Just wondering...will the wireless nunchuk work when it's tucked into the leg strap?? I've heard that it needs to be pointed at the screen in order work function properly. I'd like to get one since the cord seems to get in the way a lot, but I don't want to spend the money only to discover that it won't work for some exercises.

Thx!

I was thinking about this today as the cord between them kept hitting me in the face when doing the work out

I have a wireless nunchuck, I'll test it out when I get home and will report back.

would love to know this too. Yes, the cord is always getting in the way, especially with jumps, tennis, etc.

I have the wireless Nyko nunchuk. I haven't tried to tuck it into the pouch because all of the tucking and untucking is kind of annoying to me. So, what I have been doing is tucking the wired nunchuk into the pouch at the beginning of the workout and leave it there. When I do exercises that require the nunchuk to be in the leg strap I plug in the wired nunchuk. Exercises that the nunchuk is out of the pouch I switch to the wireless nunchuk. I make sure to tuck part of the dangling wire from the wired nunchuk into the pouch so it isn't swinging around. I have had no connection issues with the wireless nunchuk at all. I love it, especially for the boxing!

My wireless nunchuk works fine both in the pouch and out...haven't had a problem with it yet.

I bought a wireless nunchuck, but I just noticed that will be way to big to fit in the sleeve. Do they make other ones that are the same size as the original?

I have a wireless set, found at K-Mart for 9dollars. of course it is an off brand but it works great and no wires hit my face.

Well I looked around and couldn't find a wireless nunchuck that was the same size as the wired one so I'm just going to make due by switching off and/or making workouts that I don't have to switch between wired and wireless.

I bought Nyko's Kama wireless yesterday and it's great! It will fit in the leg strap pocket but it is a very tight fit. I think it's easier to leave the wired one in the pocket and use that for leg-focused exercises like lunges and running then switch to the wireless for exercises that focus on your arms. It's one less thing to get tangled in the resistance band. I'm very happy with it.

I bought the nyko?(?) wireless nunchuck and it doesn't work! specifically when doing squats and lunges it just doesn't seem to recognize the movements half the time.

I don't have any trouble with my wireless. I need to work a little more at fitting it in the pocket, but it works great.

I have a nyko wireless controller which works okay.

Sometimes on the running my Avatar slows down and will eventually pick up the pace. Based on this, I was thinking of having the wired controller in the pocket and the wireless for the other exercises

This is something I am seriously considering. The wire drives me crazy, whacking myself in the face with it and some of the exercises are hard as the cord just isn't long enough! I have to go look for one but nice to have some brands to look for.
