Nintendo Channel

This game is defunct.
Do note the game no longer works at all without modifications. This is most likely due to the game's servers being shut down (as of June 28, 2013). As a result, further official developments with the game are unlikely to happen.

To do:
Wii + Internet Video shows an early Home Menu banner.

The Nintendo Channel was Nintendo's video streaming service for previews of new games and such for nearly six years. It also let you send game demos to a DS and rate games you've already played (which led to a discounted selection of games based on the ratings in Japan).

This channel was discontinued on June 28, 2013. However, it is possible to restore functionality by installing WiiLink.
