you can hook up a keyboard. we have a wireless keyboard and it works great if you use the internet channel or send emails through the wii to other wii’s or other people. you can also purchase battery chargers that connect through usb. i’m sure it is also for future peripherals.

also, the Ethernet internet adapter plugs into the USB… The wifi connection was too slow in my dorm room so we wired it up.

we just purchased Rock Band and you have to plug it in in the usbs
