Nintendo finally does what it should have done in the first place

The Wii internet channel is now free. If you paid for it, like I did, just to test it out, you now get reimbursed in the form of a NEW NES GAME! Aren't you excited? I know I am. Maybe I'll get Super Mario Bros or something.

I never paid for it, I got it when it was still free...So I lose--Wait...I never lost...

Free is a price I find hard to overlook so I have played around with this a bit over the last few days. Its actually more usable than I expected - the on screen keyboard works pretty well although it has hung on me a couple of times. I would like if there were more zooming options (perhaps there are but I haven't found them). I haven't gotten it to work with any flash stuff yet either although it is supposed to support some form of flash.

It worked on youtube the last time I checked, and that uses flash, but I'm unsure if it has the latest version or not.

I have been watching YouTube videos on Wii Internet Channel for 2 years, sometimes I think I use YouTube on Wii Internet more than I play Wii games.
