Im not sure some do and some dont. Just call Nintendo of America or what ever continent yo live and ask them for help.

actually....it doesnt need to be wireless....you just didnt updated the internet channel yet

see i dont know why they did this. i used my dad's microsoft usb keyboard because the one that nintendo said would work i ordered(and it should come in the mail soon)for $15 and a 10ft usb extender for $8 and the extender dont work. they should have said in the update usb extenders wont work because i figured wireless wont work because it would need drivers. why did they just make a keyboard when the wii came out because we all knew that sooner or later we would need one. and it would have a cable really long and make one wireless.

Any wireless keyboard should work my dad has a HP wireless keyboard that works but they all work the same way so it shouldn't matter

Okay. According to the message Nintendo sent to my Wii, not all keyboards would work. Thanks!

hmmm...i think it has to be the same brand with the keyboard

maybe its too far for it to send the signal and you need a repeater im not sure do other devices work on the 10ft cable does it work on your pc?

well rob might as well return the extender because you jus wasted your money.
