The Everybody Votes Channel was a Wii Menu channel that allowed users to vote in simple opinion polls and compare and contrast opinions with those of friends, family and voters across the globe. The Everybody Votes Channel was available on February 13, 2007. Its release came as a surprise, as Nintendo made no announcement regarding it until after it was available for download.〔(Nintendo Players - Nintendo Unleashes 'Everybody Votes' Channel )〕 Like the four other Wii channels, Nintendo ended support for the Everybody Votes Channel on June 28, 2013.〔(News: Multiple Wii online services discontinued today ). ComputerAndVideoGames.com (2013-06-28). Retrieved on 2013-08-23.〕 ==Features== The Everybody Votes Channel features general two-choice poll questions for users to answer. Three regional questions are offered, as well as one or more global polls; after a set time period, a question closes and is replaced by another one. New regional questions are posted every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday. Global questions are due to be posted twice a month, although to launch the channel two worldwide questions were released in quick succession. When accessing the main page of the Everybody Votes Channel, users are initially greeted with the current open polls and have the opportunity to vote with a registered Mii. Users are able to register a total of six different players on each Wii console using Miis to represent individuals in the household. The Channel records all of the votes cast by a player and allows one to compare one's own opinions with those of one's family. Within hours of a poll's closing, the results of the poll are made available. Vote ratios for each question are displayed on the Channel using Miis to represent different votes. A pie chart is used with 200 Miis to show how the vote panned out. Furthermore, for regional polls, a geographic breakdown is shown of which options were most popular in different areas; for example, a UK user will be shown results for Scotland, England, Wales, Northern Ireland and the Isle of Man, and in the US, the results of all 50 states and Puerto Rico are shown. These results are displayed on a map, with hues indicating which option received the majority vote in each region. The hue is a deeper shade if the majority is more pronounced. The previous twelve polls that a user has voted on are archived so that one can check back on them after the polls have closed.〔(HEXUS.gaming - Headline :: Everybody Votes Channel on Wii : Page - 1/1 )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Everybody Votes Channel」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
