    The Other View
    The XL+ is one bad ass mofo of a controller. And it controls so well. I'm not the biggest fan of third party controllers, but i was quite impressed with how well the XL+ handled.

    “At first, I thought I would rather just pay the extra $5 and get the real Nintendo controller, but after using the Wii™ Premium Remote XL+ controller, I have changed my mind.” http://www.i4u.com/42217/snakebyte-wii-premium-remote-xl-controller-review

    The “Premium Remote XL+” is not just a Wii™ remote, but it comes built in to it with the MotionPlus hardware, + 5 more feet of range, rechargeable Ni-MH batteries and a USB charging cable included, and a retail price of $39.99. So for the same price of your normal Wii™ controller you are already saving $20.00 with the MotionPlus already added on.

    "This controller does absolutely everything that one could ask for, all for a very cheap price. When you consider the cost of an official Wii™ controller, an official MotionPlus attachment and a large pack of AA batteries, you will soon realize that paying a one-off fee is an ideal solution to your problems. If you play the Nintendo Wii™ very often, there is no doubt that investing in a pair of snakebyte™ Premium Remote XL+ controllers is a must.  http://www.consolegaming.eu/review.php?id=306

    The Wiimote, many people were taken a back when Nintendo announced this redesign of a peripheral that has been around since before the company was making video games. That’s right kids Nintendo used to be a card game company, but outside of the history lesson here, they “revolutionized” the design of the video game controller when they announced the Wii™  http://dmonkeystudios.squarespace.com/tgg/2010/10/17/a-better-mouse-trap.html#entry9212162

    "The design is far more efficient, and the functionality is on par, if not better than that of the Wii™ MotionPlus. If you need to get a new Wii™ remote – seriously consider the Remote XL for your next purchase."  http://www.avault.com/reviews/seal-of-excellence/snakebyte-wii-premium-remote-xl-review/

    “The $10 you save off the price of the official Wii™-mote will be the deciding factor for almost anyone choosing between the XL+ and the Wii™ Remote Plus, as they perform equally as well. Obviously, the recharging capabilities help make this more attractive financially and economically, especially since there’s no need for a dock.” http://www.videogametalk.com/reviews/1118/snakebyte-premium-remote-xl/

    “Sunflex USA brings the latest in Wii™ remote technology-the Premium Remote XL+ and in the process, proves that third party companies can indeed make high quality peripherals for the Nintendo Wii™. Unlike the average controller for the Nintendo Wii™ console, this nifty piece of hardware syncs easier with a convenient synchronization button at the top, and happens to be a bit easier to well, control.” http://reviewfix.com/2010/11/new-third-party-wiimote-worth-biting-into/

    “Even before I plugged in snakebyte’s Premium Remote XL+ remote controller for Wii™, I was pretty much sold. Simply put, the XL+ resolves pretty much all the major issues you might have with your Wii™ Remote Controller: MotionPlus is built in, it is rechargeable using a standard USB cable and a Sync button is on the outside instead of inside the battery case.” http://www.gamertell.com/gaming/comment/snakebyte-premium-remote-xl-plus-rechargeable-remote-controller-for-wii/

    The most important aspect was gameplay and that is where I could not see a difference between the original and the snakebyte, which is a great thing.  To make things even better the remote is about 20 dollars less than the Orginal Wii™ remote with MotionPlus built in.  Add that together with seamless game play, intelligent additions and all the other similarities with the original controller I am hard press not to recommend the snakebyte Premium Wii™ remote to anyone. http://www.dancinghotdogs.com/?p=2926
