The body of the Nunchuk measures 4.45 inches (113 mm) long, 1.5 inches (38 mm) wide, and 1.48 inches (37 mm) thick.<ref>Nintendo of Japan (www.nintendo.co.jp). "[http://www.nintendo.co.jp/wii/controllers/index.html コントローラ - Wii]".</ref>
 
The Nunchuk is generally available in white and black. Cyan-colored Nunchuks were available in Japan as a prize for a contest used to promote ''[[Wii Sports Resort]]''. Red Nunchuks are bundled with the red Mario anniversary Wii console and [[Wii Mini]]. A gold Nunchuk was offered to [[Club Nintendo]] members for a limited time to complement ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword]]''{{'}}s gold Wii Remote Plus.
 
There are several unofficial wireless versions of the Nunchuk. They connect to the Wii Remote via a wireless adapter hooked into the cord input on the bottom of the Wii Remote, the signal is sent from the bottom of the Nunchuk to the hooked-in adapter on the remote.
 
In one conference, it was stated that [[Retro Studios]] helped design the Nunchuk because the Remote on its own would not be able to play ''[[Metroid Prime 3: Corruption]]''. In the game, [[Samus Aran]]'s movement is controlled via the joystick, and the C button allows her to morph in and out of [[Morph Ball]] mode. The Z button locks Samus' point of vision, or locks onto an enemy target if one is in Samus' view. The Nunchuck is also used to fire the [[Grapple Lasso]], by casting the NuchuckNunchuk forward to Grapple a target, and by flicking the Nunchuk backwards to remove the target. This is used to remove a variety of obstacles, including shields, debris and other things.
 
In 2008, a wireless Nunchuk was released by [[Nyko]], and it synchronizes to a Wii Remote by attaching a wireless dongle to the Wii Remote itself.<ref>Greenwald, Will (January 7, 2008).
