O M G It all makes sense now!

Im so proud of figuring it out, i feel like a detective . You'll probably think im stupid and this has been figured out already, but as you will havealready heard, there are rumours that the Wii will have a built in camera on the front of the console. Thats why the Wii is tilted at an upward angle! Of course, the peices are coming together now! This is probably because most people play with the console lower than them. What do you think? does this Re-inforce the built in camera idea, or do you still think it's BS and that the tilted angle is there just to look pretty?

Hehe, you're spot on. The camera functionality was confirmed a few days back.

Here's the thread with more details:

Yep. Under it, along with an SD card slot. There's definitly a picture on the net somewhere, but I can't remember which location. The camera is going to be on the front, which explains that weird tilt of the Wii.

If you see the new news, the wii hardware at e3 was not finialized, possible that a low res webcam will be added, why not you can go to walmart and get one for like $10 at retail, the actual lens to capture low res is probably really inexpensive for a huge company like nintendo and will win even more people to this console.

You're all forgetting something. The Wii can go horizontally or vertically. My guess is that it will be under the flap though, I don't think it'll be like the eye toy where you always have to be in range, I think it's just to take a picture (for the rumored caricature feature), then get back to your game.

I think that the wii vertically is best. In all the pictures it looks awkward because of the gamecube ports, but to me it would just feel different if it was on horizontally.
