Wii Airplane Controller brings more needless plastic into your life
What makes this so comical to us is how the nunchuk and Wiimote are situated in their plastic device in the way that we naturally hold them anyway. So, what is the point for such an accessory? There really isn't one, we imagine, but like the kid that was dropped off right at the front of the school and had to kiss his mom goodbye back in our younger days, we felt the need to point and laugh at this thing.
Even if the thing is only $13, we can't imagine anyone actually needing or wanting it.

You could fly with your feet like real pilots.

That's not true. Their AutoPilot balloon flies the plane.

My friend would want it, his complaint was that having the two ends of the controller tethered together like that would cripple traditional controls using the Wiimote and Nunchuck
This will stabilize that, although it would basically only be applicable for Brawl

Meh, I always wanted to see a controller configuration in a flight sim where you hold the Wiimote upright like a joystick and the nunchuk sideways to act like a throttle.
