flameboy Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 ok so 1st post off my wii! generally not too bad. (hmmm strange when trying 2 put the full stop after bad it kept typing bad.us, thought i wanted website) so yeah think its pretty good, faster than I expected! but text is too small unzoomed! anyway gonna go see what works- msn web messenger?!
Guest Stefkov Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 I like it, love the predicted text. Hopefully they'll sort out the zoom. It's a lot faster loading than my pc (seeing if smilies work aswell) Love how it loads my gamercard and avatar aswell
Stocka Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 You guys tried http://www.wiicade.com? Some of the stuff is pretty fun,but even there the zoom is irritating. Shame web messenger doesn`t work
Nicktendo Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 try iloveim.com that has msn messenger working on the wii browser.
conzer16 Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 Wii browser just crashed my Wii. It was working fine last night. Edit: from my Wii, seems to work now.
martinist Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 yeay! my very first post using the wii browser, the text is really kind of small. Maybe they'll sort that out in the full version.
Charlie Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 wii porn ftw I was just thinking that... [posted from my Wii]
Sarka Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 Ooh! I like the browser, nice and fast. Apart from typing that is... though I'm getting more used to it as I type this post, yay! I'm gonna play Wiiarcade now!
conzer16 Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 Okay. Now could someone try this for me please Point you Wii Browser to http://www.pandora.com Point it to http://www.ucd.ie Does the Browser try to load both pages twice and then redirects to the Wii homepage!???
Charlie Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 I hope they fix the zoom so you can zoom into what you want instead of only 1 level of zoom.
Stocka Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 I`ve started to have some problems with it, like pages not loading and stuff
c0Zm1c Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 Is it fast? Compared to the DS version it's greased lightning!
Gizmo Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 Anybody found a way to get on an IRC server with the Wii?
Pit-Jr Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 browsing and typing with the Wiimote is cool but a little too slow and blurry at the moment. I havent read this thread yet but this is a trial version right, meaning well be paying for it later?

Adrian DX Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 I agree with most of the cons posted here, but my biggest wish for the full version is USB keyboard support. Nintendo could team up with Logitech and make a tiny wireless Wii keyboard. Other than that i'm impressed with this trial version of the browser. [posted on a Wii]
AshMat Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 A bluetooth Wii keyboard would be nice. Also, i'd like one mroe BETA before it's finished. Just fill my screen, and don't crash my Wii int he middle of Pure Pwnage. Wiicade.com is pretty good. Try out Mouse 1.0
Gaijin von Snikbah Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 I think I remember something about motion enabled character input.
AshMat Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 Can't watch movies on IGN. But the websites slow as fuck on my PC and Wii anyway.
Dyson Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 You probably won't see that until the full version. aerisdies.com worked fine for me, popups are a pain though. Have to spam the back button a few times - tabbed browsing please!
Zell Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 1st post from my wii, seems pretty decent, youtube works fine, could do with more levels of zoom though. Happy browsing!
flameboy Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 think usb keyboard support would be great, but not sure if Nintendo would implement it. At the end of the day the Wii is meant as a family console..with the Wii in the lounge or whatever so having a keyboard lying around isn't gonna happen is it? They'd much rather have you browsering the net using the remote, to show how you can literally do everything with it. I'm hoping somebody makes a Wii styled (?) flash based MMO (free of course) that everyone will get into. gonna try this out on it: http://www.battleon.com/default.asp
Fuzpoy Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 arg! the browser crashed my wii, i was watching a video on google and it locked up and the hand wouldn't move, i had to pull the power cable in the end.
Fruitgun Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 Hooray for Wii! I must admit, writing takes forever, and the text is pretty small, but this is still awesome! Hello from Wii World!
