New Info On Keyboard support for Wii!

Ok...

1. Don't ask for a link....I don't have one

2. Don't say OH SO WHAT, I don't believe blah blah blah.

Anywho......Gameinformer Issue 169....(the new one with the GTA IV in the front) has an aritcle that says Nintendo Development Team said that it is considering adding a keyboard peripheral to the Wii. But it isn't offically anounnced.

About time :)

I think a wireless keyboard is an absolute necessity... typing with the wiimote if it's any more than just a word or two can be a real chore. GIMMIE!HotelNeptune

Try using your nunchuk to manipulate the pointer while selecting letters and such. I find it is alittle easier to navigate the keyboard on screen than pointing and clicking with the remote only...Maybe its just me though.

1. I need to see a link or I won't believe a word of it.  Ever.

2. Oh, so what?  I don't believe it will be useful at all!  A keyboard for TYPING?  Who ever heard of that?  Keyboards are for MMORPGs and FPSs on computers, not for communication!  Idiots!

BTW I'm totally kidding.  Sounds cool!

Browsing the web on the Wii with the Wii-remote makes a wireless keyboard an obvious necessity.

 But first, I'd like to see faster browsing capabilities for the Opera Browser and the Shop.  I don't want to have to wait through 5 minutes of loading to get what's obviously going to be an error message.

Sorry, but:

microsoft said one of the primary reasons they are adding it for the 360 is to assist the addition of MS Messenger.. that would be communication.. idiot.

That sounds alright, but I would rather have Nintendo start making rechargable lithium battery kits for the wii-mote just like how microsft did for the xbox 360 charger kit. Buying batteries is the dumbest thing in the world and I think it is about time Nintendo realised this. Xbox did it, i dont see why nintendo cant do it.

We have rechargers for the Wii-Motes at my office.  They're not officially nintendo--some third party.  But I use regular batteries at home, and haven't had a problems in the past two months that I've owned the Wii.  The only difference is the rechargable battery packs weigh the remote down a little more, which can be a factor you'd need to compensate for when playing, but it's a very minimal difference.

The Wii needs faster web and shop browsing.  The Wii needs one channel for all Virtual Console games you buy, rather than a separate channel per game.  There are many things to complain about other than batteries.  Go to Costco and get yourself a pack.  It's not going to bankrupt you.
