THRUSTMASTER® LAUNCHES ITS RANGE OF ACCESSORIES FOR Wii™
 
Nintendo® has introduced the world to the new generation of video gaming with the launch of Wii. The Wii has totally revolutionized the way the consumer plays video games and has completely widened the demographic of those who enjoy them.
 
Thrustmaster has developed accessories to help gamers get the most from the Wii Remote and Nunchuck, therefore enhancing and extending play of this radical console to ensure the fun never stops.
 
 
PROTECT YOUR PLAY!
T-Protect NW, Price: $9.99  
(Available in black and white)
 
We’ve all read the news surrounding Wii mishaps including stories of people accidentally throwing controls at pets and smashing their TV screens from overzealous gaming. Well, Thrustmaster has taken it upon itself to develop an answer!
 
The T-Protect NW gives your Wii Remote and Nunchuck maximum protection from wear and tear, while optimizing gaming comfort. The slick silicone casing offers better grip to prevent the controller from slipping from your hand and damaging your home. This is the indispensable protection accessory for your Wii Remote, Nunchuck, not to mention your home!

CAREFUL!
T-Care NW, Price: $14.99
(Available in white only)
 
The days of getting your wires crossed are over!
 
The T-Care NW storage stand takes care of the Wii Remote and a Nunchuk, with no wires left in your way. It slides discretely next to your console, completely blending into its environment, and thanks to its refined design this is the perfect matching accessory for your Wii.
 
Another great feature of this sleek accessory is that you’ll never lose your controller as you’ll always know where it is. The Nunchuk’s wire is stored in the stand so you’ll never be tangled again. Once you’ve taken it out, just connect and start playing. Less time untangling, more time gaming!
 
PS: T-Care NW also comes with a set of silicone protectors for one Wii Remote and one Nunchuk.
