T-Flight Stick X for PC & PS3 had fox2pro stick for a year of steady use and was happy with it. this is the new version with more buttons (some are quite awkward to use). shape and lightness of the stick are same as fox2 but heard an unwelcome crunch after only 3 weeks. part of the auto-centering ring inside broke and my stick now leans right if let go. pretty much unuseable now.
Amazon.com The most realistic flight simulation controller is here: the HOTAS Cougar, lifelike in design, lifelike in performance. This is truly "Hands on Throttle and Stick" gameplay. Based on the actual controller found in F-16 fighter aircraft, the HOTAS transports you to the furthest reaches of flight-simulation technology. From the second you grab hold of both the stick and the throttle, you notice the difference. All metal, black, and ready for business--that is the HOTAS. This controller offers up to 28 programmable buttons, multiple programmable hat switches, and adjustable resistance for the throttle, afterburner, and idle detent. These are just a few of the many features of this revolutionary stick and throttle combo. Without question, the HOTAS Cougar is the controller for true flight enthusiasts.
REVIEW
Very good Item! this is wonderful!
a genuine article -- it is similar and textures are also good.
In Mac (OS9) in which Iiput sprocket is installed, even if it remains as it is, it can use to some extent. Although the present state was also able to use a stick, a throttle and a hat switch, and main buttons,
the button or knob which neither Iiput sprocket nor gamesoftware supports cannot be used.
It seems that Mac can also use almost all functions since the setup is saved in hardware at a joy stick if there is a Windows machine and the key of a keyboard will be assigned with the program software for Windows.
In that case, it seems that it becomes the same reaction as the case where the USB keyboard for Windows is used by Mac.
It purchased in order to use by Mac also recklessly, but it is not likely to be necessary to become useless investment.
Today more and more game launches for the Wii are retro hits or golden oldies originally created for the likes of Nintendo NES, Nintendo Super NES, Nintendo, 64 and Nintendo GameCube. Thrustmaster has created a game pad that will allow gamers to use one game pad for multiple genres of games. The T-Wireless NW is the first programmable and vibrating wireless gamepad allowing users to play Virtual Console, GameCube and Wii games on the Wii! It uses 2.4GHz wireless technology which provides a very respectable 10 meters range. Wireless play is the buzz word in gaming today!The T-Wireless NW is fully programmable thanks to the "Mapping" function which allows users to reassign all buttons, mini-sticks and the D-pad to ensure a truly customized gaming experience. There are also two functions which will really help gamers maximize their gaming experience: "Slow" which allows the player to slow down action and "Turbo" which means the player only needs to press a button to get a power boost rather than making multiple and rapid thumb presses. To top it all off, this gamepad has great ergonomics with a shape that is natural to hold. The rubber coated handles and joysticks ensure superior grip and comfort too.
REVIEW
Great wireless controler for cost! Works very well for me. Only problem is buttons don't stay mapped when you turn it off, but not that big a deal it isn't a huge setup process. For the money I definitely recommend it.

REVIEW
This could have been a great wheel My black MOMO died, pedals quit working, so I needed a new wheel. I've had good luck with thrustmaster wheels in the past so I bought the Pro Clutch Edition. Basic setup was easy. I have two basic problems with the new wheel. First and worst is the mounting of the wheel to the desk. For the life of me I can't tighten the clamp enough to keep the wheel from "rocking back and forth" when you use it in a game. This is very disconcerning when trying to race. Its like trying to race with a tilting wheel that wont lock in place. My other complaint is with the software that comes with the wheel. There is no way of assigning the buttons to any of the F-Function keys. I play the NASCAR 2003 game and you use the F-keys ALOT during race. Another irratation is setting up to use the clutch pedal. I managed to make it work once, but next time could not make it work. Its on the same axis as the brake and there is no way to split it off.
I really thought this was going to be a great wheel for me, but I would have been just as well off the buy a much simpler, cheaper wheel.

REVIEW
Great controller for your game systems Thrustmaster's Run 'N Drive PS2/PS3/PC controller is not only a versatile controller, but quite comfortable to hold. The quality of the controller is- in most areas- much better than your average third party controller.
They made the controller to allow you to remap any analog button on the controller (be it X, O, L2, R2, L1, etc. . .) to the triggers or to any other input button/analog stick/d-pad. If you are playing a game that has you pressing up on the right stick to accelerate, you can map that direction of the stick to be the right analog trigger. Works like a charm, and it works on PS2 games that are in my PS3 when plugged in to my Radio Shack PSX-to-USB controller adapter (which is what I was hoping for).
If you are frustrated that in Burnout Paradise (PS3) the programmers didn't give you the option to press up on the right stick for gas and down on the right stick for brake, this controller will solve that problem. Just remap your controls (which is a pretty quick process if you read the manual).
Here are the upsides to the controller:
1) Quite comfortable to hold.
2) Stick tension is just right, not too loose.
3) Analog "wheel" attachment around the D-pad can give you a little more control over your vehicle than the thumbstick, and it's made out of a very grippy rubber. Note: The wired version of this controller has a smoother feel to the wheel movement than the wireless version does, but it's not a major difference between the two versions.
4) Analog triggers have good travel, are concave, and made out of a grippy rubber. The triggers have just the right amount of tension on the wireless controller, but are definitely more firm to press in on the wired version of the controller-- which is one aspect that makes the wireless version superior.
5) Thumbstick pads are also made out of a grippy rubber.
6) Programmable and versatile (in fact, it stores one preset that you've entered into the controller for each game system even when it's off.) It worked great for my PC racing game.
7) Reasonable cost-- though the wired version is less costly.
8) Wireless
9) I have a Radio Shack controller adapter for my PS3 which allows me to use this controller to play PS2 games on my PS3 which is great because of two reasons: A) It lets you control your PS2 racing games gas and brake functions with push-in analog triggers (or remapped analog face buttons on the controller). The Push-in analog triggers experience for PS2 games is one I'd neverhad before, & it's great-- especially when you couple that with the fact that it supports PS2 game controller-vibration. B) Up to this point, all my PS2 games when plugged in to the Radio Shack PSX-to-USB controller adapter had digital buttons not analog. This is no longer the case. I now have the ability to map the right thumbstick actions (which are registered as analog movements in that RS controller adapter) to any of the analog buttons or analog triggers on the controller.
10) There is a one-of-a-kind PS2-to-PS3 controller adapter made by Dragonplus which allows this controllers rumble motors to be active in PS3 games (the ones which offer the feature anyway). It also has full analog button support which is unusual for these kind of adapters. The box it comes packaged in calls it the "P2 Controller to P3/PC System Convert-- V.2". If you own the R&D controller and a PS3 this is a must-have adapter. At first I didn't think the two were compatible, but then I hit the "home" button on the controller and it was all good.
11) The wireless Run 'n Drive controller has a Playstation 3 "home" button, while the one with a cord doesn't have a "home" button.
Downsides:
1) Takes awhile to get used to the "wheel" attachment. There may be some people who won't like it at all (but don't worry, you can just ignore it if you want to and use the high-quality analog stick). As I mentioned before, the wireless version's wheel slides around a little less smoothly than the wired version's wheel.
2) Thumbstick pads are convex, and I would have preferred them to be concave.
3) L2 and R2 buttons are on the underside of the controller and certain people might feel that it's a little inconvenient to have to map those buttons to the triggers (which aren't on the underside of the controller). To me this just is no big deal at all.
4) D-pad is significantly small, so may not be the ideal means to control your fighting games.
5) The controller is a tiny bit smaller than I would have preferred, and the right and left thumbsticks are closer to one another than the thumbsticks on the official Sony Sixaxis controller. This close proximity might result in thumbs bumping together when doing certain things in first person shooter games (strafing right whileturning left), but this all depends on where you are placing your thumbs when using the controller.
6) No PS3 sixaxis function (but you can buy a PS2 tilt sensor accessory along with a PS2->PS3 controller adapter which would bring that PS3 function to the controller- albeit with a wire connected to it.)
7) Doesn't have the innate ability to rumble in PS3 games unless you use a proper PS2-to-PS3 controller adapter.
8) I like the way the Xbox 360 and Gamecube controllers have the left analog stick on the left side of the gamepad, but this controller putsthe sticks in the same position as the Sony controller, which- to me- isn't quite as good.
I love this controller because of the upsides, and all the downsides are things that most people can adapt to without much trouble. This is now my controller of choice for PS2 and PS3 games. Don't hesitate to pick one up!

REVIEW
Not my favorite product. The Thrustmaster Ferrari GT 2-in-1 Rumble Force Racing Wheel gave us one week of racing before falling apart. Fifty dollars is a lot to spend for one week's enjoyment. The quality is poor and the plastic snaps easily. If you are looking for a racing wheel, it would behoove anyone to shop around for something else. It might not be as inexpensive, but it probably won't be as cheap, either.

Piece of junk I applaud Amazon for their quick shipment, but this thing broke within a week of use!! The downshift lever made a popping sound, and that was it. It never worked again!.
I'm going back to a Logitech wheel. Logitech might cost more, but in my experience, it is a much better quality wheel.
