    The Wii and online game play necessarily get along sometimes. It is a little known fact that can be difficult to communicate with friends over Wii multiplayer sessions and Wii speak was never adopted by big software developers or most gamers. PDP and Nintendo have recently come out with a solution for your multiplayer communication issues on the Wii. PDP has developed an exclusive limited edition Call of Duty: Black Ops Headbanger Chat Headset for Wii. 

    The Headbanger Headset will allow gamers to experience online communication in a whole new way. This is the first time in history a franchise will feature full voice communication on the Wii. The limited edition Call of Duty: Black Ops Headbanger Headset features a noise-cancelling microphone for a crystal-clear voice input, high-quality sound via its oversized speaker, an extra large mute button and volume control dial with a 10-foot cord. The headset includes an LED indicator light which indicates when it’s live or mute. The flexible microphone boom is adjustable for maximum comfort and has a noise cancelling microphone and earpiece.

    The headset is officially licensed by both Activision and Nintendo. The Limited Edition headset hits stores prior to the launch of Call of Duty: Black Ops on November 9th, along with the standard white headset for the Wii. Both headsets will be available at retailers across North America and Europe for $24.99.

    I'm hoping a Hedbanger 2 comes out soon that is wireless! The idea of having a 10' cord connecting my ear to the back of my Wii console is not a good one!

    The 10' wire is a bad idea, there is 3 empty slots that support bluetooth technology. I used this product one night I will never use it again, really depressing to throw away $25, I would have paid up to $60.00 for a wireless product.
