Good day for all! Today I bought a Wii U remote. Joy knew no bounds, as according to the seller, this is the latest model. It looks pretty official. But looking closely at button A, I was stumped. It was not transparent and the letter A was printed on top of the button. I had a question for knowledgeable people and just those who have black Wii U remote. Does my remot look original? Were there such original Wii U remotes? On the network I did not find a single picture or video of the same remote as mine. But I found common resemblances of this black remote with Hero remotes of Mario, Luigi and other characters. They have almost the same marking of plastic and visible parts of the boards. A button is also not transparent. Next Nintendo Heroes Remotes
My black remot is very similar to the original. Made very high quality, there is even a microscopic letter ® after the inscription Nintendo on the rear cover of the remote control. Incredibly small ®. But the non-transparent button A just blows my roof!

Please help me with this question. Its fake? I really need your help!

Now I will tell you the end of the story, which will explain everything at once. The seller promised to return the money back to me if I wanted, but ultimately refused it. He just tricked me, which again confirms that this remoot is fake. At the remote itself, I noticed something else that indicates that it is fake. The color of the LEDs is slightly different from the original and the quality of the plastic as a whole is much worse than the original. My opinion is that it was made at the same factory in China where the official Remotes were made. They used official boards, but shoved them into a cheap shell. At least the board is of very good quality. Remote works great, but I think that it will not last long. Friends, thank you all for your attention, all the best!

My Wii-Motes are not all the same and have subtle differences. Nintendo changed the parts on them all the time on different models.

If the Wii-Mote works on Nintendon't (or other homebrew) it is most likely real; is my best test.

All the Wii-motes you posted look real to me. But fakes get better all the time. But if it works and has no problems does it really matter if it's a fake or not?
