Wiimote calibration to TV size? Pitfalls of a bigscreen...

[courtwshr1]

I just upgraded my 32" to a 52" widescreen and now my Wiimote accuracy absolutely STINKS. Of course I have gone into settings and told the Wii that I now have a widescreen and my sensor is above the TV, but even still: 1) The cursor is a few degrees below where the wiimote actually points, and 2) The wii seems to "think" my TV is smaller meaning that if I point 5 degrees to the right....the cursor actually goes 10 degrees to the right - meaning it thinks I'm at the edge of the TV set, even if I'm only half-way there. Is there any way to calibrate/configure the Wii or Wiimote so it knows how big my TV is?

Is it possible that you're still adjusting from the 32" to 52"? That's quite a jump in display size, congrats! I have a 42" display and I imagine I too would need a while to adjust to a larger display like a 60", wishful thinking .

I've got a 55' tv and its the only tv i've ever played Wii on. Well I demoed a game at gamestop on their 27ish inch tv and it was very different as opposed to a larger screen. My sensitivity is at 3 and that works for me. Might take some getting used to for you. (congrats on the tv!)

Well you shouldn't have "brang that up" -.- Take it to a remotely relevant thread.

I don't really find that I need time to adjust when switching TV size. Before Christmas I had a 12" CRT TV in my room (I now have a gorgeous 19" LCD ^_^), which I used for my Wii, but once or twice I brought the Wii downstairs and hooked it up to the main family TV, which I think is somewhere around 30", and I didn't have any difficulty manipulating the pointer. But it might just be me, or the fact that I sit further back from the TV when I'm in the living room, or something.
