Nintendo Channel to Launch With WiiWare

By lutherjw. Thursday, 24. April 2008, 00:24:31

, , , , ,

Remember the Everybody's Nintendo Channel that launched in Japan last November? You know, the one that offered downloadable demos of DS games via the Wii? It's coming to America. Soon. How soon? Next month soon.

According to Chris Kohler over at Wired, the channel is set to launch in America alongside WiiWare on May 12, simply titled "Nintendo Channel." An interesting addition is that you are now able to review any WiiWare games that you have played for more than an hour, and read reviews from other Wii owners via the channel. We at N+ are certainly looking forward to it!

Unfortunately, nothing has been announced for European Wii owners yet...

In Japan, the first were Dr. Mario, Pokémon Ranch, and Final Fantasy. It's likely those will be the same in the west.

Along with Defend Your Castle, Lost Winds, Gyrostarr, and World of Goo.

well, it depends on the creator of the game. Meaning, it's really up to him/her how much their game is going to cost. But I have a feeling, games may start from 10 wii points and go up to 20 wii points.
