Logitech has delivered gamers a wide selection of various accessories for our gaming systems. Logitech has announced a newly accessory for the Nintendo
Wii console. The accessory is called the
"Speed Force Wireless Racing Wheel". The name says it all.
The name of the accessory is pretty explanatory. It's a plastic steering wheel. Now you might say that we already have a steering wheel for the Nintendo
Wii, made by Nintendo. But this steering wheel is the real steering wheel we find in cars today. I believe that mimicking the actual thing is way more fun. The wheel consists of a giant steering wheel, of course, and a 'dashboard'. You have the directional pad on the left side and the rest of the buttons on the right side. The big thing for this device is that it is wireless. All that is needed, which is included in the box, is the USB connector which plugs into one of the Nintendo
Wii's USB slots. You can play up to thirty feet from your
Wii!
“We’re excited to team up with Nintendo and Electronic Arts to bring driving realism to the Wii and Need for Speed Undercover,” said Ruben Mookerjee, Logitech’s director of product marketing for gaming.
“Logitech has been at the forefront of force feedback technology for more than a decade, and we’re confident that our driving platform will be an indispensable part of the racing experience on Wii as more titles that support it become available.”
The Logitech Speed Force Wireless racing wheel will currently be sold in North America at the beginning of November for a retail price of $99.99.
