That's the shitty kitty. However, it takes me turning my tv stand (aka, used to be my dresser) 90 degrees. Everything else is beans ('kay, Elebits and Wii Sports), except the LOL, BUY THE CUBE ZELDA WITHOUT THE FISHING. ):Quote:
The environment will have a large role in your experience with the Wii. If you find it more of a hassle than it's worth, the console will quickly become a novelty item.
Also, PSP is awesome, everyone shut up, you're making it bad.
I'm almost sure that height of the bar and the distance from the TV affecting gameplay are all things that will be fixed during the calibration process -- which is never done during these demo events.
This is a system, and controller, that will have to be setup properly corresponding to the space you're going to play it in and personal preference.
Don't you think that with a demo that will be reported on for lots of people to see they would try their damndest not to look like complete idiots and have everything set up perfectly? I hate all these excuses. "OH NO THE PS3S AREN'T VENTILATED ENOUGH" or "OH NO THE WII ISN'T SET UP RIGHT"...horseshit.
I think it's all speculation until we've got real hands-on time with the units. I've heard everything on the sensor bar's optimal distance being from 4 - 10 feet. That's alot of leeway, and if it's a consumer product from Nintendo experience has shown that they build a lot of leeway into their hardware. This isn't excuses, this is speculation based on experience. It could be wrong, but I doubt it. Talk to me November 21 and I'll have final word on the subject.

This probably applies to about 3/5 of the entire Wii library for me, same as it was with the GC. On the other hand...Quote:

WTF? I can't play Samba de Amigo in my room because of the lack of space, so where the hell am I supposed to put this? "Buy a new stand?" Fuck that noise.Quote:
If the sensor bar is placed to low, like on some people's home TV stands, aiming will become almost impossible. The stand that holds my plasma HDTV is already low profile so when watch TV the monitor is at eye level while I sit. If I was to place the sensor below my TV, in its current position, I would have to aim my wrist almost at my feet just to get a center view with the remote. On the other hand, if I was to place the bar on top of my TV I would be aiming at the ceiling just to hit something. Because the Wiimote is so sensitive, you really need to the bar as close to your arm level as possible for the best performance. For people like me, this may prove to be impossible without a new stand.
