Re: [Audyssey] WII Bowling
Hi Ben, My neighbors tell me which pins are left and I set up for the spare. Like if I just roll my ball totally straight it will hit the 6 pin. If it is more like a 4 or 7 pin left I move all the way over to the left and count clicks to the right and throw my ball straight. Just with practice and knowing where which pins are, when they tell me which pins are left I can count clicks and throw my ball straight at the pin or pins. Of course not so much with splits or other tricky spares.

Re: [Audyssey] WII Bowling
Hi Charles, In WII Sports resorts a right hand bowler starts straight in front of the 6 pin. I do a couple of clicks to the left and throw a hook ball for my strike ball. So I just throw straight at the 6 pin. I move 3 clicks to the right for a 6 and 10 or just the 10 and throw straight. For a 7 I move all of the way to the left and move 4 clicks to the right and throw straight. 7 clicks from the left for a 4. 10 clicks from the left for a 4 5 or 5 10 split. Some times I get them and some times I don't. It is hard to throw perfectly straight. But I would guess that there might be about 25 clicks from right to left or left to right. Hope that was the kind of answer that you were asking for.

Hi Lee, The WII bowling is just one game on the Nintendo WII game system. I need sighted help to play the game. They need to start the game and then tell me which pins are left so that I can try to pick up my spare. I just like the game so much because the game sensor detects the motion of the controller. So your arm swing speed, the crank of your wrist and the release of the ball make it very much like real bowling. Sorry that it is not a game that one can just down load.

Re: [Audyssey] WII Bowling
Hi Lukáš, The WII bowling that I am talking about is one of the games on the WII game system. You know the WII is a game system like the X Box etc. I am playing WII bowling in our community room with just a bit of help from my neighbors and friends. However Ken posted the below message. - Original Message - I was playing Guitar Hero 3 on my HTC Ozone the other day when I decided to see if I could find some walkthroughs, cheats, anything like that. Well, I didn't, but I found a company called VI fit. Their first production, blind hero, was a success, though you had to wear special gloves with mini rumble pads in the fingers, so you'd know which buttons to press and when. Now, they have out three free, that's right free, games for the PC. They are expansions of the Wii sports games of Tennis, Bowling, and Boxing. All you need is one or two Wiimotes, a Bluetooth dongle or built-in Bluetooth support, and a PC, and you're off and running. I don't have the afore mentioned Bluetooth so I haven't tried the games yet, but they look promising and are even open-source, so you can expand on or learn from the games, how they are coded and so on.

Re: [Audyssey] WII Bowling
Hi David, One day I will try to record a game of WII Bowling. The thing is, it has to be a day when I am not running the AC and when I can get someone that will let me record them. I can not start the game etc by myself. I need sighted help for that. I also can not play the game as well without sighted help. I do ok with throwing my first ball trying for a strike. But then I need someone to tell me which pins are left so that I can try to pick up the spare. I also need someone to tell me what my score is and which frame we are in. So it is a very fun game to play with a bit of sighted help. You still need to swing your arm, crank your wrist and release the ball in a consistent manor. Well I do often not crank my wrist so as to throw the ball straight at a pin for a spare. It also helps that I remember the location of the pins so that they can just give me the number of the pin that is left standing. Just in case you do not know the set up of the pins, here they are. 7 8 9 0 4 5 6 2 3 1 I used 0 for ten just to keep the spacing. For the strike ball a right hander wants to hit the 1 and three pin equally. A left hander the 1 and 2 pin. The 7 is the far left back pin. the 10 the far back right pin on the lane. The 1 and 5 pin behind the 1 pin are in the center of the lane.

Re: [Audyssey] WII Bowling
The pins are set in an equilateral triangle with the 7, 8, 9, and 10 pins spread out at the back end of the pin deck. All rows are numbered from left to right. Each row is centered across the lane. In front of the back row are the 4, 5, and 6 pins. In front of those, the 2 and 3 pins, and in front of those is the 1, or head, pin. The triangle is 3 feet from front to back and from left to right in the back row. The pins are 12 inches from one another equally. --- Shepherds are the best beasts! - Original Message - From: Jim Kitchen j...@kitchensinc.net To: David Chung Gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Friday, August 06, 2010 9:30 AM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] WII Bowling Hi David, One day I will try to record a game of WII Bowling. The thing is, it has to be a day when I am not running the AC and when I can get someone that will let me record them. I can not start the game etc by myself. I need sighted help for that. I also can not play the game as well without sighted help. I do ok with throwing my first ball trying for a strike. But then I need someone to tell me which pins are left so that I can try to pick up the spare. I also need someone to tell me what my score is and which frame we are in. So it is a very fun game to play with a bit of sighted help. You still need to swing your arm, crank your wrist and release the ball in a consistent manor. Well I do often not crank my wrist so as to throw the ball straight at a pin for a spare. It also helps that I remember the location of the pins so that they can just give me the number of the pin that is left standing. Just in case you do not know the set up of the pins, here they are. 7 8 9 0 4 5 6 2 3 1 I used 0 for ten just to keep the spacing. For the strike ball a right hander wants to hit the 1 and three pin equally. A left hander the 1 and 2 pin. The 7 is the far left back pin. the 10 the far back right pin on the lane. The 1 and 5 pin behind the 1 pin are in the center of the lane.

Re: [Audyssey] WII Bowling
Hi Kevin, It is loud with other people etc when I play down in our community room, but when I get someone to help me play in my apartment I will try to record some game play. However for me in the WII Bowling it is not really much about the sounds of the game. Sometimes you can tell if it sounds like a good possible strike or not, but that is about it. The thing that is fun about it for me is that it is pretty close to real bowling with the movement and speed of your arm, the crank of your wrist and when you release the ball that depends on how your ball acts and where it goes.

Hi Dakotah, Thank you. I have heard that those games are very fun. I will check them out when I can have someone to help me get to them etc. My Aid says that her kids yell at her all the time when she plays sword play and boxing. She keeps moving in on them or the TV screen. She must be really into it. Hasn't hit them yet, but gets close. grin BFN - Original Message - If you have the opertunity, try swordplay. That is a game you can play as either one or two players. I know I've already mentioned it, but it really is fairly easy to master. My highest mii on swordplay is up to about 1410 or so in scoring. To give some perspective, I have a sighted friend, trained in swordplay, with scores around 1500. It's great exercise, too. Table tennis is pretty easy too. You'll mess up sometimes, but it's really quite a fun game anyway. Realistically, the only games we'll have trouble with are the air sports games and maybe power cruising and archery.

Re: [Audyssey] WII Bowling
Hi Charles, I always start my first ball where the game starts me, so don't need help there. But then if they don't tell me, I ask which pins I have left. Apparently the numbers of the pins left are shown on the screen. I also like to chat it up. You know like ask what pins they have left, how they or I missed or made the spare etc. Last night definitely would not have made a good podcast though. We do chat, flirt etc while playing. And there was a tenant there last night that rambled on and on the entire time that she was there. Very distracting. Joe was telling her to shut up, cursing at her etc. That never stops her though. But hey she is the only tenant that has lived here since the building opened in 1982. I will definitely do a recording the next time I can get someone to play and help me in my apartment.

Hi Brice, In WII Sports Resorts a right handed bowler starts over to the right side of the lane. I just throw a nice hook ball from there. I think that I had seven strikes in one game. But I do not want to just guess at the spares. So I only play with sighted help. May I ask what kind of scores you get and what is your average? I have now bowled 21 games against 1, 2 or 3 other bowlers. I have won 17 of those games. My average is now 161.95. With 3401 total points in the 21 games.

I have won 17 of those games. My average is now 161.95. With 3401 total points in the 21 games. I only have sighted help for an hour a day and I have other things that I need her to do, so I have not even had a chance to check out any other games other than the bowling. But, hey, there is Tuesday night bowling in our community room.

Re: [Audyssey] WII Bowling
Hi Shaun, I'm afraid that our Tuesday night bowling would not make for a good podcast. It is in our community room. There has been from 3 to 6 bowlers. But since it is the building's community room, there is another crowd there chatting away etc. It is just a community type thing, not a demonstration of WII Sports by the blind. I also know that I would not be able to talk my home health care Aid into being recorded helping me play in my apartment. Now if some day my Niece Keihen comes and plays, I might be able to talk her into it. She likes and is very good at public speaking. BFN Jim I can not tell a lie. I did it.

Re: [Audyssey] WII Bowling
The game channel is actually pretty easy to find with the plus minus method. Wii sports is easy to recognize as it has a sort of piano theme with ocean waves in the background. Then, all you have to do is press the start game button, which makes a ding of a g above middle c, sort of like the old windows ding. Once you're in the game itself, just hit a and b together, then you can use the d pad for most functions. The only function that seems to be inaccessible via d pad is the change me button from within a game, so if you want to change miis, you have to quit and restart, but that's really not such a hastle. Some other wii games aren't so accessible. Wii play, for example, is pretty much totally inaccessible, but both sports games have given me quite a bit of entertainment.\\Signed: Dakotah Rickard On 7/25/10, Jim Kitchen j...@kitchensinc.net wrote: Hi Thomas, May I ask, how do you pick up the spares inWII Bowling without sighted help? - Original Message - Hi Jim, There is that.

Re: [Audyssey] WII Bowling
The beginning part is not stupid at all. It is definitely possible. I think you are getting comments from some1 who doesn't have wii and doesn't know but trying to act as if he knows everything. When your controller is pointing at something, you will hear a click and feel the vibration. At the beginning, you can click on any 1 that your controller is point at, then use the plus or minus button to move you to the game. You can tell is the right place by the short music clip. Next, there are 4 icons. You want to click on the bottom right icon which is load game. This part takes some getting used to. It's ok if you click on the wrong 1. If you click on the bottom left which is the back, you will go back to the starting point when you turn on the game. 锦发/Steady Goh 吴聊 http://www.dropbox.com/gallery/2106729/1/Steady%27s%20interview?h=bc0b40 - Original Message - From: Brice Mellen To: 'Gamers Discussion list' Sent: Saturday, July 24, 2010 5:08 AM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] WII Bowling Lol you wouldn't be able to even load the game up, not on the wii, because of the stupid beginning part you have to actually point the controller at the game on the screen, as for actually after you load up the game, I guarantee you could play bowling or whatever by your self. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] WII Bowling
Hi Charles, Alicia was not there last night, so it took me a few tries. I tried to drop the ball on my head etc. That did not work. But when I swung my arm and brought it up to sort of my left shoulder and released the ball, it dropped on my foot, I screamed and the ball rolled towards the people behind me.

Re: [Audyssey] WII Bowling
Hi Ken, Thank you for instructions on starting the WII bowling. I am keeping them just in case I ever buy a WII system. But for now I do not own one. I just go down to our community room to join in on some fun. There was a dozen people there last week, all sighted, except for me of course, so I just let them get the game going. May I ask, I thought that when you first start with WII bowling you have to design your person. You know, male, female, hair, clothing etc. BFN Jim Don't use commas, which, aren't necessary. j...@kitchensinc.net http://www.kitchensinc.net (440) 286-6920 Chardon Ohio USA --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] WII Bowling
There isn't a way to fowl--it's a very generic bowling. The baseball-s generic too, only three innings, nothing spectacular. Biggs 2k9 is the answer to that problem--it's a bit inaccessible, especially the fielding, but it's still fun. Sometimes, when I get frustrated at my lack of fielding ability, I start pitching wicked fast balls at the pitchers. It gives them a base and me a big laugh.

Re: [Audyssey] WII Bowling
You don't need help starting the game. All you do is point the sensor till you feel the Wiimote vibrate. Get as close to the top left as you can. When you click a, you'll hear the sports music. Then go down about two inches and right a bit more than two--you'll feel the vibration again. You'll hear a ding when you press a. That starts up the CD. You press a when your Wiimote vibrates again, and use the arrow keys to go up and down the games menu. They do wrap around, but if you land on the wrong one, you can hit plus, go down twice, hit a, and you're back to the games menu. Select the right game knowing that the game you were just on is still selected. The order is tennis, bowling, baseball, golf and boxing. To the right are some training exercises that are interesting, and the list is identical but reversed for some weird reason. If, when you clicked a to select the game channel, you heard music other than the one that goes with the cd, hit plus and/or minus till you hear the right music, then point to start and hit a. It's kind of a pain to learn but not impossible to master--just think of it as a little extra bonus game-- the find the games game.

Re: [Audyssey] WII Bowling
You can throw the ball backward and scare the heck out of the audience, and you can throw the ball into the next lane and hear them laugh at you. That's just in Wii sports bowling, but there are entire Wii DVD's devoted to bowling, baseball and so on. Biggs 2009 baseball is well-narrated. Only problem is there is no auto-fielding so you're gonna get slaughtered by the computer. Still fun though.

Re: [Audyssey] WII Bowling
Hi Charles, Yes, needing sighted help is why I have not bought a WII, XBox etc etc. I had planned to just go down and listen to them play, but decided to ask and see if I could do it with their help. It helped that in the corner of the screen it told the number of each pin that was left standing. The crowd cheers, or, oos, so you can tell if you got a strike, picked up the spare or missed it. And I heard a tiny bit of commentary such as nice you picked up the spare, but that was about all I heard. Several people there though so I may have missed some of what the game was saying.
