Description
When used together with the Wii Remote Plus, the Wii steering wheel provides an unbridled driving experience. The Wii Remote Plus has the ability to detect movements and translate them directly onto the screen, a feature that is universally supported by game developers across different game genres, such as action, adventure, sports, and especially racing games. Typically, the Wii Remote Plus is turned by 90 degrees to create a virtual steering wheel, but when paired with the Wii Wheel accessory for the Wii U, the steering control becomes even more lifelike and realistic.
The Joy-Con Wheel accessory allows you to use the motion controls of the Joy- Con controllers to steer your car in racing games, providing a more immersive and realistic driving experience. You can turn the wheel left or right to steer, and the motion sensors in the Joy-Con controllers detect your movements and translate them into steering inputs on the screen.
The Joy-Con Wheel is compatible with all racing games on the Nintendo Switch console that support motion controls. It is also compatible with both the left and right Joy-Con controllers, so you can use it with either controller depending on your preference.
Please note that the Joy-Con controllers are not included with the Joy-Con Wheel accessory, and must be purchased separately.
