 Great Wireless Keyboard For The Wii |
| Review Date: October 27, 2008 |
| Reviewer: D. Williams, TX USA |
This wireless keyboard is great! Small, slim, fits nicely on my lap. Lightweight, but seems pretty durable. Typing on it is fine (and, obviously, much faster than using the Wii remote). Looks great, too, matching the Wii and other accessories.
Set-up was a snap -- put in 2 AA cells (included), plug the wireless receiver into the Wii's USB, flip a switch on the bottom to turn it on. I have two Wii's in adjacent rooms, and the two keyboards do not interfere with each other.
A bit pricy, but I feel it's worth it. Great accessory! |
A must for any Wii user

This product is terrific. Light-weight, slim and just "cute" since it is so small. Only takes 2 double AA batteries (which are included). No syncing necessary, well at least for me I did not have to sync it. I mainly purchased this to use on Wii Animal Crossing City Folk since it is do frustrating using the Wii remote when typing. Now I can type greetings and letters much quicker.
It comes with a very small USB adapter that snaps firmly into the bottom of the keyboard for safe keeping. Can be used with ANY computer. Perfect for taking along when traveling with your laptop since it is so light-weight and compact.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. |
This is a great product

I just got my Wii keyboard at Gamestop for about $30.00 and I found that its running about the same here (last I looked it was about $50.00 so I had thought I found a steal at the time, oh well)
Anyway, I bought this keyboard becuse I heard it works great with the other gaming councils as well as the Wii and as a Wii owner I figured there was no real risk if it didn't work with my 360.
Well to start off, I am Writting this review with this Keybard so I can say it works with my P.C. flawlessly.
When I tried this keyboard with my xbox 360 I would say I had great results. The reciver will fit easily in all 3 of your 360 usb ports. When I tured it in the back port of the 360, part of me was wondering if it was going to have an issue with the eathernet cord plugged in next to it. However, when I tried it in the back of the 360 I found it fit so well I would have thought it was made specifically for the 360 if the keyboard didn't say Wii right on it. It even works when plugged in threw my xbox 360 hd dvd player ports as well. (I wanted to test everything). And as far as in game play I found that I loved chat with this keaybaord on Phantasy Star Universe as my controller is far to slow. This is a great keyboard for the xbox 360 despite the fact its made for wii and I would recommend it to 360 owners who dont even own or plan on buying a wii.
Now im shore some people are wondering how well this works with the PS3. Personally I don't own a PS3 or I would have tested it but I would imagine this would work. I think that this keybard is desined to fool devices into thinking its an old fashend corded usb keyboard as it doenst require anything to install it, just plug it in and go. My older logitech keyboard requries me to use a disk to install it to every pc I use it on but this requres none of that.
IN summery, I hope that someone will try this with the PS3 and tells us what they think. Also, the pros and cons are listed below.
Pros.
Does not need to be installed and it works well out of the box
Its also compatable with
Wii (duh)
Xobx 360
PC
and it seems veary sturdy and hard to break
Cons.
keybard is not the most comfetable but it is small so I guess your trading some comfert for portablity.
Also, this keybard is not completly necesarry if you own a usb keabard as any standard one will do this jub but I don't know how meany wirless keybards can match its compatability with other gaming concils. (my old wirless keaybard does not work with my councils and that is what got me to buy it)
Well I hope this review is useful to people |

| I bought this for my daughter and she loves it!! It's a little pricey for a USB keyboard, but it works very well with the Wii and it's a ton better than trying to us the online keyboard when you're on the Internet site (I tried it out before giving it to my daughter ;-) ). The only thing you should be aware of is that you need the Wii controller to use as your mouse to select things on the Internet channel, but I consider that a minor issue. |
I love this keyboard!

I recently bought this keyboard and I wanted to share my thoughts with the Amazon community. Let's clear up one issue right off the bat. Yes, this keyboard will work with a PC. In fact, I am writing this review with the keyboard synced to my laptop running Windows 7. I can only guess that Logitech doesn't hype this little factoid because they want you to buy separate keyboards for your game consoles and your computers.
Another reviewer incorrectly wrote that the Enter key on this keyboard does not have the same functionality as the Enter key on a PC keyboard. That isn't quite true. I used this keyboard to enter URLs on my PC and hit "Enter" and I was whisked away to my favorite websites with ease. Using the Enter key in this fashion won't work on the Wii but that is because of the console's operating system, not through any fault with the keyboard. In any case, you simply use the "OK" key when using the keyboard with your Wii.
This keyboard is smaller than most PC keyboards. If you look at a standard, full size keyboard and note the distance from the left side all the way to the Backspace, Enter and rightmost Shift key, you'll have a rough idea as to the size of this keyboard. You won't miss any keys though, you still get the number keys, function keys, arrow keys, etc. The only keys I don't see are the ones that are not needed for the Wii such as PrintScreen, the expanded side number keys, etc.
The keyboard itself is light but has a decent feel to its build quality. It won't stand up to the keyboards that cost $100 or more but it is more solid than you'd expect for a third party keyboard for a Nintendo system. It is comfortable to hold in your lap while on the sofa.
The keyboard comes with two AA batteries (WE like that) and a USB receiver. The receiver is a tad smaller than two pieces of Chiclet gum laid side by side. That's fairly large compared to my Blue Track mouse receiver but still small enough to fit in the palm of your hand. I'm impressed with how far away you can sit from the receiver and still use the keyboard. I think that it is safe to say that this keyboard will work fine in the vast majority of peoples' living room set ups.
So little Wii owner, do you need this keyboard? Maybe. If you play text heavy games such as Animal Crossing: City Folk, a keyboard is a must. The viral nature of the game means that your letters, poems and banter can reach players all over the world and it is just too tedious to type with the Wiimote. A keyboard really helps with that and a wireless one is just a bit more practical. While you can use virtually any wireless USB keyboard with the Wii, this one includes a few Wii specific buttons such as "Zoom" and "Ok". The styling also matches the Wii console and its compact size makes it very comfortable to use in the living room.
If you play text heavy games, send lotsof messages to friends or browse the web from your Wii, this keyboard is worth picking up. I paid $14.90 for a new keyboard but I'd say any price around $25 or so makes this product a good buy. |
