I actually go there every week after checking whats new in the wii shop. Even though video quality is bad I'm happy they put out videos constantly for most of wii and ds games.

I also check what new DS demos there are, but i'm usually dissapointed.

Basically i think it's a pretty good channel and wondering if there are others that use it :P.

Since I've had a wireless router, I've started to make use of the Nintendo Channel quite frequently. As far as the videos go, I like being able to take a look at a game from the TV set; despite the quality, it's easier for me to watch it there than on this computer I'm using. :P I've also been taking more extensive looks at the selection of games available for different platforms to see if there's something that I may have overlooked that interests me, especially on something like WiiWare.

Lately, I have to say that the Nintendo Channel has started to become a little fun, actually. :P

I've been there occasionally, but nothing much in excess. It can be nice to check out some stuff on there though, often times if I'm excited for a game to be released. It's nice to look at some of the statistics on there as well.

Every time I read that there was an update I go on to see whats new. Lately nothing impressive. I sold my DS because it was a peice of garbage like every DS is so I don't use the download service. I wonder if anyone uses it to actually buy games :?

I go there on and off. I usually forget about it until after I turn the system off so I don't go as often as I would like. I think the videos are enjoyable to watch and I've found a few games that I otherwise may not have bought because of it.

I love the DS Download service and would love to see them offer more downloads. I never take my DS with my when I'm out and about and therefore never have it with me when I see downloads in stores, so can't take advantage of them. I'd love to try Starfy out, but the download is only available in store and I keep forgetting my system (not to mention I'd feel a little silly standing in the middle of the DS section downloading games while all the little kiddies were pulling their parents in to show them what they want :) )

I think it is a great channel and would love to see Nintendo use it more. Afterall, this is the only console left where you can't actually try a game before you buy it, so I would love to see more DS demos and some Wii demos as well!

It's alright. There could be improvements though like video quality and the way it streams the video. Like for example when you rewind it has to buffer again instead of like how Youtube does it where once it loads you can freely skip to any loaded part of the video. But since the videos aren't that long anyways it's not something that's very high priority.

I actually check it every week to see what new videos are up. Every time I go, I usually find at least one video that's interesting. I also like that you can DS Download some games, and be able to try them out.

All in all, it's probably my favorite channel. (After the Disc Channel, of course!):P

I use it when I need feedback on games I want to buy. And sometimes there are good videos that I don't have seen elsewhere.

it's not really giving you REAL information about the games. it's just pure advertising. i like gamespot better.

but i liked the e3 videos.

Barely check it.. last time was after E3, because I wanted to see the Other M trailer again and wanted high quality, which it wasn't :(. GiantBomb had the best quality video.

That's exactly what I do too. I am really glad they keep up on the video output, also. I just hope that I'll be looking at Wii demos fairly soon.

every now and then, when i'm not playing guitar hero (wonder why i cant use the guitar's analog on the channels >_>). better than most of the youtube crap, and they actually have news there... and if you're lucky you might even find a nice demo for the DS

I go there every once in a while, mostly to download from the Wii's DS Download kiosk. I also recommend games and rate them.

I actually use it alot. It's quite helpful.

The only thing I'd like to see is NoA hire a small team of journalists to make video previews and reviews of games. I wish it was more like nintendo's version of gametrailers.com

just on launch, never again... I should try some DS demo, but for the rest I do not see the point. online tru a pc is faster and you can get any clip you`ll like, even on better quality... That said, any demo of the new mario and Luigi there? Thx

Not at all. I'll just delete it soon. I find no reason to check it, when I can find better things on the internet. I think it is more casual oriented.

I usually go there at least two to three times a week. I find it to be a pretty cool channel.
