Posted June 29, 2006 Thats what i was thinking hellfire, to Synchronize the data.But i have to agree with jordan to an extent, if the SYNC button was for the controller, wouldnt it of been on the sensor bar? No, the sensor bar is just a device that picks up signals. The console is the device that handles all the data, also the controller data. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 29, 2006 All I can say is WOOW to this :shock: Nintendo are doing so well in design lately... The sensor bar even looks amazing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 29, 2006 Thats what i was thinking hellfire, to Synchronize the data.But i have to agree with jordan to an extent, if the SYNC button was for the controller, wouldnt it of been on the sensor bar? i've been wondering for a while how the wii will know wich controller is p1 p2 ect. the senser bar is for the motion sensing. i think we will turn the system on then it will search for on controller then it will ask p1 to press A then p2 and ect. to get rid of a player turn his controller off to add a player turn his controller on and press a. the sync button will probably allow us to have our controller set in advance to what player they are. to set this we hold down the sync button while on the min menue the wii will ask you to press the A button on the p1 controller ect. and so when we turn the wii on it will otomaticaly know who's p1 ect. we will probably need to lable are controllers then or have 4 different colours of them.

Posted June 30, 2006 Anyone with a Wavebird should understand that AA batteries r all you'll need. This thing isn't going to be like a mobile phone and require charging ever night. It's going to use AAs and last for weeks, so what's thew point of it being rechargable when you'll only need to recharge it once a month? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted June 30, 2006 the site was sdown yesterday, so i couldnt come on Anyhoo, the first pic a he top of the page, mad it brighter, couldnt see anything and youd all know, butits the SD card slot, but its in the middle Some nice new pics. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 30, 2006 Are those USB ports? If so woah! That really shows how small the console is. And yes...I have done the 3dvd case thing but still when you put them down and your mind wanders you still think the console is "normally" sized. This pic shows how tiny the wii is!

Posted June 30, 2006 Why there is a hole in the stand? weird... I mentioned that the page before this, the current guess is for the vent, but the vent seems to be on the back with the power supply. I guess its going to be used to secure the Wii console in place, so the corner that slides into the stand will hold it securely in place. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 30, 2006 All wireless controllers (bar the wavebird) have to be synced to the console to be calibrated and to work. AFAIK, the DS is simply running through an adapated bluetooth local wireless signal to the Wii, in which case it wouldn't need syncing. The wavebirds didn't use any snycing since you had to manually sync them (put the controller and reciver on the same frequency). Since the wii has the reciver on the inside you need a sny button to tie a controller to the system. As for the hole it is more than likely for air flow.

Posted June 30, 2006 Maybe the SYNC button is for syncronising the console with the Connect24 thingy ma bob. Cus if you've had it off for a while there might be a load of goodies waiting for you and you'd need to syncronise with it all. Or maybe I'm talking crap and it will just syncronise automatically. I bet 1p on my guess! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 30, 2006 you do realise thats a racial ryhm from not that long ago now, only their was no ds involved. so i wouldnt go round singing it and claimin you came up with it as it could be seen as somthing you dont want You're a loser. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 30, 2006 Wow, nice pics!! Can't wait to get mine! "Does it come in black?" [/batman Begins quote ] Anyone with a Wavebird should understand that AA batteries r all you'll need. This thing isn't going to be like a mobile phone and require charging ever night. It's going to use AAs and last for weeks, so what's thew point of it being rechargable when you'll only need to recharge it once a month? Indeed. I love my Wavebird, it's great to just use AA's and not having to worry about recharging them every few hours*. (*Okay, a slight exadgeration maybe? :P) Are those USB ports? If so woah! That really shows how small the console is. And yes...I have done the 3dvd case thing but still when you put them down and your mind wanders you still think the console is "normally" sized. This pic shows how tiny the wii is! Looks about right to me. I'm truly amazed by how small this console really is, and I thought the Gamecube was small! How the heck can they cram all the extra power into something smaller though? O_o Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted June 30, 2006 What's that red plug-in thing next to the power cord? I'm talking about the back of the console. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 30, 2006 Correct me if I'm wrong, I think that's the socket for the sensor bar. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted July 1, 2006 Should this mean something? Maybe it's the Hi-speed port we used to have on GC? maybe it is where the rummored DVD (and sound?) planned expansion goes? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 1, 2006 Well I searched for this old patent pic and now we can understand some things. First we can see that there is in fact a vent hole that goes exactly with the hole in the stand (however as the stand is on the floor it won't get much air....) Second there's that little thing pedrocas mentioned. It looks something where we would put a small battery...Or where the dvd will be...(but why there's need for a screw?)

Posted July 1, 2006 Modding chip? =S I hardly know anything about this stuff, so i cant detect if your being sarcastic or not.. WAIT ONE MINUTE! Were the hell am i expected to put my cube memory cards? Im not sure whether its in the other compartment in the pictures because its too damn dark. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 1, 2006 i like the fact the wii-mote has become very dvd remote-esk, with the pause and the return button. maybe its even used for when playing dvds. oh btw demonmike. if u go back up to the other picture it would appear that that whole top side of the console opens. so you have the opening with the 4 cube control ports and then behind is the other flap which would appear to house the memory cards.
