NYKO Technologies Inc., leading innovator and manufacturer of accessory products for video game fans, has introduced the RF MAX 900, a patented wireless accessory that delivers the RF wireless gaming experience to owners of the world's most popular video gaming systems including Sony PlayStation, Nintendo 64, SNES and Sega DreamCast.

Using state-of-the-art 900MHz wireless RF (radio frequency) technology, NYKO's RF MAX 900 accessory eliminates line-of-sight interference common with infrared (IR) type wireless devices. This means that kids and family pets can run between the TV and an active player without interrupting the action.

Another benefit of this advanced RF technology is that it is able to transmit signals up to 30 feet away, allowing gamers to play comfortably from the sofa instead of huddled on the carpet in front of the TV set. The RF MAX 900 may even be used with multi-player games.

In addition, 900MHz technology allows the gaming action to continue nonstop; there is no lag in transmitting signals that could slow up the game in process -- a problem commonly associated with infrared-type devices. And because wires never get in the way of a game's twists and turns, playing action is smoother and more natural than ever before.

Designed for owners of PlayStation, Nintendo systems (N64 and SNES) and the soon-to-be-released Sega DreamCast, the NYKO RF MAX 900 is scheduled for late-spring delivery to major game and toy retailers with a suggested retail price of $39.95. The RF MAX 900 was designed and manufactured in the United States.
