Sorry if old, but we finally have details on the Orignal Content channel, WiiWare (not final name).

The Good:

Ninty's will look for sutff from the Big name devs. all the way to the small inde's.

All nintendo will do with content on the channel is check that it works, otherwise they will have no input on what goes on the channel.

The Bad:

It's not comming until next year.

priceing will be based on a game-by-game basis.

from what i can gather from the article, the channel is for downloading/playing small games developed out side of nintendo specifically for the Wii, kinda like the xbox 360 arcade.

That would be awesome! Nintendo would just have to make Wii able to connect to an external hardrive to fit it

Another reason for a connectable harddrive that expands the amount of active channels.

Well let's hope they can make some great games. I am really looking forward to this channel but I hope that its not going to be a good game every few weeks and a bunch of not so great games just for fillers.

The next year release is probably attributed to the lack of storage that the Wii is currently facing. This lengthy release time is giving Nintendo more time to explore its options.

Interestng. Though it strikes me as odd that they'd introduce this in a new channel, rather than just expanding the functionality of the existing shop channel.
