According to Chris1596, who's a Wii U owner, that is the official one. Can't give you more authentication than that!

Maybe it's an idea to email the one who's gonna send it and ask about it, although i don't think he's gonna say his is fake, even if it was :S

so you tell me to beware of the fake one, yet you don't tell me which one is the fake one? =[

Not this one, but close:

from that picture the one on the left uses a DS2's vibration revs, its basically a dualshock 2 but wireless =/

Yeah, a twisted article huh!? lol

The users here seem to think the one with the grayish D-Pad is the real one.

This one of the ripoff models me thinks. Those are easy to recognize at least.

Somthing like this;

Fake PSP

Fake PS Vita

I'd totally buy a fake console that allows me to play Metal Slug =D

the first sixaxis/dualshock 3 controllers were like that.  I bought them all at gamestop, so I dont think I got them fake ;)

Thing is, he may not even know if it's a fake. I'll mail him, just in case, but it's too late anyway. T_T

but it's not selling well why so would anybody want to make something that does not sell?

I get it with Wii but not WiiU :P
