Gamestop now accepting pre-orders for Nintendo’s Wheel

Who say only one member of your posse gets to plays Mario Kart Wii like a driving simulator? We’re sending out word that Gamestop is now accepting pre-orders for the Wii Wheel accessory. Pricing details on this Wii peripheral are available over in the full article.

Here’s a bit of good news, at least if you’re willing to shell out some extra cash for Mario Kart Wii for your buddies’ sake. Online retailer Gamestop has recently announced that it will now accept pre-orders for the Wii Wheel controller, currently on sale for  US$14.99.

The Wheel is expected to ship on the same day as Mario Kart‘s North America release, so with a bit of luck, you’ll have it available when you start playing.

While the game bundle already includes a Wii Wheel, this update should come in handy for your friends, family, and whomever you’ll be playing alongside. The accessory should also work on other previous racing titles such as Excite Truck.

We remind the viewers that Mario Kart Wii is currently scheduled to hit the U.S. by April 27. The game provides for up to four different controller setups, so you don’t have to use the wheel if it doesn’t match your play style. Still, the option’s always there. Drop by again in case we receive info on any other retailer providing for pre-orders.
