With Microsoft stopping the production of their Racing Wheel, and having not had them available in NZ for a while now, we needed something to help us in our racing fix. In steps Mad Catz with a new wheel plus several other accoessories including the Mad Catz Controller Charge Stand. Check out the following press release. Also note prices are in US dollars and not what they will be sold for here, as soon as the costs come through I will put up the prices and the dates of availability in NZ.
• Mad Catz Wireless Racing Wheel – Xbox 360
Ideal for arcade or simulation style racing, the Mad Catz Wireless Racing Wheel adds a dimension of realism and excitement to any Xbox 360 driving game. Complete with racing pedals, the Wireless Racing Wheel features and interchangeable gear shift for left or right handed drivers and full rubber grips providing comfort and stability during the tightest of turns. Utilizing the same secure wireless technology featured in the official wireless Microsoft® Xbox 360 controller, the Wireless Racing Wheel connects directly to the Xbox 360 with no need for an external dongle or adaptor. Dual-mounting option allows gamers to secure their Wheel to a flat surface via the desk mount or play on the couch via lap-rest supports. Non-slip accelerator and brake pedal set includes a detachable foot rest allowing gamers to race in comfort at all time and integrated port for Xbox LIVE™ allows gamers to chat online during play.
Darren Richardson, President and Chief Executive Officer of Mad Catz commented, “The announcement of these new accessories for the Xbox 360 marks our continued commitment to grow our core range of products in the console videogame sector. We are particularly pleased to be introducing our first wireless steering wheel for the Xbox 360 and believe that gamers will react positively to the quality and value which we believe is clearly evident in both accessories.”
• Mad Catz Controller Charge Stand – Xbox 360
The Mad Catz Controller Charge Stand allows gamers to conveniently charge up to two official Microsoft Rechargeable Battery Packs at the same time. Designed to sit on any flat surface, gamers connect the controller to the Charge Stand via the charging-port located on top of the official Microsoft Xbox 360 controller, negating the need to remove rechargeable battery pack when charging. While the controller rests in the stand, an LED charging indicator located on top of the Charge Stand allows gamers to monitor the status of their battery packs, turning from red to green when charge is complete. Unique ‘snap-apart’ design allows gamers to connect and disconnect the Charge Stand at will, depending on how many rechargeable battery packs are connected. Removing the need for costly batteries, the Controller Charge Stand provides a quick and green solution for all Xbox 360 gamers.
