Lots of space
 
Review Date: December 3, 2009
Reviewer: T. Wheatley,
This case is a great case for the Wii. It has lots of space, compared to another case we tried.

The one big drawback is the large compartment clumps everything together and it kind of makes a tangled mess when you have everything in there.

Other than that, it's pretty good.
wii G-pak ,good buy

Reviewer: Joshua Peich,
all you need to trasport and store your wii. room for two controlers,two nunchucks, sensor bar, cords, console, plenty of games and maybe a little more. back side velcros open to run cords easily without having to remove console. good amount of padding to. my only gripe would be the strap that holds the console in place is nt the best allowing it to float around alittle, but not to bad. over all not perfect but for the price i would buy again.
What you see is what you get!

Love this case! It has so much more room than anything I have found. Again, great case for taking the Wii on vacation or anywhere.
Really can't ask for much more
 
Review Date: May 6, 2009
Reviewer: S. Nellis,
I originally bought a Wii Pro Gamer's Case, and it was great when I just had the console and a couple Wiimotes. As soon as I got a few accessories, I realized I needed something that could fit more stuff. The local Circuit City was having a going-out-of-business sale, and I decided to give this a shot [...]. I'm very glad I did.

The pack is two-level: about half of the top level is a space for the Wii console itself. It has two L-shaped brackets that conform to two corners of the console and a velcro strap that holds it in those brackets. The lower level is just an enclosed space that can hold anything from Wiimotes to game cases to Classic Controllers. There is a game holder on the roof of the pack that can hold 20+ games if you don't already have a binder.

The build quality seems to be above average and the zippers, while not heavy-duty like a good duffel bag, are better and thicker than most other cases I've seen. The shoulder sling is a little thin, but considering its maximum load will probably be around ten pounds, it will easily do the job.

There are complaints that the lower level should be compartmentalized. I don't know about others, but mine came with a piece of padding with velcro on the top and bottom that allows me to cordon off the lower level into two compartments. Not only does this let me separate different components, it also better supports the middle of the upper level tray that some have said can bend. I have not noticed any bending in the tray.

One of the nice things about the foldaway outer covering is that the sides fall away from the main body when the pack is opened. This allows you to load things in pretty tightly, and then when the pack is zipped up, everything gets compressed just a little more, keeping tension on it while traveling. Properly packed, this almost completely keeps items from shifting around during travel.

Now the eternal question with something like this: how to you pack everything up to maximize what you can hold? Here's how I do mine:
- The console itself goes in the space reserved for it. Duh.
- Put the four controllers next to the console on the top level. Facing the pack from the front, lay three Wiimotes (with sleeves) vertically in a row alternating tops and bottoms. This leaves just enough room to put the fourth Wiimote horizontally in front of them. This configuration has the bonus that the buttons basically never get pushed unless you absolutely mash something on top of the pack.
- The sensor bar goes to the left of the console.
- The travel A/V cable gets folded up and goes all the way across the back of the lower level.
- The two Classic Controllers (with their cables wrapped around them) go vertically on the left side of the lower level (they should pretty much go all the way from front to back).
- The four Nunchucks get put on the right side of the lower level.
- The power brick goes in the very front of the lower level.
- The game binder gets put on top of the console and Wiimotes.

This fits the important things pretty snugly while leaving room in the bottom for more accessories. Since I bought two Wii Motion Pluses, the new sleeves and attachments go on two of the Wiimotes on top while the extra sleeves go in the bottom compartment.

Pros
- Fits the console, sensor bar, four Wiimotes (including two with Motion Plus attachments), two Classic Controllers, four nunchucks, A/V cable, power brick, and games
- Build quality is above average
- Nylon external walls flex to absorb shocks
- Internals held together by velcro, so customizable

Cons
- Shoulder sling is a little thin
- If you plan to play while the console is still in the pack, the whole thing is too large to fit on most entertainment centers.
- Front pocket is flush, so it can't hold anything much bulkier than a game case.

Wish I could give 4.5 stars, but in my experience, it's closer to a 5 than a 4. The Wii has been my first foray into trying to set up a mobile gaming system. This pack has been a central part of that, and if you're doing the same, you could read my how-to guide here: [...]

You get what you pay for. . .
 
Review Date: March 1, 2010
Reviewer: Magical Mischief Maker, USA
I bought this armband for my daughter's new Ipod to use at the gym. Two of the velcro circles used to attached the arm band have already come off after only 1 week of use. You get what you pay for. Not much.
Unbeatable Value for Money
 
Review Date: February 10, 2010
Reviewer: SanjeevP, Michigan, USA
iPod Nano 5 G fits perfectly but without a case. There is no opening for camera, the function that you will not be using inside the armband anyway. Touch controls take a little effort through the clear plastic cover. But it is great value for money. At Apple store and web site, arm bands for iPod cost 12 times more. Since I did not buy those I can't tell you if those are better but you can definitely replace this one 12 times over for the price of armband at Apple!
All the velcro came off
 
Review Date: February 7, 2010
Reviewer: D. Furman, NJ USA
After the second time using this armband at the gym the velcro started coming off. This rendered the product useless. The armband velco is glued on with a very weak adhesive and it just stared to fall apart. Please don't waste your money on this product. I have no idea why this product has such a good rating.
