Orb Racing Wheel Wii > Reviews (2)

I bought this for my daughter off Ebay and it cost me just £2.45 which also included postage and packing. I did actually buy this in pink so it is available to buy in different colours.

How to use

You do not need to sync this to your wii, as it does still run off your wii remote, to set it up all you do is push your wii remote sidewards into the hole in the middle of the wheel, which is just the right size for your wii remote, and thats all there is to it, once thats done you are all ready to use it. To take it back out again you just push it from underneath and it slots straight back out again.

How to use it for racing

When you are racing with your wii remote, you must hold it sideways, which is why you have to put your remote on the wheel in this position, then it works just like a wii remote, you have easy access to all the buttons you will need to use, and when you want to go round a corner you just turn the wii wheel, like you would in a car.

The wii wheel is actually quite light to use, its only that little bit heavier than the wii remote, but dont forget that is in there too, so it is still pretty light.

My overall opinion

This is really easy to you and I do think it is easier to use than the wii remote, as it is bigger you can judge the corners more better rather than turning the wii remote too much as I always tend to do. My daughter also found it easier to play when using this, so I would recommend buying one, as they are cheap and it makes the racing games a lot easier to play.
