Ya i mentioned this in the wii thread. If theres gonna be all these problems with the remote it won't sell well.

Yeah well, who is gonna be playing the wii in the middle of the sunlight? Nevermind the wii sensor bar not working, but you won't see the TV either o_0

Agreed. Close those shades bitches, play in absolute darkness.

doesn't even have to be absolute darkness. its just direct sunlight hitting the bar that interferes with it. so unless you have an exposed window opposite of your wii and you get direct sunlight through it, you wont have a problem.

Remember friends that this is Nintendo we are talking about and not Sony. This problem has probably been long worked out and a solution found. If not, dont play outside idiots.

personally im looking forward to sitting on the couch while my buddies try to hack and slash some zombie while i shine the sensor bar with a flash light. lol

I wonder what a lazer pointer would do.

LOL cbf trying to play against DS and him secretly fucking with the sensor to fuck me up loool

plus DarkenedSoul (CBF go back to Zaine or something that doesnt take forever to type) try to go outside friend! sunlight is GOOD hahaha
