Also released was the Microsoft X-Box 360 HD-DVD drive and surprisingly next to the more popular Blu-Ray the same movie on HD-DVD in 1080p looks like true High Definition that we are expecting. The same can not be said of the Blu-Ray movies as they are grainy and pixelated when shown in 1080p.

The Nintendo Wii soon followed the release of the Sony PS3, two days later, and NintenTards as they are called, flocked to swoop up the promised by Nintendo plenty of available Wii's at N.A. launch. But surprisingly less than promissed was to be found at retail locations. While many retail stores had silent raffles a day before in order to avoid the Wal-Mart craze of last year. The few fortunate ones that did receive their Wii's seemed much less excited and pleased once they finally had a chance to take their Wii for a spin. Many excuses keep flowing from the Nintendo-faithful spouting for their beloved $250.00 Gamecube with Wii-Tard controller.

(With no light source the wii thinks the wi-mote is not pointed in the direction of the screen.)

The TV remote beside the kid proves nothing. In order to utilize a remote instead of the sensor bar you have to have at least 2 of them with someone HOLDING DOWN A BUTTON ON EACH and more importantly they have to be FACING THE wi-remote...

This is not exactally magic. Why shouldnt we believe it works?

On a side note, did you notice how dim the lighting was. I bet if you turned the lights up it would wash out the candle light and would no longer work.

anyway, i wanna know if you could use something like your body as an IR transmitter, mabey if you lay down and soaked your feet in hot water first, then aimed through your feet.... ]]>Nov 28th 2006 1:32PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/11/27/back-in-our-day-we-played-the-wii-by-candlelight/http://www.engadget.com/2006/11/27/back-in-our-day-we-played-the-wii-by-candlelight/Jun 30th 2008 12:04PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/11/27/back-in-our-day-we-played-the-wii-by-candlelight/http://www.engadget.com/2006/11/27/back-in-our-day-we-played-the-wii-by-candlelight/Nov 28th 2006 3:55PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/11/27/back-in-our-day-we-played-the-wii-by-candlelight/http://www.engadget.com/2006/11/27/back-in-our-day-we-played-the-wii-by-candlelight/Nov 28th 2006 4:00PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/11/27/back-in-our-day-we-played-the-wii-by-candlelight/http://www.engadget.com/2006/11/27/back-in-our-day-we-played-the-wii-by-candlelight/
Candles radiate heat. Heat radiation is infrared radiation. Therefore, you could probably use a radiator heater and it would work.]]>Dec 12th 2006 8:54PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/11/27/back-in-our-day-we-played-the-wii-by-candlelight/http://www.engadget.com/2006/11/27/back-in-our-day-we-played-the-wii-by-candlelight/Dec 15th 2006 8:11PM
