Knock-Off WiiMote Plus

Has anyone had experience with the dealextreme or ebay knockoff wiimote pluses? I'd rather not spend $40 on a legit wiimote plus if a knock-off one works too.

You might be taking a risk with a non-Nintendo made Wiimote. Spending the extra cash on a Nintendo Wiimote will ensure that it will work. It's up to you.

I heard the deal extreme ones don't work for crap, your way better off buying official nintendo stuff, the quality is superior and you will have zero problems with it, I just made the investment today and I have to tell ya, I will never use a third party nintendo controller again!!!

I got two DX wiimotes, and except the little brighter LEDs there is nothing I could distinguish the fake ones from the originals I have.
No difference in sensitivitiy both for gyroscope and IR.
I would always buy the dx ones angain

Can you link me to the ones you bought? It seems like many of these knock off ones are hit and miss for dolphin
