Wii Sensor Bar Can’t Take Sunlight?

October 9th, 2006

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.

Of course, if direct sunlight is shining into your sensor bar, it’s likely that it’s also shining directly into your TV, in which case you wouldn’t be able to see what you’re doing anyway.
