The Wii Browser (powered by Opera Software)

, , , ...

So Nintendo released the Wii and so far it has been a great success! I had the privilege to try out the Wii when I went to Opera HQ last week. I played some games and used the Wii browser (powered by Opera Software). If I was honest, it took some getting used to! I'm not used to so much motion when playing a video game and I was quite concious of what an idiot I looked! It was obvious though that the people at the Opera offices had got used to the commotion as they didn't seem to even notice.

Once I had worn myself out, I moved on to the browser. Now this I liked! It would be a lot easier if there was some kind of keyboard hardware as opposed to the on-screen keyboard though. I have never been a fan of on-screen keyboards on devices, however on gaming machines such as the DS Lite, there isn't much choice and you do eventually get used to using them.

The Browser itself is surprisingly advanced. There isn't a great deal that's different from using a normal browser. It has an impressive zoom in, zoom out feature which I had a lot of fun with. The Wii browser also supports flash, Ajax and CSS.

You can currently use the free beta until the end of June 2007, the final version should be available at the end of March 2007. After June 2007, the price will be 500 Wii Points (about $5).
