Hey guys, I just got a Wii and I'm lost.  What am I supposed to download, how do I download and stuff like that.  Basically I am reading about this Opera thing, and I have no clue how to get it.  Also, how do I adjust the controller, in the options it only gives 2 things I can do, sensitivity and the location of the sensor bar.  It is a little off right now, is there a way I can fix this other than moving the sensor bar?

Did you read the directions?  That's all you have to do to adjust the controller: set the sensitivity (make sure you see only two lights).  Just make sure the sensor bar is centered above or below your TV.  As for Opera, go to the store and go to Wii Ware to download it.

If you sit in front of your tv make sure the sensor bar is centered on the tv, I set off to the side on my couch so I turn the sensor bar facing me.

Ummm alright I set the sensitivity and everything, but it is still a little off.  It is really noticable when you use the slingshot in Zelda, isn't there some sort of calibration thing?

Yes, I got myself the Wii too, and I also find the cursor precision a bit disappointing. No way to really adjust it properly from the Wii system. In Wii Sports you have to accept this.

But luckily in Zelda, you can adjust it better. Go to Options, then you will see the option to adjust the cursor (you will have to press the "+" button to enter these cursos adjustments).

You will get three adjustment steps. First you can set the vertical displacement using the remote directional button (the cross). Then the second adjustment asks you to resize a red bar that is displayed on screen until it fits the real size of the sensor bar. Another third adjustment asks you to stand at the "correct" distance from the screen (to try and match the cursor size with the one displayed on screen).

This is very useful and much better than the default. And IMHO this should be available at the Wii System Settings for all games to have proper calibration automatically...

Here`s my Wii number by the way. You can add me to the address book (at the Wii Bulletin Board, the envelope at the bottom right of the main menu) 8153 9767 6880 2727 and send me any messages you need...

EDIT: I have to add your Wii Number too, for us to be albe to exchange messages and Miis. So if you add me, post your number here too (you can find it on the cover of your address book at the bulletin board)...

If you back away from the TV, standing up, the cursor works perfectly for me. I think that it's all positioning, though. When I get close to my TV it does that...

Excellent, Zelda is now 100% perfect.  Now just have to position myself oddly everytime i go through the menu...

I have one new question, can I import games, and is Bleach for the Wii any good.  It should be out right?
