This is a UNIQUE (not even nintendo thought of it!) light gun that presses the a button instead of b button, so you use it for the wii internet channel.

Jul 20, 2009. 8:42 PMcasey321b says:

oh BTW the reason nintendo didnt make this is because they meant for the internet channel to browse the internet not to play games... lucky for us they still have flash player...

gear-guy is right you can you just need an update to your system.

Some keyboards are USB compatible, the Wii has USB ports. It works when the on-screen keyboard pops up. I recommend trying this because it is faster than the point and click method.

Aug 2, 2008. 9:48 AMBartboy (author) says:

Wont work with my keyboard.

Jul 1, 2008. 5:37 PMrobots199 says:

looks nice but it looks too bulky and big to use for the internet. I like this instructable but I will stick to using a keyboard and mouse for the wii internet. Try making a new version that is skinnier but besides from that nice instructable. I love your Knex sports pack though! 4/5.

Jul 24, 2008. 6:57 AMlopez8675 says:

is the keyboard the wii onscreen keyboard, or an external one?

Jul 11, 2008. 11:26 AMwillowdanny says:

i know you can use a keyboard on the wii....but a mouse.... how do you do that?

Jul 1, 2008. 6:08 PMBartboy (author) says:

\i do not understand, this is a lightgun for the internet, not a mouse, and you ccan't use keyboard on wii

Oct 13, 2008. 12:48 PMgear-guy says:

YeS yOu can use a usb keyboard with the wii.

Nov 22, 2008. 9:29 AMBartboy (author) says:

Could not When I did, It did not do anyrhing

Apr 24, 2009. 5:30 PMKwitmeh3 says:

try a different keyboard and if you don't have 1 don't reply

Apr 25, 2009. 9:03 AMBartboy (author) says:

Umm, well, you see. I got my wii on Nov 19 2006 (?) the day it came out. Since then, there have been several updates to the wii console that many people thought came on it. That was one of them...
