mimo Posted June 29, 2007 Share Posted June 29, 2007 Just got my Wii, not even unpacked it yet! Anxious to get Opera Browser sorted before I have to pay, Do I need to get a Wii card? Got to get this sorted and find someone with a wireless connection that I can borrow! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antron Posted June 29, 2007 Share Posted June 29, 2007 All you need is a wireless connection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BydoEmpire Posted June 29, 2007 Share Posted June 29, 2007 You can also buy a USB adapter if you want to use a wired connection, but I haven't tried that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mimo Posted June 29, 2007 Author Share Posted June 29, 2007 Wii accesories are hard to get hold of here, and I want to do it today! Just got back from the store with a wireless router, well it was about time really Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbanes Posted June 29, 2007 Share Posted June 29, 2007 You'd better hurry up and get it downloaded. The last day for a free Opera download is tomorrow (IIRC). If it's not downloaded by that time you'll need to shell out $5 to get it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mimo Posted June 30, 2007 Author Share Posted June 30, 2007 thats why I bought the Wii before I can afford it!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtariJr Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 i told you guys people would buy wii systems to save 5 bucks.... that was good marketing by nintendo to have it free up until a certain time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've noticed two things...first, when praising the Wii, you always seem to do so largely based on games that don't exist yet, and will only hypothetically be released "This Fall". Second, you always make sure to go out by downplaying another console, whether or not it's even been mentioned in the topic at hand. If you didn't have such a huge amount of posts here and your grammar was better, i'd accuse you of being a plant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King_Salamon Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 (edited) I find myself enjoying using the Wii Internet Browser... nice to sit on the couch and surf on the big screen. By the way... I've played some Wiicade games which were fun and watching Youtube is always interesting (getting caught up on some old cartoons!) LOL! I finally went out a couple weeks ago and bought the wifi adaptor and downloaded some stuff. Now to get some games. I think the Crush Pinball game will be next. Now that you are online, you should get Mario Strikers and play against people online! That should be awesome... in Canada we have to wait until the end of July but I'll be getting a copy soon after release!

To be honest For awhile I thought he was like 12 or something....at least then you could give him a pass. Back on topic... When you are on the Wii menu, does the internet channel show Trial Version for everyone at this point? I figured I log in and snag the latest browser but I don't see anywhere you can update it and it says trial version and even has some spiel when I open it. Seems to work fine though. Does it just update itself and will it always say Trial Version or am I missing something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King_Salamon Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 I just downloaded it a couple days ago and I don't recall seeing trial version anywhere... where does it show the words trial version Moycon? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moycon Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 I had to go back in once the full version was available and re-download it in the Shop Channel. Oh Ok, Just re-download it and it will overwrite my old trial version. Cool. Going to do that now. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
