Store page
(ETA: It's a Wireless Wii Nunchuck, I'm looking for the brand)
I tried Googling the name and came up with nothing. Now, this store routinely uses bizarre names for its products, and often doesn't bother to mention the company behind them, so it's probably called something else officially - I just can't find it. It's not the Nyko version as far as I can see.
Helpies?

According to Amazon, it's made by Neutac.

Long ago in a distant land, I, Aku, the shape-shifting Master of Darkness, unleashed an unspeakable evil,
but a foolish samurai warrior wielding a magic sword stepped forth to oppose me. Before the final blow
was struck, I tore open a portal in time and flung him into the future, where my evil is law! Now, the fool
seeks to return to the past, and undo the future that is Aku...

And doesn't seem to be reviewed anywhere. Damn.
There's a few models out, it seems; I thought Nyjo was the only one to try it, but Amazon lists models from at least one other manufacturer. I'm going to get a second Nunchuck anyway, so I figured if it was good enough, I might get the wireless, especially since it costs the same as the official version, or near enough at least.
"Incroyable"Whoa, what? Wireless nunchuks? Encroyable!

I ended up getting the Nyko version. First impressions:Put up the review here when you find it, Bounty?
- Setup is easy, although the two instruction sheets contradict each other; one says you just wait for the blinky light to stop, the other says you have to press the blinky light to sync. Once I got them synced, the connection was pretty solid. The Wiimote feels a bit funny with the extra bulk of the transmitter attached to it, but it doesn't change the way you handle it.
- Turning off the nunchuck seems to freeze the Wiimote. Unplugging the transmitter fixes this.
- The nunchuk itself feels like a slightly beefier version of the original. The stick isn't bad, but the buttons have a bit less "give" than the official version, making them feel sticky. It responds just find, the original nunchuck is just more comfortable.
I don't know about battery life yet.
