NintendoRevo Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 My God its fast. I am watching the trailers for the movie "300" atm on youtube. Damn its fast. Can't wait for the full version. I'll have my LCD TV then too hehe
Mike Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 I'm using it now! Pretty cool, but I agree with most of the niggles posted here. Hopefully they'll be sorted in the full version.
EchoDesiato Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 Aw shits, can't connect to the shop channel. Keep getting error 051340.
Charlie Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 I can't get it until I get home from school. What's the speed like? Better than Opera DS?
ndreamer Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 i made a flash/php/javascript based mp3 player for the wii you can upload it to your server (remote or local) then put all your mp3 files in the media folder then just point your browser to index.php. ill be adding playlist support and a few other things this week you can download the first version here. http://filemega.com/files/wiicaster_mp3.zip
The Peeps Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 The only problem I have is with the zooming. I can't read the text when zoomed out but I have to scroll sideways whenever I'm zoomed in because it goes too far. I really like the predictive text though, it makes typing a lot faster. An address bar would be good too. Weebl and Bob works woo!!
Tellyn Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 I can't get it until I get home from school. What's the speed like? Better than Opera DS? About 3 seconds slower than my broadband, uber quick.
Fresh Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 Seems to all work fine, however the only problem i have is you can't highlight text.
Jasper Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 Lovelt. Simple and fast. I never thought they could pull it of in such a gracious and through-thought way, but they did it. It works and it's fast. Nothing near as slow as I expected and far away from what the DS Browser is capable of. Now if Nintendo could get the Shop Channel running this fast, Wii's off for aa spectaaculair internetianal (see how I made up a word here?) start. Looks and feels great, and N-europe is again one of my favourites. The things certainly made a good impression. And it's incredibly small in size (about 200 blocks, that's no more than 64 Mb). Ow wait, for a browser, that's pretty big. anyway, the only downside was the loading and downloading in the shop channel. It took for ages and the 'classic' sounds that accompany the download are annoying if you hear them to much. Ah well, it's time for some Opera....
Chuck Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 using it to post! its pretty blurred unzoomed
AshMat Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 It's awesome man. I'm watching Pure Pwnage (google video) on my tv. and it's incredibly fast. After this, i don't know what to do, i've done everything i wanted tot do (PP on TV).
Nintenchris Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 Hmmm only niggle i have is that it dont fill my screen... oh and i agree it is fast ... alot faster than i thought it would be!
DiemetriX Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 wii porn ftw Hells yeah. Flash powered porn movies ftw.
AshMat Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 It's crashed a couple of times int he middle of a pure pwnage episode. Maybe i need to move the cursor around every now and then, because i got through a whole episode the first time, and i was constantly moving it.
BlueStar Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 Posting from my Wii Pressing 2 makes it much easier to read posts for me!
BGS Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 The only problem I have is with the zooming. I can't read the text when zoomed out but I have to scroll sideways whenever I'm zoomed in because it goes too far. yeah that annoyed me too. Try pressing the two button if you're going to read an entire thread? makes the text super big and fit on a single page but it's too slow to scroll through for scanning a page quick Hells yeah. Flash powered porn movies ftw. yeah, this really is the best use i've found for this thing so far! oh, its really tricky making long posts i've just found out. You can't highlight and delete text and you can only see two lines you're typing at a time. Eek. Also for single letter words like 'i' and 'a' why does predictive first type a > instead? overall it is much faster and capable than i ever expected.
Bluejay Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 Hello, typing this from my Wii. LOLOLOL PIRATES Man, that took a while. Liar. Ctrl C + Ctrl V on your PC.
Samdecahedron Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 This really is much faster than i ever imagined, i was hoping i could use web messenger, but sadly no luck.us
Teppo Holmqvist Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 BTW guys... http://wiinintendo.net/2006/11/30/web-design-guide-for-opera-browser-on-wii/ Above link has web design guide for doing your own, Wii optimize webpages. It tells what resolution Nintendo itself uses on shop channel, what fonts are used, etc. Could be useful if someone is doing portal.
Zombie_Fan Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 My first post from my Wii! Thank you Nintendo for the early Christmas preasent.
