I guess it is a nice move from Nintendo but I think we'll need more space to store such content!!

first of all, it's never comming to the states

second, I just can't see the service being very good. Knowing nintendo, it will be hard to download, you will have to clear memory every time to watch stuff, and will be terribly low res.

Ups! I thought it WAS coming to the States, sorry about that. And I agree with you, it would definitely suck.

"The best news is, the service is actually going to come outside of Japan. According to the Reuters report, this service will launch early next year in Japan, and also hit overseas markets sometime later in 2009."

It's not a confirmation, but to say "it's never coming" is also not a confirmation.

wouldnt think it would be really worth it unless they can have new shows or a range of newe material rather than just cartoons and anime, IMO subscribing to pay tv is cheaper in the long run.
