About the WordPress Ultimate Gamer’s Pack
The WordPress Ultimate Gamer’s Pack is an essential set of plugins that automatically renders an optimized version of your posts and pages when visitors come to your blog on a Nintendo Wii, Nintendo DS-Lite, or Sony PSP. Each device is automatically detected, there is no configuration needed. The theme used by each plugin optimizes your blogs layout and fonts for each device. For example, the Wii Edition plugin uses the “Wii” font at sizes that provide for easy reading on TV screens.
Why Are These Plugins Useful?
Less hassle scrolling, zooming and switching between display modes.
Webpages on the Wii are hard to view on default zoom and on many pages (designed wider then 800 pixels) you will have to scroll from side to side. In addition, font sizes that work on a computer screen don’t render well on a TV screen. Large web pages also gag the Wii from time to time, failing to load and/or bookmark properly. With the DS-Lite the plugin provides a fast loading and readable version while in overview mode. The PSP is delivered a version that eliminates the horizontal scrolling (and reduces the vertical scrolling) required to read your posts and pages.

[…] Apparently there’s a need out there for a WordPress plugin that will display things better for game console browsers. This plugin caught my attention for several reasons. I’m a big fan of accessability. Part of that encompasses the need for all kinds of people with all kinds of browsers to access your website. This website is a pretty poor example of that because I just used one of the default templates with my own image as a header. As a result, if I was concerned about members of my audience reading this blog on the gaming platforms they support (Wii, DS-Lite, PSP), this would be a handy plugin to resolve that issue. At the moment, I’m not seeing that many of you using those platforms if any at all (there are a handful of unknown OSes coming up). […]
[…] Na activering van de plugin detecteert WordPress automatisch of één van de drie consoles wordt gebruikt.

Bovendien meldt Harper dat WordPress ook geschikt zal worden gemaakt voor het nieuwe speeltje van Apple waar de halve wereld momenteel over schrijft. […]

[…] Silicon Valley will do its normal thing of misinvesting tens (or 100s) of millions of dollars building mobile broadband applications that won’t be profitable until 2012 or later.

[…] Nintendo and The Internet : Can’t We All Just Get Along?! The beta version of Opera for the Wii is out in full swing now. For the most part, it’s been gravy on top of an already delicious mound of Nintendo goodness. But that isn’t to say people still aren’t nitpicking away at it — where’s the tab browsing? where’s the widget support? where’s the love?!!? According to Wired’s Chris Kohler, the only thing stopping Opera from being a more robust browser on the Wii is Nintendo themselves. Quelle dommage. Well while the big boys at the big N get their acts together, why don’t you try using one of these WordPress Ultimate Gamer’s Pack plugins to make your sites a little more console-friendly.
