One delete key and my personal calander was gone. It didn’t end up in trash, but it was gone. It was deleted. All the things I’ve done during the last 3 months was gone!!! If the school calendar was deleted, I wouldn’t be so angry.
This shows that no system is perfect.
Apple better fix up the issue for their Leopard version! Afterall, the prompts that appear in Windows for every action aren’t so annoying anymore..
Well, a lot of gamers are complaining one of the following: Either (a) Wiimotes hitting body parts, causing bruises or (b) Wiimotes flying off the wrist, hitting and damaging walls and TV screens.
Let me add my 2 cents worth:
People - I shall say Wii-gamers are stupid. Why on earth would people let go of the Wiimote? A piece of strap made in fabric isn’t going to prevent Wiimotes from breaking and flying off. I don’t know this theory is correct, but when the applied stress exceeds the yield stress of the material, it would result in irreversible deformation. Therefore, if people let go of the Wiimote when they swing it hard (say for example during a game of bowling in Wii Sports), there would be a greater chance of the string breaking because a greater stress is applied.
Some gamers are just plain stupid or have forgotten their common sense.
I gained a Pro status playing tennis on the Wiii. I am a profession at Wii Sports Tennis now….
Wish i can make a living out of playing video games.
So far I am impressed with the Wii. The sleek white style of the console and it’s accessories are quite similar to Apple products. It took a while to set up the internet connection - maybe because the Wii Shop hasn’t been set up properly. The manual setup is pretty easy as I put everything in place in less than 5 minutes - the sensor bar, the wiimote, nunchuk, AV cable and the power adaptor.
The user interface is pretty cool - simple and clean. Wii channels are organised into grids. The only downside about the Wii software is that there is no keyboard input at the moment. Hopefully nintendo will add that in since they have allowed two usb ports. The lack of technological advancement was already expected, so it didn’t really matter. All I wanted the most out of Wii is the gameplay - not the graphics and not the sound.
Wii Sports game was bundled with the Wii console. 5 types of games are included - Tennis, Boxing, Baseball, Golf and Bowling. Tennis, Bowling and Baseball was pretty easy to control, but it took a while for me to get the timing right. I found it rather difficult to control the wiimote for boxing and golf. Overall the games are quite fun to play with, but I thought the levels were too limited in the training mode.
Finally I am pleased to get my share of the Wii experience… The photos from the launch are in the gallery.
I went there, counted down, pulled party poppers and queued up for an hour and a half to get my Wiiiiiiiiiiii. I got my first game console in 5 years!!!!!
The feeling is bloody great! Play all day!
