What?

The designs "issues" are more to do with having to point at the interface rather then navigate it with the D Pad.... hence the large icons. HD has nothing to do with this.

Why are you being logical?

Another example of the limitations of SD.

This is a terrible interface, the SD is definately holding back the possibilty of a nice neat menu with lots of options on screen at once.

You're good with the sarcasm. Too good.

I don't really need a tag, but I figured I'd get one to make people jealous. Is it working?
What are you guys going to nickname your Wiis?

I think I'm going to go with Mr.Winky.

I don't think it really has to do with SD. The pages are laid out in order of importance. You don't want grandma accidentally clicking "Format System Memory" when she wants to set the sound settings.

Uh... You do realise SD is standard def right? Not the card. Just making sure:lol

Exactly.



It's because the wiimote is imprecise.

I believe you're never supposed to shut it off, remember?

It's a %^%^%^%&^ing menu.

Perhaps it doesn't use enough shaders.

You are slow aren't you? He said it was simple. You took it to the other extreme and looked like a monkey.

What are you supposed to comment on in a thread solely about Wii's interface? You either like it, or you don't. If someone thinks it's too simplistic, that's a valid complaint. For me, it's just not very appealing... sort of feels like one of those Walmart interfaces for Kodak pictures, only in White.

The blade system on the 360 looks great, and is simple. This one's just simple.

They want a grandma friendly interface. The X360 dashboard is great for us, but it's definitely not clean enough for the current non-gamers.

Don't like the screens with the black background. What were they thinking? The interface also looks unfinished which makes it hard to believe that they're final. A single channel just with a Wii logo on it? Sun 1/1? Not convinced yet. The big buttons make sense, though.

I guess. To each their own but when it comes to me, I want the most user friendly interface possible. Everything's clear and so easy to see which is exactly what I wanted and what I think chore-like parts of the experience need to be to make them as unintrusive and non-annoying as possible.

Then again, some people stress over the shape of a system so I guess that's their right/problem.

Why are people complaining now, at the sight of some fuzzy screencaps?

We saw the real thing in motion weeks ago:

http://us.wii.com/channel_menu.jsp

Everything is animated, so it doesn't seem static and dull, and there seems to be a nice zoom when you select a channel as well. Looks fine. The black screen are just config settings which you are only going to use once.

The screens may look kind of plain, but from the videos that have been shown, it seems like it has a lot of really cool animation. It certainly looks far better in motion. I can't wait to use it.

I don't like this menu^^, I need catagories. I'm biased yeah, but I don't like all apps being on the same menu when the apps are of different types (music, videos, weather, demo)

needs ORDER!

Aside from the shitty TV the screens were taken from, the interface looks functional. I wouldn't mind having to look at it.

Also, I'm glad sensor and display settings are handled by the system like X360. It just makes things a crapload easier. And about orgainization, there were repordetly options to use folders, right? Rather than having everything scattered about?

You're supposed to be able to organise your VC, apparently. I'm with you in that area.
