As its name implies, the Logitech Speed Force Wireless is a force feedback racing wheel for the Wii with a 30 ft wireless range. It is the first racing wheel accessory for the Wii that isn’t a shell accessory for the Wiimote. The 10″ wheel rotates 200 degrees and has analog gas and brake controls. Need For Speed Undercover will be the first game to take advantage of the force feedback capability, but I’m more concerned about whether or not this thing will work with Mario Kart Wii. It will hit stores in November for $100. [Logitech]

There are few things more disappointing than finding a copy of Super Smash Bros. Brawl, popping it into your Wii, and finding that you get a read error.

Have no fear — you’re not alone. The same errors occurred in Japan to some unlucky gamers and it’s due to the fact that SSBB is the first game to take advantage of the Wii’s dual layer lens.

The previously unused lens is more sensitive to dirty, grime, smoke, and other assorted filth. But Nintendo is already aware of the problem and will fix it free of charge for the small percentage of people it affects. Not only that, but the company will pay for the shipping both ways as well.

You can’t beat that kind of customer service with a stick. The only downside is, of course, that you won’t have a Wii in the meantime. For those afflicted gamers…time to spend more quality time with the DS.
