Like the Internet Channel or the Nintendo Channel. If so, which ones??? I did use the Nintendo Channel to read about the new Wiiware releases when I missed Phantom_Leo's weekly download update. Now my wifi is dead, although it works every once in a while for messaging. Do you use any???

I use the Internet, Nintendo, and Check Mii Out channels quite often. In fact, I got a prize for my Don Quixote Mii.

I use them for about a week after they come out. Then I forget about them.

Yeah, I got a picture of my Don Quixote Mii on horseback saving my Mii from a windmill dragon. It's saved to my message board and in the photochannel and I can send it to people.

Cool part was that I got to place the Mii's, choose their pose, and their scale.

I only use the internet channel because I downloaded so many VC and WiiWare games that I dont have much room left...and I refuse to get an SD card. If I ever need more space I will delete the internet channel. Good thing that once you buy something with wii points you can get it back whenever you want.

I havn't hooked my Wii to the internet yet (hopefully I will soon), but when I do, I might, assuming the channel you downlaod virtual console games from counts as a "bonus channel"

Do you have an SD Card phobia or what? I only use the internet channel as well. The other channels are useless.

The only one I use regularly is the Everybody Votes Channel. Some of the questions that come up are really interesting and I enjoy the prediction system as well as the other small stats it records. Besides that I check the Nintendo Channel around once a week but it usually ends up being for about 30 seconds after finding out nothing worthwhile has been added.

Where is the poll option for all of the above? I pretty much use them all, but use the news channel the most I guess.

For most of the things I can do on a Wii channel, I'd rather do on a PC. If Nintendo came out with a Netflix channel, I'd be all over it.

I mostly use the Check Mii Out, Everybody Votes, and Internet channels. I hate the Nintendo channel and don't need the weather/news ones.

I don't use any of 'em anymore. I used to use the Nintendo Channel to see if any good DS demos were available, but there wasn't anything there that caught my interest. So I deleted it.

They do update the DS demos. Its not always the same ones available. Anyways. I use the Nintendo Channel for DS downloads, and the Wii Shop Channel.

You know a 2GB SDCard is like 20 bucks or less right? I saw one for like 8 bucks on Amazon.

The Internet Channel,as it can be somewhat amusing.The rest are pretty much useless in my eyes,and only serve to take up precious memory that could otherwise be used for games.The Nintendo Channel does have its strong points,but the small number of good points weren't enough to prevent me from deleting it.

Yeah, I know. I used to check it every week to see if there was anything new. Sense most of the time the same demos from previous weeks with no new ones. So I didn't much point in keeping it seeing as new demos didn't come out very often.

I use the Nintendo channel for DS demos, but it's dissapointing how few there are and how they re-use them week to week. We havent had any new demos in weeks.
