```javascript

  // Nunchuk Event API
  //

  // "read" (nunchuk)
  //
  // Fired when the joystick detects a change in
  // axis position.

  // });

  // "change", "axischange" (joystick)
  //
  // Fired when the joystick detects a change in
  // axis position.
  //

      event.target[ event.axis ],
      event.axis, event.direction
    );
  });

  //
  // Fired when the accelerometer detects a change in

  // "hold"
  //
  // Fired when any nunchuk button is in the "down" state for

  //
  // To specify a custom hold time, use the "holdtime"
