Customer Reviews
Works perfectly for me... Must be a lot of user error happening out there.
Took a chance on this guitar after reading the reviews, have had two of them for a little over a month now and absolutely no problems with them at all. The only thing that you have to remember is if you're using the guitar with RockBand 2 the selector has to be set to "Guitar Hero" mode, that's probably why so many people report it being defective. Easy fix, well worth the I paid for each guitar... saw this same guitar in a GameStop location yesterday, sells for .99 as of 6/29/09.
P.O.S.
Don't waste your time or your money! Sure is cheap but it does not sync worth a darn, and it is so poorly made (the pedal) that the button will cave in. Total time of ownership 10 mins (Including time to return). All I can say is at least Amazon has a good return policy. Just buy the name brand (Guitar Hero or Rock Band) it may cost you 4x as much, but it will work out of the box and get you rocking right away. Only reason it gets one star, they wouldn't let me give it a zero.
Horrible Product
It never connected wirelessly like it is "supposed" to do. The "foot-pedal" is the saddest excuse for a piece of technology I have ever seen. Yes, it was only . No, it is not worth that much --more like 13 cents. I tried every suggestion in the product manual to try and get this product to work, each to no avail.
I have been extremely disappointed in general with the technology used in GH controllers of late and I can only suggest that buying new might save you some headache.
So good I had to get two
I got the black model for me and was so pleased with it I got a white one for my wife, and switched it to the pink pick-guard. Having them both hanging on the wall near the PS3 looks really nice. As I wrote for the other guitar, this does everything you need, except maybe having a second set of fret buttons for my wife's small hands. For the great price, it's really a great guitar.
Great 2nd Guitar
Not near as good as the original guitars supplied with both Guitar Hero and Rock Band. But a great second guitar to be used for bass player or for a second guitar to be used occasionally by a friend. I definitely would not use this as my primary guitar, but okay to have sitting around when friends come over and you need an extra guitar. The price of a real Guitar Hero or Rock Band guitar is a lot more, and I wouldn't want to pay a bunch of money for a second guitar to sit around. But the FrontMan guitar is so inexpensive, it is a no-brainer to get one for a second guitar.

Good game
Bought this game for my 3, almost 4 year old and she loves it. Adults can play it too and it's not that bad. If you don't have kids you may not like playing it. If you do have kids then you turn into a softy and you'll like the game a lot.
Fun for everyone
Cars is a great game. I just recieved it in the mail a couple days ago and I couldn't put it down. At times it seems easy, but then it is also challenging at other times. It is also lots of fun to play with two players!
Great family game for the Xbox 360
I am typically a little more hardcore of a gamer than the likes of Cars. This game was purchased for my 5 year old, definitely not for me. But (true story) I played this game after I had surgery and was stuck in bed with nothing else to do for a few days. I ended up actually genuinely enjoying this game from start to finish.
I can't even really think of a 360 game that I had played before this one that I would even allow my son to watch me play. That being said, this game is innocent fun that the family can play together. The graphics are good, the gameplay is fun and surprizingly not as repetitive as you would think a kids racing game would be. 5 stars for a great family game.
Makes me want to watch the movie!
I rented this game recently and played it with little expectations. I was wrong though! This game was pretty challenging and kept my attention span until I beat it. I haven't seen the movie but it just makes me want to go out and get it. I would say it's better for younger ages but adults can get a kick out of it too.
Games...
I Picked this game up for my sone who is 7. We both like this game.

DO NOT BUY
As said, this is a 100% rip-off.
You can buy the nunchuck for 20 bucks and the 2000 Wii points card for 20 bucks. That will be 40 bucks.
This package is 48 dollars, I have no idea where the other 8 came from.
It is cheaper to just buy the two individually.
Not very good for 2 main reasons
This idea to combine the Wii Nunchuck and the Wii points card is not a good one especially if it costs .99 USD.
The 2 main reasons why this is a bad idea
1. They both cost USD individually.
2. Wii Points card is used for the Wii virtual console, Internet Channel, and other things that the Nunchuck isn't even used in. So a combo pack of 2 really makes no sense
I think I'll buy these individually.
RIP OFF!
don't buy its a ripoff
nunchuck=
2000 Wii points=
so total it should equaL
not
just buy them separate and you will save
Perfect!! Just in time for Christmas.
I was going to get my kid a nunchuck and a 2000 point card, separately, for Christmas. This will cost a little more than it would to buy the two separately, but this way not only do I save on wrapping paper, but I also free up some prime real estate under the tree. So it kinda evens out, right?
DO NOT BUY THIS PACKAGE!!!!
Why would you buy this?
1) The Nunchuck alone costs
2) For 2000 Wii Points, it costs
How do they get ? No clue, but this is a ripoff.
DO NOT BUY!

MY GUITAR
I ORDER A NEW GUITAR FOR MY GUITAR HERO GAME. IT WAS GREAT. I LOVE THE COLOR AND THE BUTTONS. THEY'RE SO COOL. I RECOMMENDED TO EVERYONE WHO NEEDS A NEW GUITAR. MINE IS BROKEN SO THAT'S WHY A ORDER A NEW ONE. IS AWESOME!!
Shredding The Wii Away?
Since Guitar Hero came out for the Wii last year, many gamers have been trying to find a substitute for the guitar add-on for the Wii version of Guitar Hero III and Guitar Hero: Aerosmith. The Wii Shredmaster wireless guitar, work well with the Wii controller and Guitar Hero games, but doesn't compare much to the actual price of the add-on guitar for the Wii title. Unfortunately, there is also one big problem. Unlike the Shredmaster editions that were made for the Xbox 360 and Playstation 3 systems, which also could be used to jam your way to that other great music game Rock Band as well, the Wii version is strictly for Guitar Hero games only. All in all, if you need an extra guitar to jam to for Guitar Hero, you're just better off with the one Les Paul autographed one for the Wii. It works better, but with the lack of playing Rock Band, just buying this one, would be just wishful thinking in rocking the Wii away.

fun for the whole family
I have to say after reading all the reviews I was not going to buy these pom poms, but I seen them in target for 13.98 figured i would buy them since they were on sale, then I noticed that it came with 2 wiimote adaptors and one nunchuck one, so I think they finally listened to the customers and fixed the problem of only 1 remote adaptor. I also have to say I tugged and pulled on the pom poms to be sure they would not fall out, and so far so good, nothing has fallen out.. All in all I think its a great product, the only thing negative I can think of is one is pink the other silver...my son wants to play but not with the pink one, so maybe they could make different colors, so people could at least order them in he colors they want.
This product and company both STINK!!!
I purchased these pom poms to go with my daughter's cheer game for her birthday. I was VERY disappointed. The pom poms completely block the sensor of the wii remote, thus making the product useless. She could not use them at all with the game. I contacted the company that made the item, HIP STREET, and they informed me that all of their products were tested and that they did in fact work with this game. They further were rude enough to point out that this was all my problem because no one else had complained about this item. I apparently, was supposedly the first one!! When I see the reviews I know that they must be LYING!! I contacted them again with this site and told them that I would NEVER again buy another one of their products. It is companies like this that should be forced out of business. They make useless products and then lie to their customers about them!!
DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY
Good idea, but doesn't work as it should when pom poms are attached to remotes. They broke up the Wii signal too much and ended up being thrown in the drawer.
Works for Me
I bought my pom poms from a store today, 2/6/07, and the set came with 2 wiimote adaptors and 1 nunchuk adaptor so it looks like they've caught on since Christmas. Thank goodness I waited til now to make the purchase or I would be upset too.
Great idea but do not work with Wii remotes
I purchased these for my daughter along with Wii All Star Cheer, the pom poms completely block the signal to the Wii and you cannot use them. They are a great idea and fit the remotes well but not practical.

Cool game
I'm loving the madagascar 2 game It's so fun I play it all day long.I even can't stop playing it.I can't live without it!.I would even want to say it's my favorite entertainment in the world.
Great for younger crowds
I picked this up wanting a game that wasn't about killing and fighting and something that young kids (7-10) could both master and enjoy. I'm not disappointed.
The game is obviously platformed for kids. It's not too difficult and actually acts as an excellent tutorial on working the controller's many buttons and levers.
Aside from the actual game, there's also a mini-arcade, which consists of several stand-alone games which can be played one by one or on a tournament basis. Up to eight players can play at one time.
The game allows you to chose between several characters and pick your own musical selections and locations, keeping it from getting too boring. If you're looking for something the whole family can enjoy, this is a good bet.
just not very fun
OK. Let me get this out. the movie was good. i liked it a lot. this game is not, but i mean, what else would you expect from a game based on a movie.
Graphics: just like a PS2 game unfortunatly
Gameplay: just so darn repetitive. the whole game is just go get this, go tie that, go find it kind of stuff. also, when playing as Melvin, the camera is so horrible that you can't see where your going
Lasting Appeal: with only 94 objectives in the game and it takes only 10 minutes to do 14, it's not much fun
but overall this is just a game to play if you liked the movies alot.

Eh?!?
Well, this game wasn't the greatest...First off if you were picturing somthing like Ecco or Jaws, forget it. This game you get a side view of Shamu and there is this manatee that has a very annoying voice... Plus you get a list of "Animal Behaviors" but you can't perform any of the opes(about half)that make you push more than three buttons in a row. I would say save your money(luckily I got mine used for .00) and buy Ecco the Dolphin: Defender of the Future or Jaws: Unleashed.

Heavy duty! Great!
I have had a Wii for a while and it was fine sitting next to my TV on the TV stand. But I saw this for a B001ARV48O at a garage sale and couldn't pass it up! It's very heavy duty and very stable!!! Against a wall, there's not much of a chance of it tipping over! I'm not sure it's worth +, but it's great! Any die-hard Wii player should have one! :)
Wii Gaming Stand
I LOVE this game stand!!! For one, the shipping was EXTREMELY fast and the product came in great condition and is GREAT quality. EVERY person who owns a Wii should own one!
Awesome Item
Love this idea of this tower, even though they were bought at JcPenney's it's not the sellers fault but I wish there was a door on this shelf and possibly a lock due to the smaller kids getting into the games and pulling out and scratching them.
