New Wii channel launches in Japan

Everybody's Nintendo Channel offers videos, game info and DS demo downloads.

Nintendo Japan has launched the Everybody's Nintendo Channel for Wii, giving Japanese Wii owners a bunch of new textual and video content, plus Nintendo DS demos.

Current content on the channel includes a video interview with Shigeru Miyamoto about Wii Fit, info on upcoming Wii and Nintendo DS releases and a bunch of game demos for the Nintendo DS.

The demo downloads use the Wii as a host, which then wirelessly sends the demo to a DS. It works in a very similar way to DS to DS game sharing.

It's certainly a worthy addition to the growing Wii channel selection and one we're eager to see released in the UK. So far there's no word from Nintendo as to when this will be though.

To see the new channel in action head over to Wired's Game Life blog.

I expect dozens of threads repeating this news to appear.
