 Not durable enough for normal gameplay June 2, 2008
I bought this because it was on sale and I soon realized why they were trying to get rid of them at the store.
You put your wii controller in this plastic cradle and then snap on the various extensions. My issue was that the extensions were held on by a really flimsy latch that felt like it was getting looser as you played. Eventually, the extension would just fly off.
After a few times of that happening to me, the part on the cradle that synchs to the extension broke off and went flying with the extension. I had to throw away all of the extensions because they were rendered usesless as the cradle was broken.
The bat and the tennis raquet were adequate, but the golf club gave me the fits. It telescopes down I'm assuming to make it easier to fit in the packaging. I didn't see any other reason why this would help anybody as the club is pretty short, even when fully extended. If you did have it telescoped down, it would fly out to full extension when you hit a shot which got annoying.
They did make it easier to play the wii sports games, but the flimsyness of the latching system makes this, in my opinion, a recipe for disaster.
 WII EXTRA TOYS FOR GAMES May 5, 2008
TO ALL WHO HAVE HAD YOUR BATS FLY APART AND BREAK, AND I GUESS SOME OF THE OTHER SPORTS EQUIPMENT,TOO ......MINE ALL HAVE LITTLE SCREWS HOLDING THE PLASTIC PIECES TOGETHER, THE BAT THEN IS SCREWED ON AND LOCKS ON THE SIDE, THIS IS NOT AN OFFICIAL WII PRODUCT....THEREFORE THEY ARE EXTREMELY FUN AND SAFE TO PLAY WITH...KEEPING THEM FROM A 5 STAR WAS THEY SURE COULD HAVE BEEN BIGGER...DO THEY THINK ONLY CHILDREN LIKE TOYS...I HAVE MORE THAN MOST KIDS...SO CHECK OUT OTHER SPORTS EQUIPMENT BESIDES WII...SORRY WII....

this is a great idea, but is totally a luxury. not nessecary to play, but they do add that extra resistance that you want. I is made of plastic so don't take'em out side for a sandlot baseball....
 Great idea, poor follow through March 4, 2008
Even though there is a lock on the bat, racket and club, they release when used... causing a bat, racket or club to go flying through the air. Not very good times when you have windows or a tv to the front or side of you. It's a great idea and lots of fun before they come unlocked. Would recommend purchasing a different version.
DO NOT BUY THIS ITEM! February 21, 2008

I received this product as a gift and thought it would be a lot of fun. However, the piece that attaches the bat, golf club, etc broke on first use. Despite swinging lightly (because I was nervous the attachment would fly off), the bat flung out and hit my wall. There is a dent in my wall now.... not happy about that. DO NOT BUY THIS ITEM. I don't understand how some people gave this product a 5 star rating. Imagine the golf club attachment launching off into your nice plasma tv... I was lucky it was just a wall.
