I'm not real familiar with the Wii....but for some reason it's reading the site as WML (Wireless Markup Language) just as a mobile phone would interpret it. Does the Wii have browser options you can change? Are you running The Internet Channel (Opera 9)?

In a standard HTML browser it comes up to the POTC Online site...in WML mode it comes up as Cannons of the Deep......

Wireless Markup Language - this is what most mobile phones have as a browser interface. You can install a WML add-on (I use it in Firefox 3.07 for PC) and switch back and forth from HTML to WML.

Click on my pirates on the main menu and then select transfer gold or transfer loot.

Yes I know that but it doesn't give me the login screen. And doesn't show any of my pirates.

Like it does on the cell phone..

Maybe its the WML plugin I am using which one is working for you?

Same as me do you have any checks marked in the options?

For some reason I can't get it to login me in.. Just let me play without login in. And can't figure why it don't give me the login screen.

Any ideas?

Here is a screen Shot of my pirate screen and the url but I took off the UserID. I got it to login but doesn't show my pirates.. I wonder why?? It seems to know my account from when I play on my cell phone but doesn't show my pirates.

Thanks, Will

You're on the correct screen, but for some reason missing 4 or 5 options. Try clearing out your browser cache (cookies, temp files and all) and then revisit the page. Are you running the most updated version of Firefox (3.0.7) ?
