Forums - Nintendo - Wii LCD screen

http://gear.ign.com/articles/798/798424p1.html

June 21, 2007 - Japanese manufacturer Century has unveiled a LCD designed specifically for Wiis on the move. The 7-inch display is fixed upon a platform designed specifically to hold the Wii console, complete with a properly positioned cutout for the Wii's exhaust port.



The screen boasts an integrated sensor bar to minimize hassle, and an attached converter box allows both the console and screen to draw power from the Wii's AC adapter while also tidily managing the video and sensor bar connections. Car adapters are also said to be available.



The LCD is scheduled to launch on June 25th in Japan for 14,800 Yen, which translates to about $120 US. No word on the possibility of an American launch at this point in time.

 

I think its pretty nifty.

anyone else?

If it wasnt for MGS4, the PS3 is unnecessary

I like. If I travelled a lot I would get one.

sweet id deffinatly get 1



I don't know, I would have to see it being used. You could sit with it on your lap and use the remote very well at all and if you had it sitting far enough away to even use the remote it would be just so small. I guess it wouldn't be bad for VC games since you can navigate the menu using the Classic Controller but it just seems silly. Then again, all the mini LCD's that connects to systems seem silly to me.

I dunno...I think the appeal of the Wii is when you have a nice, large, open living room to run around in while playing. If this was in a car, for kids in the backseat perhaps...but otherwise it'd be kinda lame...just buy a $30 small TV or something. Pointing would be too difficult on that small of a screen.

Bet with disolitude: Left4Dead will have a higher Metacritic rating than Project Origin, 3 months after the second game's release.  (hasn't been 3 months but it looks like I won :-p )

Indeed, bringing the WII with a LCD Screen on board of a car, asks for real serious accidents.



This profile is no longer in use, see my other profile *~Onna76~*

I imagine it would work with games where you hold the remote sideways, or use the classic/GC controller. Trying to use the pointer function with that would probably not go to well. =/



as a VC machin I would love it, but otherwise no...



 

 

Buy it and pray to the gods of Sigs: Naznatips!

This is an amazing accessory for the Wii.
