This survey is open for everyone to add websites that are wii-friendly. This thread provides a list that could be later "bookmarked" on "Wii Opera" for easy reference.
WEBSITE RATINGS:
**** = Excellent
*** = Great
** = Ok
* = Bad
x = Horrible
? = Under Review
CRITERIA for RATING:
- Reliability: It doesn't hang the Opera Browser.
- Design: Ease of maneuvering website interface. Not much typing is involved. Flash websites are designed for "Point and Click" only.
- Utility: Frequency of visiting the website again and again.
- Ingenuity: Website is specifically and completely wii-friendly.
VIDEO
Google Video
- (****) Really easy interface and video screen fits well when zoomed in on the wii. No hangs or glitches are seen after viewing certain amounts of video.
YouTube
- (**) Not easy to maneuver and video size is lacking. However the video library is expansive not to hinder visiting. There are minor glitches when browsing.
PeekVid
- (**) The website is appropriate to the Wii. Video library is expansive. The problem comes when you click on a video where it becomes like a shot in the dark; you don't know whether you'll watch it or not. At times, a pop-up will load instead of the video. Other times, there's no page to load and all you see is blank. If you're lucky, you get to see the video and its stretched. The quality is great but the hassle of not knowing if you'd watch a video is frustrating.
MUSIC
Finetune Wii
- (***) An online music station where you can listen to music playlists. The interface is solely made for the wii. However, at times, the player hangs and doesn't play any music but the Wii is still operating.
GAMES
WiiCade
- (****) Online games website using flash and a great library of wii-friendly flash games. The website is specially intended for the Wii as we all know.
MISC
Albino Blacksheep
- (***1/2) A collection of Flash Animation, Flash Games and Wii-Flash Games. Wii Flash Games are similar to that with WiiCade. Flash Animations are expansive. The website's design is not fully compatible and ok to maneuver.
Wii Tab Browser
- (?) A wii tab browser only suitable for the Wii. There are problems concerning the application. One, the app sometimes freezes. Two, it kills itself at times. Third, it hangs the browser and hangs the Wii.
(The survey needs some fine tuning and is open to suggestions if the ratings doesn't seem right.)
