wii as a vampire


Destructoid reports that all is not well when it comes to the Nintendo Wii sensor and it's weakness to sunlight....apparently, the wii motion sensor can be made to go crazy in the presence of direct sunlight or halogen lights. while this doesn't really qualify it as being a vampire, it does throw out a red ( blood splattered) flag as to why it's vulnerable.

"We know that the sensor bar goes all wonky when halogen lights are in the room. But did you know that natural sunlight messes it up too? That’s right, if you have the sun beaming right onto the sensor bar, it doesn’t work. For about an hour or so, the sun shone right into the store, the two MP3:C kiosks had to have curtains above them, and the Wii Sports Tennis and Shooting Game kiosks were unplayable since they were “shrouded” in sunlight. Later the sun went behind a building, and everything was in working order again. So when you get your Wii, don’t play it in the sunlight. Or keep the sensor bar and TV away from the windows."
