How do you connect?

I am wondering what the best way to remotely control your NXT is? Also how do you control your NXT if you do. I was wondering about lowest price best functionality and easiest programming. So if you have experience with one NXT controller in specific or several than please post and tell me the pros and cons for price, functionality, programing and fun. Thanks to all who post.

well myself i like to use the mindsensors.com PS2 Controller Adapter. For $35 US it is in my opinion not a bad price, and a controller will set you back another $20. very easy to use and program, and you can use the same program for most things

If you have 2 NXTs, simple NXT to NXT remote control is the easiest solution. I have the NXT-G programs and stuff for that here:

Of course, it has been asked if turning $500 USD worth of LEGOs into a RC car worth $40 is worth it... but I think it is!

Ya i agree that the best possible remote would be NXT to NXT, but if you are like me i have to have 2 robots built at the same time.
