Wii no ma Channel.

Basically - its some sort of a service where you can download videos or something and transfer it to a DSi if you want to take it on the go. Also there seems to be like a family living room type thing happening.

I don't know what type of video's. Its some service nintendo will be offering in japan. I found some info'z: http://kotaku.com/5223976/wii-video-service-channel-launches-may-1 Instead of offering existing movies and television programming, as seen in Sony's video on demand service and Microsoft's Xbox Live Video Marketplace, Nintendo plans to offer cartoons and "mainly family-oriented programming" options created especially for the Wii video service. Nintendo is partnering with Japanese ad agency Dentsu for the endeavor, offering some videos for a fee, others supported by advertising. Wii no Ma lets users enter up to 8 Miis and asks them to enter their year of birth as well as their blood type. Everything is centered around a living room, which the Miis occupy in real time. There's a calendar which provides pictures to look at as well as seasonal info. There's a message board that can be used to contact a celebrity "concierge". For example, in the Wii no Ma promotional video, Albert Einstein makes an appearance, recommending TV shows - you know, as Einstein would. And that brings us to the video element. After watching the program, you and your Mii family can rate whether you enjoyed the program on a "Yes", "So-So" and "No" type scale. It's also possible to let your friends know what you're watching via messages and download shows to your DSi. In Wii no Ma, the living room's planet doubles as information about the partner companies advertising in Wii no Ma. It's possible to find out about their products and even order real samples to be delivered to your house. There are coupons than can be downloaded to your DSi as well. --- sounds neat

This was a rumour, and now I guess it's confirmed.

I can't wait for it, sounds awesome.

If no one can understand japanese or just couldn't figure it out, you can order from different stores on your wii and they'll come deliver the food to your house (this is why its a japanese channel only, japan is organized enough to do this). Also another thing is how you can put coupons onto your dsi now for certain things for when you go buy at stores.
