Logitech today announced that its Logitech® Classic Keyboard 200, a full-sized USB keyboard, is compatible with Nintendo’s popular Wii home video game system.
“We are delighted that Logitech is supporting Wii and are very excited in Europe to bring another compatible keyboard to Wii owners” comments Laurent Fischer, European Managing Director of Marketing & PR. “Logitech is the perfect partner to bring Wii owners yet another experience, maximizing their enjoyment and usage of the Wii console.”
“Wii has infused the gaming community with tremendous new energy,” said Bruce Lancaster, vice president of Logitech’s gaming business unit. “And the Logitech Classic Keyboard 200 adds value to the exciting Wii experience. Now consumers can enjoy the advantages of having a keyboard to help them manage their Wii Message Board and enter text in the Wii Internet Channel.”
Ready for immediate use, the plug-and-play Classic Keyboard 200 offers people the advantages of a compact form factor and low-profile keys. Ideal for use in the living room, the Classic Keyboard 200 features a spill-resistant design; if a gamer does spill water or coffee, for example, on the keyboard during the heat of competition, a carefully designed drainage system prevents the hardware from being damaged under most circumstances.
The Classic Keyboard 200 will work with Wii systems that have been updated to the latest Wii Menu, version 3.1. Users can perform this update by selecting the “ Wii System Update” button in the Wii Settings menu.-Nintendo
