Console Nickname

You can give your Wii console a Console Nickname to distinguish your Wii console

from others when you are connecting with other Wii consoles. To change the current

nickname, select the text area, then use the Wii keyboard (see page 70) for entering

the new Console Nickname. Confirm your change once it's complete.

Calendar

You can change your Wii console's Calendar settings by selecting the Date or Time

options.

the year, month, or day, then pressing A

Screen

You can change your Wii screen output settings by selecting the Screen Position,

Widescreen Settings, TV Resolution, and Screen Burn-in options.

NOTES:

• If set to 4:3, set the television screen size to ”standard” or “normal”, to display video

without altering the vertical and horizontal ratios. This term may be different

depending on the manufacturer of your television.

• In addition to using Wii's widescreen setting, you must also adjust your television's

options to take advantage of its own widescreen mode(s).

• Some television sets will not change to widescreen display even when receiving

widescreen input from the Wii console.

Standard (4:3)

Select when you're using a television that supports only standard

4:3 screen aspect ratio.

Widescreen (16:9)

Select when you're using a widescreen television or a television

that supports a 16:9 widescreen aspect ratio.
