5 out of 5 stars Official Nintendo Wii Wheel   April 15, 2008
 17 out of 18 found this review helpful

I've experiemented with playing Mario Kart Wii, with and without the wheel, but I find the wheel does make things more fun! There's not much to it really, but the remote fits snugly in and there is a trigger on the reverse of the steering wheel which presses the B trigger when driving (drift and slide button).

You can play with just the remote, but I found my right thumb got more cramped, and the slide buttons were more uncomfortable to reach. The wheel gives you something to grip, and also keeps the remote more level.

I haven't tried it with the Game cube controller, or the Remote/Nunchuck set up, as I wanted to get used to the tilt sensor. It could well be that you'll achieve faster lap times by using the traditional controls....but I hope that isn't so. Nintendo need to be commended once again for being innovative and intuitive at the same time.

I only wish I could purchase another wheel, but they're sold out everywhere!!




5 out of 5 stars Way over priced   May 26, 2008

13.99 - your having a laugh.

I just bought 4 of these from Argos at 6.99. Take note 6.99 is the rrp as seen on the official Nintendo website.

Game is the best yet and the wheel makes it much easier. Also the official wheel is better than the other brands. Top marks for the product - no marks for the price.




5 out of 5 stars Great!   August 9, 2008

The official wii wheel is by far the best wheel for wii out there, and it makes games like mario kart wii seem more realilstic and comftable to use. also the blue ring on the back adds style and colour 5/5


5 out of 5 stars Great when you get used to it   April 23, 2008

It takes a while to get used to doing tricks without swerving around but this is a great control method once you get into it.
The only thing I don't get is how Amazon are quoting the RRP at 24.99 when it's 6.99. Shame because these are out of stock everywhere.



5 out of 5 stars Nintendo do make nice stuff...   December 30, 2008

I got the Official wheel and a free generic one when I bought Mario Kart.

I offered a friend of mine the use of the non-official wheel on a recent visit, while I would use the official wheel.

His response was "Hmmm... You can work that up your bangle sir."

He's right.

The Nintendo one fits the controller like a hand in glove, the generic one does not.

The Nintendo one has places for all the buttons and bits, the generic one does not.

The Nintendo one feels like a quality bit of kit, the generic one does not.

The Nintendo one has an eyehole for the IR, the generic one does not.

The Nintendo one has lovely textured plastic that is just 'right', the generic one does not.

And it's dirt cheap, why buy something else??
