Rummy Posted December 4, 2006 Posted December 4, 2006 Half, if not more, of those warning pictures mean nothing to me. Them japanese are crazy suckers.
conzer16 Posted December 5, 2006 Posted December 5, 2006 Will Japanese and US Wii Remotes work on European Consoles?
Charlie Posted December 5, 2006 Posted December 5, 2006 Hardware is traditionally multi-region, I see no reason why the Wii's stuff wont be.
conzer16 Posted December 5, 2006 Posted December 5, 2006 I'm not very knowledgeable on Bluetooth and the like, but I imagined the US/Jap ones having a different frequency or something. Thats good news. Ill pick up some stuff when im in the States. http://www.game.co.uk/ViewProduct.aspx?cat=11371&mid=329931 Component cable available to preorder on GAME.co.uk for release on 8th December.
ShadowV7 Posted December 6, 2006 Posted December 6, 2006 Release date for Opera Browser is Saturday the 23rd of December 2006. Source Nintendo of Sweden. Nu har datumet spikats för när webbläsaren gÃ¥r att ladda hem till Wii. Det blir alltsÃ¥ frÃ¥n och med den 23 december som du kan börja surfa pÃ¥ tv:n via Wii (om du har en bredbandsuppkoppling). Wii Shop Channel – där du kan ladda hem klassiska spel frÃ¥n Nintendo och andra spelföretag – finns sÃ¥ klart tillgänglig frÃ¥n dag ett.

OMG, they spoilt Reggie's surprise Xmas present to us!!11!1 Well, if this is true, then that's good to hear. (Of course, I hope that wasn't all Nintendo had planned)
AshMat Posted December 6, 2006 Posted December 6, 2006 That'll probably be the big Christmas suprise tbh.
ShadowV7 Posted December 6, 2006 Posted December 6, 2006 That'll probably be the big Christmas suprise tbh. Wouldn't surprise me. Does any know when the Weather and News channels are out over here or in the US.I can't remember the US dates
Spark Posted December 6, 2006 Posted December 6, 2006 Does anybody know if a standard pc usb>ethernet adaptor will work with this thing ? I really don't fancy the idea of waiting for the official one, and Mario64 must be downloaded.
ultrajamie Posted December 6, 2006 Posted December 6, 2006 I would love one of these: come next summer you'll be able to get one... and a wii to match
blender Posted December 6, 2006 Posted December 6, 2006 come next summer you'll be able to get one... and a PS3 to match corrected .........
Samdecahedron Posted December 6, 2006 Posted December 6, 2006 I would love one of these: My god that remote looks so ugly, and i can't put my finger on why. And i prefer the white, looks much better.

I really don't fancy the idea of waiting for the official one, and Mario64 must be downloaded. Yes, it does/should do/I hope so. I've bought one especially, and as it supports one kind of adapter (the official one), I would presume that the required drivers are built into the console.
Dante Posted December 6, 2006 Posted December 6, 2006 Nintendo Sweden has revealed that the release date for Opera Web Browser will be on December 23rd, 2006 in Europe. So get downloading as soon as you can! It also sounds like the possible release date in North America as well. www.codenamerevolution.com
Goron_3 Posted December 6, 2006 Posted December 6, 2006 Matt from IGN is currently playing a Wii game that no one knows is even in development for the system...and he's gone to florida to play it. A n-space game maybe? Maybe a sequel to Geist is on the cards...

It depends on wether the driver files are generic though, and also wether ethernet support is even built into the console yet, they may be launching it as an update when the official adaptor is released, if they want to be proper bastards about it that is.

I'm going with it being built in, as all signs point towards that being the case.
Dante Posted December 6, 2006 Posted December 6, 2006 This Sony patent has pop-up online, which is about a Wii-like pointer tech that was made 20 months ago.
flameboy Posted December 7, 2006 Posted December 7, 2006 Apparently the wiimote has been hacked to work with Half Life 2: http://www.joystiq.com/2006/12/07/todays-hottest-game-video-wiimote-control-half-life-2/
Colin Posted December 7, 2006 Posted December 7, 2006 That Half-Life 2 Wiimote thing looks impossible to control. I suppose it's a start for people who want to adapt it in someway to work with PC games. Also, does anyone know the beef about RGB cables? Like have Game got the official ones in at all, or have they got their own brand ones in either?
Cube Posted December 7, 2006 Posted December 7, 2006 Also, does anyone know the beef about RGB cables? Like have Game got the official ones in at all, or have they got their own brand ones in either? 11th December I think they are due in.
