With an Interview with Reggie Fils-Aime, Reggie announced that the WiiWare service will be available in the US on May 12, 2008. He also confirmed that Wii Fit will be launching on May 19th here in the US with the price that will be “less than $100″.
Today we were greeted in the morning with that wonderful blue light. What was the blue light for? Well the Check Mii Out Channel was updated.
You can now find all the Miis you’ve posted in the Posting Plaza, view
l Miis posted by that Artisan in their profile, return to judge a contest that was canceled, and use parental controls. You can now view 500 of the most popular Miis when using the Posting Plaza’s “Popular” category. And there is probably a few other goodies.
To download the new update for the channel, you must go to the Wii Ware section in the Shop Channel, a click on “Check Mii Out”.
I noticed this when I first downloaded the Forecast Channel, one very bizarre aspect of the Wii’s Forecast Channel is the Icons used to display a general description of the weather. Looking at places like the United States, you see some dull icons, you know the standard graphical cloud maybe with rain or snow on it, but if you get the information for cities in Japan, you get “fun” icons, like umbrellas, cartoon clouds, the Japanese style sun, and even a a cute little snowman. My question is, “why can’t we have the cute little snowman?”
I was trying to find the weather for were my sister lives, dsfdfgdfgsdf, I was surprised to find only one location in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan was shown in the Wii’s Forcast Channel, population of more than 300,000. Easter Island, with a population of only less than 4,000, weather is shown. Upper Peninsula of Michigan has a population of more than 300,000. Now in areas of high population, like New York, you see clusters of information, you see the weather for areas just a few miles from each other. Someone who lives in these areas doesn’t need that much accuracy, don’t you think it would be a little more helpful to put Doesn’t that seem a little unhelpful, wouldn’t it make more sense to put a weather report in an area located 100s of miles from another report than to put in next to one thats 2 miles closer than another.
Another weird thing about the Forecast Channel involves it’s rotation of the 3D globe, well not weird, will just unnecessary. The rotation of the globe doesn’t allow you to pass through the south poll, tho it’s not a big deal, almost not worth mentioning but it would be slightly more fun spinning the globe with no restrictions.
Our system has the capability for online voice chat, what it comes down to is finalizing the peripheral… I would not be surprised to see that capability come to this system.
It is possible, Could we see a VOIP Channel? You know to call your friends up and ask them for a game? One can only dream.
To the surprise of Japanese Wii owners, Nintendo has release a new channel which translates to Everybody’s Nintendo Channel. The new channel offers things that many Nintendo fans have been asking for. First of all the channel offers footage of upcoming and released games.
The new channel also offers the ability to transfer a free downloaded Nintendo DS demos, and other forms of news and what have you. No word on when this channel will be offered in the United States and Europe, it is most likely that the channel will come without any notice before its release.
Below is a video I found on YouTube that shows off this new Channel.
