Wii Rumors | Wii Bluetooth is picture hungry

Thursday, November 23, 2006

With the release of the Nintendo Wii not even a week old in the US, rumor has it the Japanese bundle of joy is secretly scanning the air taking captive any pictures on nearby Bluetooth devices it finds...

According to Wii Reign, a poster on the Nintendo forums had this to say:

Yep, it’s true. I just went in my photo channel just to look at the opening menu (I had no pictures on the SD card, or so I thought) when I clicked on the left button. It said that there were 12 pictures available. So, I was like “what’s going on here” and viewed them. It turned out to be pictures from my brother’s phone. I was thinking “Wow, cool” but my other brother immediately turned off his bluetooth on his phone. So, in conclusion, apparently the Wii just eats up photos from any device around it that has bluetooth. I don’t know if this is known already or not, but in case it isn’t, I’m telling you now. I should note that I had to have an SD card in to receive the pictures.

Whether this turns out to be fact or fiction(you're welcome for the link Donn - You guys ROCK!), we'll be sure to let everybody know!
