User:Curtmack/Wii editing

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

With the new Opera browser available for free (temporarily), I thought it might be fun to take a whack at editing via my (friend's) Wii (take that how you will). This page is being typed entirely with the Wiimote.

For the most part, Opera for the Wii works kinda well. The Flash player is crap, but the rest of the system works marginally well.

Big problems come in when you actually look at a site. The resolution of the browser sucks (600x480?!). As such, viewing any webcomic is near impossible as the zoom controls are difficult to manage.

Typing with the Wiimote is annoying as all get out. The auto-complete feature speeds things along greatly, but unless you're typing a very long word, it will never occur to you to use it. In addition, it sometimes insists you're typing something special and completes without your prompt (ending a sentence with the traditional period makes it think you're typing a URL).

In conclusion, Wii Opera sucks.us
