Wii - Internet Channel

Another day a nother new message on my wii! Today it was to inform me that I could download a beta of the Wii internet channel (channel is the layman term they use for a program). So I poped over to the Wii store via the dashboard and downloaded a copy. This was the first time I have downloaded anything from it, and was slightly confused when they used a running Mario as a status bar, and blocks as milestones for how far it has progressed. However it was quite cool when he got to the end and started bumping the last block for all its coins (not so funny when you pay real money for a download and its more of a representation). So on starting it up I discovered its developed using Opera :) and looks quite good. This blog looks normal, and I could even post (may post a reply to this post form it later). Not sure if it's going to stop working later but its nice to keep getting little presents from Nintendo, and good that so far they have been free too!

  1. Looks cool! I'm so tempted to get a Wii now... It's very different from any other console I've used before... the fact we were playing it standing up for a start! BTW. I couldn't really see what was going on in the videos... perhaps you should have used a better format? Dk0
