 Ugh - I hate this thing May 5, 2008

I was so excited for Mario Kart for the Wii! I pre-ordered the game, and an extra wheel for my wife... The game did NOT disappoint - its a blast - the Wheel however, is a total waste... its soooo hard to use, you can't get nearly the right control out of it - the best way to play this game is with the remote and the nunchuck. Don't waste your money on this silly piece of plastic!!
 A nice themed holder to have for any racing fan... May 5, 2008

With the release of Mario Kart Wii, this new Wii Remote holder is going to be a hot item, especially if you are planning on racing against others in said game on your Wii.
But lets face it, all it is, is a plastic holder that is shaped like a wheel that your remote snaps into. And thats all there is to this accessory. Its nothing more then a holder shaped like a wheel to house your remote to give you the feeling of using a steering wheel while you play a racing game. So realize that going into the purchase that its just that and nothing more.
At least though the price is right and reasonable for the most part. This is not must get though as all the games this will be for I'm sure will play just fine without it. But it will add a little extra something that the already gimic like remote provides for the Wii. This just takes that remote factor an extra step by giving the illusion and feel of a wireless steering wheel that you can hold anywhere and use to race on a screen far away.
The choice is really yours. If you want to have the feeling of playing a racing game on the Wii with a wheel in your hands, this will work quite well for that. If its not that big a deal to you and you are fine with either a classic controler or the wii remote and nunchuk, then this isn't that important a purchase to make. But I do think this adds something of a element to things that is worth the small one time investment it will be.
Again its just a personal choice. Its just a plastic mold, when push comes to shove. But I think its fun device either way that is a nice addition to the Wii family of accessories.
Good, but Expensive May 2, 2008

This official Nintendo Wii Wheel is the one that comes with Mario Kart. My brothers and I bought the actual Mario Kart Wii game, but wanted more wheels, so we bought them. This wheel is way better than the other wheels that other companies make. The Wii Remote fits very easily in the wheel and is very easy to take out. You can also point with the wheel attached. I like how the B button is layed out on the wheel. But this is just a piece of plastic, so it even shouldn't be $9.99. $15 is way over priced. I think it should be around $3 to $5.

We got this for an extra for Mario Kart Wii. It seems to work pretty well. I have an easier time playing the game with the wheel. It's pretty basic, no parts to break really, so it's pretty durable.

Do yourself a favor, get this Nintendo Wii Wheel. why? Once you put in the Wii controller in it there is a hole on the side to point your cusor to the Wii menu. A must Have! Forget the the third party wheel, because they did not think of this feature.
