Great add-on for the wii!!!!
By SNakeYe
I purchased this item recently and let me tell you....I'm impressed! The PS3/Wii Portable keyboard is small, sleek and easy to use. Since I already owned a keypad for my Xbox360, i badly wanted something similar to that for my wii instead of having to buy a full sized keyboard. With this item i can now browse the web on Wii's internet channel and easily type what i want much quicker than i would with the wiimote. This item also comes with two attachments. one for the PS3 and one for Wii. It runs on 2 AAA batteries and surprisingly, this doesn't restrict you from using the shoulder buttons on the wii classic controller as i would've thought. Even the Z buttons arent inaccessible. this also has an ON & OFF switch on the side so as not to waste the batteries power. It may be confusing for some to use at first but you get the hang of it. All you have to do is remember to hold the SYMB button as a shift button and you will not have any problems. Overall this is a great product and i highly recommend it!!

Meh
By Dan T
This is a good keyboard if you're looking for something compact to use for your console web browsing and web messaging. Unfortunately, it's fairly heavy (uses batteries), so it's difficult for me to add it to the controller and actually play games with ease. If you have even moderately large fingers, you'll often be pressing the wrong key and the back button doesn't work while typing. The piece of plastic used to attach the keyboard to your controller is also extremely hard to remove. (off the keyboard itself, not the controller)Solid item, but I wouldn't buy again.

Does not work!

Can not get it to sink up with the game, so I guess you could say it does not work?? Waste of money!
