Mad Catz Launches New MicoCON Wheel for the Xbox
Mad
Catz Interactive, Inc., a leading manufacturer of video game accessories, announced
today its newest line in racing wheels, the MC2 MicroCONâ„¢
for Playstation®2, Gamecube™ and the Xbox™ video game system
from Microsoft. Each of these three products is currently available in major
retail stores for a suggested price of $29.99 (U.S.). Based on the same “micro”
concept of the previously launched MicroCON
controllers, the Mad Catz MC2 MicroCON wheel is a compact version of the
Mad Catz MC-2, the other most powerful and realistic racing wheel available
from Mad Catz. The MicroCON wheel offers unparalleled style and comfort for
gamers with smaller hands or gamers seeking a more compact controller. . .
“The MicroCON wheel does not sacrifice features that are found with
our larger steering wheel,” states Darren Richardson, President and
COO of Mad Catz. “In fact, we have designed our new line of wheels
with vibration feedback, F1 style shifters, retractable leg supports, pedals,
and double injected rubber-grips for excellent control, comfort, and realism.”

With ten action buttons and a wheel that rotates up to 270 degrees, Mad Catz’
MC2 MicroCON provides gamers with superior steering accuracy. In order to suit
all gamers’ personal driving preferences, the MC2 MicroCON for Xbox and GameCube
features the ability to tune the wheel’s sensitivity, and the Playstation 2
and GameCube version offers pedal and F1 shifter programmability.
So whether you take the MC2 MicroCON to Talladega, Le Mans, or a no holds barred
desert rally, this wheel is the ideal solution for any gamer big or small.
