Nintendo’s “Wii no Ma” service in Japan got a whole lot more interesting over the weekend, with the previously ad-only channel expanding to include user-paid movies, TV shows and anime.
Starting May 1 in Japan, the Nintendo Wii is getting a new video service channel called “Wii no Ma” (Wii Room). Nintendo president Satoru Iwata introduces it in a new video.
The latest Wii Channel “Wii no Ma” is scheduled to go live in Japan on May 1. It brings video service to the Nintendo Wii — and what appears to be market research on users.
