=== Wii Remote Calibration === | |||
During sword strikes or other rapid successive movements, the Wii Remote may lose calibration. This can happen even on console, and to help alleviate this the game has a built in automatic calibration whenever it sees the sensor bar, as well as a built in manual calibration feature: press Down on the Wii Remote's Dpad while pointing at the sensor bar will calibrate it anywhere instantly (preferably in a menu, but calling Fi will fix it as well). Use these features any time the motion controls become desynced. | |||
Unfortunately Emulated Bluetooth exhibits this behavior worse than console, making it desync more regularly. [[Bluetooth Passthrough]] however behaves the same as console, and is recommended if you are having trouble with this issue. | |||

=== Depth of Field Removal Hack === | |||
The depth of field effect used in the game can look considerably off on higher resolutions. To remove it, use this Gecko code (works with the NTSC-U version(s?) of the game): | |||
