Wii and my Digi Camera

[niner49]

Pretty cool for the non technical guy!

I bought the wife a Cannon Digi camera for Christmas, and the kids got a Wii...OK so what right?

Well my 11 year old calls me into to the TV room last night and says "check this out Dad!" next thing I see is all of our photos flashing across the big screen set to music and fading in and out!!!

She was going through a bunch of Menus and found a a video option so she just pulled the video card out of the camera and plugged it into the video slot on the Wii and Bam it automatically uploaded images and started the presentaions! she could change music and set the times way cool!

Try it if you have a Wii.

Thank God the "G" rated video card was in the camera at the time.

When I got my wii I saw that it could do that...tried it out and it worked great...good ol nintendo...gotta love the Wii!!!! Make sure to use that lil strap especially if you get a little angry sometimes...doesn't make a good TV ornament

More

Man I am learning more and more each time I play with this this thing,

I found the usage timer also! Kids fight over who plays more so i just set the built in timer and Bam problem solved!

If some of you other users have found some tricks please let me know, I have yet to figure out the internet thing? how to hook it up and download the games is a little advanced for me. If you have done this fill me in do I use a wireless router or do I have to plug it into to my computer or can I get the internet just by pluggin it into the phone line?

search youtube for a video about using a Wii to make your TV seem 3D. when they adopt it to first person shooters, it will be awesome!
