first wii usb feature a printer

[tomqman]

i was a bit confussed by it so was he but i thought that someone else might have asked about it on here thats why i posted also any one with a USB printer has a cable any way so the dont need to worry about all the old wii owners. we just need to find some one else who has found a cable in there wii

Nintendo wouldn't send a cable without any hardware to connect to.

nintendo needs to make a firmware update to put that usb port to good use. you could play mp3's, print photos, have a headset for online, and many other accesories all with a simple firmware update.

i hoping nintendo are going to release a update soon as we havent herd much lately apart from a big news at e3

 

[gingerkid]

i think they should and probably will release info about the usb. i think nintendo has lots of surprises up there sleeves for e3.

i'm pretty sure you're wii was a mis-packaging or something. maybe a worker put the wrong cord in the wrong box.

I'm thinking USB slots will be used for the external hard drive which will be announces at E3 *hinting to Nintendo* (Do you think Nintendo Staff reads these forums?)

 

[elmo_999]

how big do you think the external hard drive gonna be (how much gigs and how big sizewise)

 

[anthonybest1]

if they do bring a hard drive out i hope its and good price not the xbox 360(paying £69.99 for 20 gigs but they only give you 12 gigs to use crap)

 

[JT.]

Considering this is Nintendo, I'd say 10 gigs. I would hope at least 40 gigs.

Well E3 2007 is soon

 

[gingerkid]

when is e3? next week?

 

[tomqman]

ok heres some pictures of the cable but i couldnt find any wii branding on the cable so i think that he has made mistake but wouldnt it be kool if that was a feature

1) You or your friend is lying.

2) A printer would be a stupid peripheral for a game console

3) That is a USB cable. Not a USB printer cable, a USB cable.
