Amazing Fan Made Nunchuck

DjinnJanuary 13th, 2012 by Djinn

Reddit user alycenwonderland recently posted pics of their own hand painted gold nunchuck with Hylian Crest. Since the official gold nunchuck is only available in Japan through Club Nintendo they have painted their own ordinary white nunchuck to match the limited edition gold Wiimote that was available in North America. Along with the gold cover they also painted an accurate white Hylian Crest on the top of the nunchuck. Jump inside to check out a few pics.

This is a very creative answer to the original gold Wiimote and ordinary nunchuck situation. Even though there are a few gold nunchucks available through Club Nintendo Japan this person took it upon themselves to make one of their own. I especially like the Hylian Crest on the top of it. I actually wish the Club Nintendo one came with something like that. It looks so plain with just the gold color and no detail. I might make my own after seeing this.

So what do you think? Did you like the nunchuck? Are you inspired to paint one of your own?? Let us know in the comments below.

    What kind of paint would one use? One that doesn’t peel off easily.

    • Guest

      model paint, you can get it at a craft store

      • Guest

        I don’t think she used paint at all. It looks more like a sticker. I have one just like it on my laptop. 

        • Andyvargas159951

          First of all it’s clearly painted.
          Second, please direct me to the website that has a full body LOZ sticker for the nunchuk.

            I’m pretty sure that it is a vinyl sticker, and that it is not painted

          • GRV

            The Crest is a Vinyl sticker but the gold looks painted

  • Cyber Falcon

    Why aren’t the wires gold?

    • http://twitter.com/Oskr_Andrade Oscar Andrade

      Too much gold is bad.

    • Anonymous

      Also the wiimote is gold and white so if the nunchuck was completey gold including wires and all. It wouldnt match the wiimote as much

    • Mdk Harms

      Because the gold paint would crack and look terrible once you flexed the cord

  • skybird11

    he could make a few bucks off those

  • Dragon Master

    I would totally buy one if they were selling.

  • http://twitter.com/Kikirini Kikirini

    That looks amazing!
    I emailed NoA’s Club Nintendo recently about it, and they said they keep requests available to all departments, so… it’s worth emailing in and saying you want the gold nunchuck. :)

    Wish I knew how to get mine custom-made. =/

    And yes, the cord should be gold as well.

    This individual has posted a link on that reddit post if anyone would like to buy it:
    http://www.etsy.com/listing/90309104/custom-painted-zelda-inspired-triforce 

    It’s $50 plus an additional $5 shipping.

    • Mrgaful

  • Jacob Welch

    Cmon, someone here must have seen this on Reddit a few days ago

    • Anonymous

      Yep, I saw it too.
      (Don’t you just feel like a hipster? =P)

  • Son of a Zora

    Looks good

  • Heriod77777

    Its looks cool! For some reason my computer said no comments posted and I read more ( skimmed a bit) but then all these come through. I like the Numchuk, it could be less gold and match the Wii Remote though.

  • Tingle Tingle Kooloolimpah!!

    Drooling…… SO AWESOME!! Wish i had one……

  • Anonymous

    It’s great individually, but when you think about it with the gold Wii Remote, it’s not as good then. Just visualize it, and you might see it too.

  • Shana

    Neh, I prefer my wireless nunchuck :D

  • Anonymous

    I saw the picture and was so excited that they released one! OH well. 
    This is still really awesome. Great work!

  • fused_shadows

    One question:

    DUDE How much do you want for it?

  • Anonymous

    Is it just me, or does it look like the hylian crest is ingraved into the nunchuk.

  • Japas

    This is so cool! The only problem is I would probably ware the paint off the control stick:)

  • Guest

    wow sweet. i would definatly buy this!

  • Bringtinglecharts

    Gonna paint nunchuck.

    ゼルダの伝説 FTW!

  • RaymanFan1

    They could make some serious cash out of this (provided people supply their own nunchucks)

  • awsomeMrlink

    too bad I’m horrible at every thing artistic(usually). This looks better then club Nintendo’s….

  • avalpsychicguy

    Meh, I prefer my wireless nunchuck I got for Christmas in addition to Skyward Sword.  Gives me a lot more comfort.

  • Anonymous

    Sweet nunchuck :D

  • Yolink

    Where do i get mine :D

  • mel-true-hero-of-time

    looks cool, I’m trying to figure out how to get my white nunchuck open.  The screws look like a phillips head but with 3 prongs or whatever instead of 4.  So idk.

    • Izzy4684

      yup. all controllers after the n64 and the portable systems use the triwing screw. you need a really thin and small flat head to unscrew it but its a bitch. they have them on ebay.
       

      • mel-true-hero-of-time

        bought one on amazon for 1 cent, plus 2.98 shipping. ganna be totally worth it.  I prob wont paint the control stick or the buttons and try to find a paint that matches a little better.

    Damn, I have a black nunchuk, so I don’t think it will work!

      Nunchuck*

  • ~Aku

    Awesome!

  • Walter Bomba

    I think that it looks perfect, and I’m also curious why Club Nintendo isn’t releasing this in North America, it’s not like it wouldn’t sell or anything.

    • Just some dude…

      And the UK, I realy want one

  • Parasite

    Super Awesome!!!

  • LinksDestiny

    I love that Nunchuck! I wish Club Nintendo would release something like this. Its beautiful.

  • DragonFire6780

    WANT

  • Supersmashbrother

    Its times like this I REALLY wish I could paint!

  • coolgirlluvsupre

    That’s an awesome idea, and the hylian crest is so perfect

  • coolgirlluvsupre
  • Just some dude…

    I want a real one!!!

  • Anon Zeruda

    o3o *Runs to the store and gets some gold spray paint and cuts out a Hylian crest stencil.* Oh, I wish. :/ Unfortunately, I’m completely broke, and I don’t think my parents would be to happy about me spray-painting the shower gold after the incident with the pink hairspray and wig for Halloween.
