Nyko are set to provide the means to look like even more of a git than usual, with their new Wireless Nunchuck offering you complete unrestrained movement of your gangly, uncoordinated arms. Luckily, Nyko have thought about possible lawsuits and have included a Wiimote-style wrist strap. There is no word on pricing or a release date yet, but Nyko have said they will release that information at the next CES.

With Nintendo copping a lot of flack for the appearance of their Wii Zapper, you have to wonder what will happen when those “thinking of the children” see Nyko’s Perfect Shot Gun. While the gun adapter does look very cool, there is the niggling problem of pressing the A button which makes the device rather unwieldy. Unfortunately the Perfect Shot will not be out for Christmas but when it does hit early next year it will retail for $12.99.

We showed you the Nyko Wii Party Station a few months back - and couldn’t help but take the piss.

The punchline to the worst gaming accessory ever? After severely underestimating the cost of components, and failing to meet their desired US $25 price point, Nyko have scrapped the project entirely.
