It was such a strange (but wonderful!) experience, that I had to verify I actually posted using the computer. It works, alright, and although you can't type quickly, it still works well. I played some of my old presents on the Internet Channel! Now I'm going to sleep...

Here's an interesting "feature" I found with the text predictor. I was typing "bulb" into it. The predictor had three words: bulb, bulbs, and Bulbasaur. Clearly it was made by Nintendo!

I made this post on my crappy computer >:(. Well, I guess there are some advantages to using a computer, like smaller fonts & the ability to use the keyboard during flash games. When I get my Wii (hopefully) this christmas, I'll be able to join in on your fun.

Is everything Nintendo promised (like support for flash nd AJAX) in the beta web browser?

So YouTube works on it? Nice. It'll make viewing so much easier.

Too bad my connection is gone. Maybe I can take my Wii to work and connect there...
As a game that requires six friends, an HDTV, and skill, I can see why the majority of TMK is going to hate on it hard.

When I first saw this topic, I went nuts. Oh sure, I'll bet the cat's been out of the bag for months now, but it's interesting that the Wii is probably the first mainstream console to have full-fledged Internet capabilities other than online gaming.

By the way, I need a Wii. Badly. Gimmie!

It can open MPEGs and MP3s, but that's a secret, and, considering the source, probably illegal.

So, Saturn, Dreamcast, and PS3 weren't mainstream?  Or, PS2, GameCube, Xbox, if counting unofficial methods.  And DS and PSP if counting handhelds.  Certainly the Wii is the most accessible and fully-featured of them all, though.

« Reply #23 on: December 23, 2006, 04:42:47 PM »
I would not consider the Saturn mainsteam and the Dreamcast barely mainstream. The PS3 only came out one day earlier. The DS browser isn't in our country yet.

Glorb is fairly correct.

It's a simple "hack." Clearly that's just a system for controlling one's house that is accessible via the Internet. And that person is accessing it with the Wii.

It isn't a hack at all. And yes, it should be accessible on the PS3, if it has Internet and a browser.
That was a joke.

Hi, guys! I finally got my Wii today and downloaded the internet channel!

It's actually pretty fun. The on-screen keyboard is decent and somewhat reminds me of Animal Crossing for some reason. Admittably, it is kinda slow, but it gets the job done. Still, it's fun typing on the TV.

Overall, I like it. Maybe not as convenient as a computer, but I enjoy it.

Slow? My Wii is a decent distance from the router, and it appeared to be just as fast as my computer.

« Reply #32 on: December 25, 2006, 11:06:16 PM »
I meant that typing on the on-screen keyboard is slow, but I kinda said it in a way that made it seem I was calling the browser slow. The Wii browser is pretty fast. I can't tell the difference between the Wii browser and my computer speed-wise. Sorry about that ^^;. Most of my comments in my post made on the Wii browser were generated towards the on-screen keyboard used for typing.

Ah-ha! You are correct, the on screen keyboard is somewhat painful to use. Auto-completion helps, usually, but you just can't replace QWERTY. OR DVORAK! Please don't hit me!

Maybe that'll be implemented with the final version of the browser. Or a firmware update for system-wide functionality.

July.  You can still download it through all of June.

The best features have to be the fact that it takes up the whole screen (adjustable size so you don't have to be in the safe zone, toggle out the toolbar on the bottom), and the fact that you can use the control pad to scroll (instead of doing nothing and having the most annoying scrolling ever with the B button).
