Love this set!Cons:: Case is a snug fit & presses triggers & bumpers. Can't use the charging cradle with skin on the Gamepad. This is easily remedied by simply removing the bottom half of the skin while in use. The pocket & sleeves in case are of cheap quality. They are still very much usable, but a bit difficult to get into due to lack of elastic. It doesn't come with a screen protector, but most inexpensive kits don't & they're easily found for reasonable prices.Pros:: This clamshell case is surprisingly sturdy! I've dropped it multiple times with no damage to the Gamepad. The two extra stylus are handy for the times the original is misplaced. As far as I can tell, they're just like the original, too. The screen cleaner is truly a blessing from the gaming gods & much more convenient than the typical cloth wipe. The skin is a comfortable fit & ever so slightly transparent- just enough so that I can see the Triforce on my WindWaker gamepad through the lightly coloured areas of the silicone. It's not a hassle to put on or remove & even after a couple months, feels secure rather than loose. It IS Amiibo comparable with the NFC area exposed.Conclusion:: DEFINITELY worth such a low price tag! All of the cons are minor inconveniences & the couple of extra features are a nice touch. It arrived quickly & packaged securely. If you're considering an inexpensive kit, this is a GREAT option.

A really well and thought-out addition that Wii U owners should purchase. The included grip is very useful in keeping finger prints off the glossy frame. The two stylus are a great addition in the event that you manage to lose one. The included screen cleaner is beyond what I thought it would be. It has a small loop to be attached to your finger to help get the nooks and crannies cleaned as well. The carrying case is the right size as well. It seems to fit a fit a solid three games. The flap that contains the stylus has a softer, non-scratch side that covers the screen when the case is fully closed, another thing I find so endearing about it. Overall this purchase was very good. If I had to change one thing about it, I would ask that they include a screen protector to really make it the essential kit. Shipping was fast and easy as always. I recommend this to any hesitant Wii U owner and any owner that has yet to get a case/grip for their gamepad.

The silicone case is useless. It ripped shortly after we put it on. Not durable at all. Kids use this and it needs to be tough. I had a Nerf one once and that lasted a lot longer.

Feels nicely made, I just wish the rubber protective sleeve was designed to work with the charging cradle. (I have seen a few others that are made in a way to work with it). With the current design of the rubber sleeve, it is impossible to even modify it to work with the charging station. That aside, the rubber case does feel nice in the had and adds a bit of protection to the gamepad. The carry case is holding up well, the zipper hasn't broke, and it seems like it would really protect the game pad if you packed it up to take with you somewhere. For some reason they put the tags on the screen side of the protective flap in the middle, a quick trim solved that problem though. Over all i think it is a nice bundle. Not including a screen protector is a good thing i thought, allowed me to pick out what ever style I want. Would easily be a 5 star item if the rubber sleeve was designed to work with the charging stand.I knew going into it that the sleeve would not work with the charging stand, so I did not hold it against the rating too much. Still didn't like that they made it so we can't cut it to make it fit though.

I bought this kit for my mother as a Christmas present and I was pleased to see that Power A had not changed the design for this product since the release of the Wii U. Everything seen in the product images came to me in pristine condition and it fit her gamepad perfectly. I prefer the open design Power A offers, it does not cover or hinder buttons which was ideal for this gift. I have a black/grey variant which has served me well over the years. The cleaning brick works well and the styluses included are all great additions to the clam shell style case which offers great protection for the gamepad. Buy with confidence, Power A makes great accessories!

I have wanted one of these kits for a long time but finding it has proved really difficult, especially the blue one at a decent price. Finding for £12 was great & I didn't hesitate to order. It is the blue one as advertised (not Barbie Pink thank god, lol) and is a great addition to my Gamepad.

These are great cases. Build quality on the contents of the kit is very good and it offers excellent protection, it even comes with a form fitting gel sleeve that protects the Gamepad from scuffs and scratches while in use. The extra styluses fit the Gamepad slot perfectly, and the screen wipe is a strange square oddity that works just fine (a bit bulky for a screen wipe though).If you plan to travel with your Wii U, then this is a great way to protect the Gamepad. If you can find a seller that lets you choose which color you are going to get, then these are highly recommended.

I needed something to help transport my gamepad and it definitely works well for that. I'm not a fan of the silicone case that comes with it and only put it on when moving the gamepad to a new location. With the case on it will not fit either stand that comes with the wiiU.

The protector covers nicely and I love the design. I'm not sure how well it will protect from falls since luckily we haven't dropped it yet. I love the case I can put up the controller in the drawer with the rest of them but without the fear of the screen being damaged from the drawers contents.It would be nice to have a screen protector but it was easy to find one on here for a great price. All in all I'm very happy with the kit and feel much better not having to worry if it slips from my hands. It was also for a great price. Which was important especially having to buy 2 new remotes with the motion plus function for the wii sport and fit games. The accessories really add up.

We put the protector on the console and quickly realized we have to take it off every time we needed to charge the console. Got another one where we can keep it on at all times. We do use the case, but it was too expensive for what we purchased and were able to use.
