How to Use My Keyboard & Mouse With the Wii

The Nintendo Wii was one of the first consoles to ever be able to access the Internet as a regular PC would. However, typing anything was a pain due to having to use the Wii remote to click on the on-screen keyboard. Nintendo responded with a system update that allowed users to use wireless keyboards for typing. While most wireless keyboards can be used, the official Wii Logitech Cordless Keyboard is recommend. Note that mouse support is not enabled on the Wii.
