Brilliant, if sometimes illegible before I got the RGB cable, and I think the bottom Bar's to big, but I love the predictive text and flash and it's the best telly internet I've ever seen. It's a tad slower than my similarly-specced PC (old I know), and it really should be faster.

More plugins (quicktime would be nice, or some custom multi-codec player) would absolutely seal the deal. I suppose it'll be enhanced a great deal once more sites are wii specific or include wii-specific areas.

They don't plan to charge for the browser do they? Nintendo shouldn't try to nickel and dime people to death. $6 to $10 per virtual console game is outrageous, and a webbrowser and streaming movie/music/picture player should all be included for free.

They will release the browser in March and it will be free until June.

No body will pay for a browser, they will pretty much kill it's online usage at all. But then again they weren't going to be any competition for 360 anyway.

I'd pay $5 for a browser, even if I have no intention of ever really using it... $5 is nothing. Want $5? I'll send you $5 via paypal right now. Cmon what's your address. First person to tell me their paypal address gets $5. Better yet. First 5 people tell me their address get $5. Scam me and tell me 5 paypal accounts you use.

Congratulations to popinadam who just won $5 to buy himself a wii browser. No other takers?

(I guess that's good, since apparently I've only got $23 of available credit left...)

If they sell snes games for $6, they are going to expect to get a hell of a lot more than $5 for opera.

popinadam · January 07, 2007, 03:40:58 PM

Thanks Altor, free money is good money! But i'll be donating it to one of the developers once I figure out who's worthy enough of your hard earned cash.

Although I do like how paypal decided to take their portion of and once it got converted from CAD to USD it came out to be $3.45 HAHA!

G4 said that nintendo had said the browser would remain free.

Altor · January 12, 2007, 06:04:20 PM

G4, the worthless uninformed game "news" channel that is so desperate for viewers they covered the "Adult Entertainment (Porn) Expo" and have contests to see which video game character's boobs are gigglyest? That station is so casual, it's louging on a couch half asleep with its belt undone and popcorn laying all over the place.

sWampy · January 12, 2007, 06:09:44 PM

Well Adult entertainment expo is a lot better than the E3 as become a big suck to allow gates to have his 30 minutes of fame every year telling everyone how you can bow down and suck his nuts now that all your data belongs to him.
