\"Netflix<\/p>\n

So the big news today seemed to be this.  Netflix and Nintendo have come up with a solution that will allow you to stream Netflix streaming movies and shows to your Wii Game console.  It will work much like the PS3 streaming and requires that you obtain a disk from Netflix (you have to be a Netflix member to do this) before your Wii game machine can handle the streaming.<\/p>\n

You can get your Wii in the line by heading to this Netflix page<\/a>.  This is to order the disk which won\u2019t be available until sometime this Spring. <\/p>\n

Why does this matter?  Well for many who already have this capability with their PS3, XBox360 or one of the multitudes of Blu-ray and streaming devices it won\u2019t.  But remember that there are a ton of folks out there with nothing more than a Wii machine connected to their TV.  So ultimately this expands Netflix\u2019s reach to more households and give Nintendo a feature to add to their sales pitch.<\/p>\n

So despite the fact that I have multiple ways to access Netflix Watch Now movies and shows already thanks to my Blu-ray player, SageTV, laptops etc etc, I still ordered one for the Wii.  Hey, it\u2019s free so why not.<\/p>\n
