Phube Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 Right... I've been playing Nintendo Land a lot with my 3 year old and we are absolutely loving it. The problem is (and this is ironic considering some criticisms of the WiiU) my daughter can use the Wii U Gamepad like a pro; touches, swipes, buttons and analogue sticks. But she cannot use a WiiRemote (either for motion nor the D-Pad) possibly just too abstract for her tiny, little brain - she is a girl after all! (JOKE!) This causes problems especially in Mario Chase, Luigi's Ghost Mansion and Animal Crossing Sweet Day. As she can only play well as Mario and the Ghost - less said about the Guards the better! But she does want to play as the Toads, Ghost Hunter etc... but gets shockingly frustrated... So Short story made really long: My aged brain is telling me that there was an accessory years ago for the Wii Remotes that you clipped the D-Pad section effectively turning it into an analogue stick. No when I was young free and errr still attached I laughed at such invention but now... But buggered if I can find one anywhere... Any help anywhere or is my brain playing tricks on me?

JamieDaCosta Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 I can't say I remember such an accessory although I couldn't possibly say for sure..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V. Amoleo Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 I can't ever remember seeing one for the Wii Remote but there was one for the old PS1 non-analogue controller years and years ago. So there's a chance something like that exists! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
