U.S. to get Everybody’s Nintendo Channel around WiiWare launch

Published by Pete at 6:54 pm under WiiWare, Nintendo DS, Wii

Finally, the promised DS game demos from the Wii will be a reality! Nintendo of America will be debuting the channel under a slightly different name from the Japanese version, simply ‘Nintendo Channel’, and the service begins next month. Users will be able to browse videos of current and upcoming games, download DS demos (as mentioned before), and even post user reviews of WiiWare games that they have put more than an hour of playtime into. Should be a nice feature for prospective buyers to sort through some of the mess. It wasn’t said as to whether this will be available for download the same day as WiiWare’s launch, but the two channels will be integrated somewhat.

    Nice! I love the idea of trying out games right from home. It would make a lot of sense to do this with Wii games as well.. Oops! No hard drive! :(
