Got a Nintendo Wii? Then you’ll know it’s the ultimate Christmas day console, with games the whole family can play.

If you want to make the Nintendo Wii more fun, there are plenty of accessories you can buy. We’ve picked out some of the best. Here’s our top 5 Wii accessories for Christmas.


Wii MotionPlus

There is no more Wii accessory more essential than Wii MotionPlus. It’s basically an attachment that docks onto the bottom of a Wii Remote, enhancing its sensitivity to provide proper 1:1 motion control. You’ll need it to get the most out of games such as The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword. Speaking of which…


The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword Limited Edition Gold Wii Remote Bundle

If you haven’t already purchased a copy of The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword, get to it right now. It’s one of the best Zelda games ever made. Or even better, get hold of this limited edition bundle that comes with a special edition gold Wii Remote complete with legendary signature Triforce motif.

Official House of the Dead Overkill Hand Cannon


The Living Dead blast-em-up House of the Dead Overkill has zombie-walked its way onto Nintendo Wii. To get the most from it equip this official House of the Dead Overkill Cannon. The Wii Remote gently docks into the top of it to offer better aim. But of course the real reason for owning one is for how much cooler it looks than shooting with a Wii Remote.


iBox Nintendo Wii Motion Plus Charging Dock Station

With all that Nintendo Wii gaming action you’re going to need some batteries. A better solution is to grab some rechargeable batteries, and then combine them with this iBox Dual twin Motion Plus Charging Dock so that come Christmas day you’ll never run out of juice.
