Default Flaws of the Wavebird

My friend just recently told me about the wavebird. He bought one, and I was talking to him about it. He said it was good and everything but theres no rumble... the battery lasts for about 60 hours which is ok but still no rumble? also another flaw he said was that the wavebird has to be pointed at the tv n if someone is standing in the way, the controller wont work. i dont know if hes jus bsing or not..but yeah he basically told me to just get normal gc controllers, or a classic Wii controller because of these flaws.

PS : DONT CUSS ITS JUS WHAT I HEARD

Don't buy one then.

Get a classic controller, they're pretty cheap.
Or get a Gamecube controller as they're even cheaper.

I just bought my first wavebird to play VC and gamecube games on the Wii and I absolutley love it. Not having rumble is such a minor loss to me. I never had any issues since I've gotten it with my wife walking in front of me or with not pointing directly at the reciever.
