you know, maybe I should buy from amazon because I bought from them after all, but for some weird reason I could never find good reviews for the nunchuc, as if the real this doesn't exist :/
How come you don't just return the fake controller? My point still stands, people went to a REAL store and bought an iPad or a PS4 and went home and got rocks. Albeit, it was in the US not Kuwait, maybe they can still take it back?

Are you looking at Amazon.kw or Amazon.com? Perhaps there isn't any real stuff on Kuwait Amazon lol?

I think this one for the WiiU pro is good?
I can't find a Nunchuk seller that doesn't have a million 1 star reviews saying it crapped out on buyers after a week or two or that they're fake wth...
Also I have no idea if you were trying to get a discount because the Pro I posted is full MSRP of $60USD

I would imagine buying from Amazon would be one of the safest options, especially if you can buy one that is fulfilled directly by Amazon and not the third-party. Not sure how it works for you in Kuwait, though 
Are WiiU controllers region locked? Maybe you could have someone ship a legit one to you.

I don't think accessories are region locked~
I think I've decided to buy a pro controller from amazon
but I just CAN'T find a nunchuc, I don't care if it's new or used of how much it costs as long as it's the real thing :C

I wish I had a teleporter. I have 3 or 4 nunchucks (Nintendo Official) that I never ever use.

Two I got in a bundle when the original Wii came out and the other two were also from the original Wii package, but from a friend who busted their Wii and had no use for them afterwards.

hmm that might actually solve my problem (buying a wii)~
do you suggest I buy the original wii? does it come with a nunchuc?

Brand new, mine came with nunchucks. For a used one (which I figure is all you would find now anyway), I'd assume it would come with a wii mote and nunchuck, but I guess that would differ from seller to seller. Did a quick eBay search and most of the Wiis for sale have them included in the price. There is a chance they aren't legit ones, though. Hard to say, unless it's a really trusted seller.

I don't really trust Ebay, I heard some scary stories >.>

Yeah, eBay can be tricky. I've never had any problems, but I haven't bought anything super valuable from there either. If you can find a seller that also has a website, it's a good sign. Normally if they have a presence like that, you can get free purchase protection if you pay via PayPal. Google has a similar buyer protection program, but I've never used it.

Just came across this website. Not sure if it is anything you would be interested in, but it is supposed to make it so you can buy from U.S. stores and have items shipped to Kuwait.

If you buy the wii for the remote and nunchuck make sure it's a Wii U remote motion plus one.
The old Wii remote will work on most of the game for the Wii U. But some need the Wii U remote motion plus one.
My package for the WiiU pro controller looks just like yours. I got the smash brothers Wii U controller for Christmas. My children got me a Peach one. You can also use your game cube remote but you need adapter for it to work. The adapter was almost the price as the smash brother Wii U Pro controller.

In all honesty I only want the nunchuck to play mario galaxy 1+2 and maybe zelda skyward sword if I ever bought that game. Im thinking of buying wii mini but im not sure if it comes with the right accessories
I would just recommend buying from Amazon.
Sure, you might "not trust them", but despite the scare stories that get thrown around I've not personally known anybody to get screwed by Amazon. The worst they've ever done to me is my package arrive a bit late, but it was still what I ordered. They really don't screw things up as much as myths say so, it's just that unhappy customers are much more vocal about their 'unhappiness' than happy customers are about how pleased they were.
Just make sure it's the right product. It's quite easy to tell it is because;
- it says 'by Nintendo' under the item name.
- there should be a good amount of ratings and they SHOULD be high.
- Genuine items are usually at the top/close to the top of search results.
- Genuine items usually have quite a few 'new & preowned' of the item.
If there's any actual problems with it (I.E fake) they should and will refund or replace it. They kind of have to.
I would link you to the Wiimote and Nunchuck I bought last month, but it's Amazon UK (you said you don't order from there)
This.
Motion plus is in newer Wiimotes by default. If you get one without it, you're going to have to buy an extra (and ugly) addon as well.
Out of curiosity, if you have a Wii U why buy the Wii mini? Just so you know the stuff it comes with is 'legit'?

exactly, I have a wii u and I don't really want the wii mini, I just want the "legit" accessories if they come with it
and I would buy from amazon UK if they deliver to where I live
I already have one wiimote with motion plus, I wouldn't mind another though
I think the pro controller is kinda easy to find but not the nunchuc..
you said you could provide me with a link where I can buy a good nunchuc, it has to be real in order for the game to even be playable....

The thing to watch out for Amazon is the fact that the default seller listed for items isn't always Amazon. Your item will always be real if you buy it from Amazon themselves. The way you do that is under the price, where it says if it's in stock or not, it will say who it ships from. If it says "Ships from and sold by Amazon" or something similar, then you will get a real one for sure. If it says that it is coming from someone else, then it may or may not be real.
