Nintendo’s statement about the Wii U voice chat and headset setup
Posted on October 18, 2012 by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U
Nintendo’s approach to voice chat and headsets for Wii U are already making waves. The bottom line is, it’s an unconventional and confusing approach.
When asked to provide a comment about the situation, Nintendo responded with the following:
“Wii U will have in-game chat functionality for select games, including, but not limited to, Call of Duty: Black Ops II, Assassin’s Creed III and Mass Effect 3. This feature will be supported by licensed stereo headsets that plug directly into the headphone port of the Game Pad. Licensed headsets are available from Turtle Beach and TRITTON.”
We can only hope that there will be some simpler solution with wireless headsets in the future…
