wouldnt you need to be near the console to get the ejected disc anyway?
LoL, good question.
But aswering the topic question.
It's not possible.
Why do you want to eject the disc far from the console?

I THINK there's a homebrew app out where you can eject the disc by hitting A...

Or something.

At least that's what I thought it was.

yup.. u are right.

So instead of standing uo to eject a wii disk and collect then put in a new one, you could reboot the wii, launch homebrew channel, load a homebrew, then in the 2 seconds it takes to eject you marvel at how useful this homebrew is, walk to the wii, take out the disc, put in a new one and then reboot the wii again?

My slave (little brother) ejects the disks for me anyway, so i cant see any use for an app like this

unless your servant has no hands/feet and uses teeth to pickup cd

one use would be.. you're done using the wii... press eject, then rather than taking the disc out imediately you switch to a different input and start watching tv..... an hour and a half later when you're ready to finally leave that overly compressed couch cushion you get off your arse and put the disc away, then go to the bathroom to take that long awaited dump which surely is greasy because you're obviously a mess..... then you go to sleep, with a poorly wiped rear only to wake up the next day and do the same thing.

quite an overrated feature imo. but whatever floats peoples boats i suppose

After straining hard, I finally thought of a use for this feature.
After playing a game for a long-ass time, the disc starts to heat up, and ejecting it would cause it to be able to cool-down faster so you can resume play sooner.

there is a "dvd eject channel" for the wii, so you can eject your game by clicking on the channel.
use the serach function to find the channel...

Ummm...stupid topic .. kind of.

Anyways, if you could eject the disc through the Wiimote wirelessly, it's not like there is some robot which will open the game case you want to play, take out the disc and place it correctly in the Wii.

Point: You have to get up anyway ... unless you want to get both your Wii and discs dirty (dust and scratches).

Grow the hell up.

What the fuck does that have ANYTHING to do with the topic? We're not talking about uses, we're talking about if there was an application to eject it. Which there is.

So why aren't people just ending it?

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze

    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
