Wolfking announces MVP series gamepad and mouse for gamers

If you're the type of gamer who digs alternative input devices, you might have a gander at the Wolfking Warrior gamepad (sister site Massively has a review) and the Trooper gaming mouse (besides, any gadget named after an Iron Maiden song is worth a head turn). Both units have gotten an update in the new MVP series, with the Warrior USB 2.0 55-key circular gamepad receiving a style update in the form of deep black audio keys to match its matte black finish. The Trooper delivers a frame rate in excess of 7080 frames per second, up to 45ips and 20g high speed motion detection, 2400 dpi resolution, onboard LED displays and a Rapid Fire Switch function button that lets you select your rate of fire from 1 to 4 shots per click. The MVP Series versions will be coming in at $34.99 for the Warrior and $59.99 for the Trooper.

that mouse looks just like a hybrid logitech/microsoft mouse, lol :D

Yeah, that looks *a lot* like my mx518.

That gamepad makes me wonder if there is any input device that would allow me to type and mouse with just my left hand, leaving my right hand free to write. That would be very handy. Anybody know if this exists?

Could you just get a less ergonomic mouse and learn to use it with your left hand? Do you really need to type with one hand and write with the other at the same time?

If so, you should get that act on the road and quickly.

They spelled it Tropper in the images and headings, and Trooper in the description.

Is Wolf King associated with Wolf Claw? Because this product is a complete rip-off of Wolf Claw Devour - http://www.wolf-claw.com/eboutique/product.php#3
Wolf Claw's product was first on the market, I own a Devour for like 1.5 year now and love it :)

Looks like it might be just a Singapore knock-off.

However, every product on that page says "This product is not available at the moment."

But then again, what do i know - I'm just a random surfer :)

Operating system support?

I prefer a logitech dual action and a mouse. Moving your fingers? Uggh.
--that's the same attitude that made me ditch qwerty for colemak ;)

I've used the Wolf Claw gaming keyboard for a while, and I really like it. It's very well-designed. What I'd really like is a wireless version of the Warrior, since I like to play on my HDTV. I'm not all concerned by whatever minor latency issues arise with wireless vs. wired, I don't want cables running across my floor. Then I could hide the Warrior easily when my girlfriend comes over (she loves to mock me for having a "gaming" keyboard).
