Have the controller ordered and get delivered within one week, much earlier than the delivery date specified. Connecting to the Wii works perfectly and the controller also work great, even with Nunchuk (we'll see how long will this). The controller has not a super pure white as a color, but for the price you can not complain! For battery drain, I can say that you can play at the 20Stunden with normal batteries. To what extent are different controller originals from it, I do not know. Anyway, I'm very satisfied. Therefore, 5 stars and buy recommendation!
