-The only ones I've tried are the first type. The form-factor of the official shell is good for some games, like the [[Sega Model 2]] ports.

The form-factor of the official shell is good for some games, like the [[Sega Model 2]] ports. For other stuff I tend to use a little Nyko pistol shell with an uncomfortably wide grip. There are now some clones with the same design.

 +  * There's a paintbrush-shaped nunchuck for that //Epic Mickey// game.
 +  * There's a [[wp>Sonic_screwdriver|sonic screwdriver]] wiimote for //[[wp>Doctor_Who|Dr. Who]]//.

 +== Shells ==

 +  * There's a bowling ball-shaped wiimote shell.
 +  * There's a pair of dumbbells, dunno if they have any extra weight.
 +  * //Cooking Mama// and //Trauma Center// have similar Wiimote shell sets. One part is a swiss-army-knife type thing with multiple implements, the other is a flat thing that makes sense as a frypan, but for //Trauma Center/// I dunno what it's even supposed to be.
 +  * [[Thrustmaster]] made a lightsabre one.
 +  * There are pom-poms!
 +  * I found a pic of a boxing glove that doesn't even look real, let alone comfortable.
 +  * There's a 'airplane controller stand' that I'd like. Not sure what games it'd work well with though.
