Ce'Nedra, my granddaughter has just about worn out the strap on my Wii game controller, so I will soon need to look at replacing it.

The Wii is a fantastic gaming platform and the Wii controllers allwo for precision gameplay.

Wii Nunchuk Controller

The Wii Nunchuk Controller is used in conjunction with the Wii Remote and is easily connect through the expansion port. When the two are combined, the two controllers combine to become your sword and shield to combat charging assailants and much more.

The Wii Remote and Nunchuk Controller are relatively dependent on each other and you can hold each controller in whichever hand is most comfortable. The ambidextrous design gives greater control over gameplay.

The Wii Nunchuk has the same motion-sensing technology as the Wii Remote controller,but with an analog stick to assist with character movement,

In several games, you can use the analog stick to move your playable character, while the Wii Remote performs a specific action, such as throwing a pass or aiming a weapon.

Contoured perfectly to fit in the palm of your hand, the Nunchuk Controller is equipped with conveniently located buttons for lightning-quick access.

Please not that the Wii Remote is not included and the picture is provided to show how the Nunchuk is used in combination with the controller.

Brand Depot Shopping - Canberra

We have discovered a great place to shop for bags, shoes, books, clothing and household goods.

Brand Depot is situated out near the Canberra Airport and is well worth a visit.

I recently purchased 3 handbags, 6 pairs of shoes and some aromatherapy items for unbelievably inexpensive prices. There are a number of shops selling the same type of item but not the same products, if that makes sense. So there may be 5 shoe shops but each stock different styles of shoes and boots. Its amazing.

There is a shuttle bus that runs from Brand Depot into Canberra City but the centre is easily accessible from all over Canberra and the outlying districts.

We have been a few times now and pick up bargains each time we go, and there are more and more shops opening all the time.

Paula and I only recently purchased the xbox live, mainly because of the Gears of War game, which by the way is awesome.

So we now have all three gaming platforms, the Wii, a PS3 and the xbox. We also have a Nintendo DS for when we go travelling. So I guess you could say we are set for gaming.
