4Gamers launches 2.1 speaker system for Nintendo Wii

NEWS: 25 January 2008 14:27 GMT - With over five million Nintendo Wiis sold in the UK any peripherals makers have got a really decent install base to start from.

That's what A4T must be thinking as they launch 4Gamers' officially licensed 2.1 Speaker System for Wii into Blighty.

The 2.1 system - that has apparently been in development for nearly 2 years - will allow Wii-ers to enjoy their gaming experience in two-and-a-bit channel stereo sound.

Designed to compliment the Wii console, the subwoofer claims to provide deep and responsive bass, which combined with the satellite speakers, produces 30 Watts (RMS) output.

And, if you want to stick the system right next to your TV, you can, the magnetically shielded wooden subwoofer cabinet prevents magnetic radiation from speaker magnets causing distortion to your television.

All functions (including bass and treble) can be remotely controlled to a distance of up to seven metres while pressing the "3D audio mode" button promises to take you "inside the game and the music".

The system will cost £69.99, availability and stockist info is all TBC.

I can't wait to see how this turns out. But check out these awesome picks. (Especially the Nunchuck speakers)

The Nunchuck speakers are a great addition and the product looks quite nice.

Yeah, at first I thought they were making speakers built in to the nunchucks like the wiimote but then I read and figured out it was a speaker system.

I probably wouldn't buy this myself as I'm happy with my sound. But it does look pretty nice. I love the nunchuk design for the speakers.

Haha this is quite the design! Loving those nunchuck speakers also.

I have just realised that the actual speaker system looks like a Wii but wider.
I would probably consider this if I owned a Wii.

You dont already? Since when??

looks tacky, imo.

and is that the wii sitting next to a sub? the vibrations of the sub cant be good for whatever disc you have in the console.

Phht, it wouldn't even fit next to my TV if it's gonna be that wide, I don't like it, it looks cool, but I don't like it.
