1. A wireless game controller for remote-controlling a game machine through wireless communication, the game controller comprising:
- a body;
a plurality of internal components each utilizing electric power to operate, the plurality of components being classified into at least a first group of components whose members each have a relatively high rate of power consumption and a second group of components whose members each have a relatively low rate of power consumption;
the first group of components including a vibration module for vibrating the body of the game controller; and
at least two power supplies, one of the power supplies supplying electric power to only the first group of components, and another of the power supplies supplying electric power to the second group of components.

Abstract
A wireless controller is provided with at least two power supplies. The internal components of the controller are classified into at least two groups in accordance with the degrees of functional importance or the power consumptions of the components. The power supplies separately supply electric power to the respective groups of the components. Thus, the power supply to components with high degrees of functional importance or low power consumptions is ensured for a long time.
