Start deleting games to make room on your Wii's memory, because starting today you can download Hulu Plus for the system.

It's the paid version of Hulu, so it will put you back $7.99 a month if you're not already a subscriber, but it gives you access to a number of current television shows as well as movies. A lot of Wii owners use their Wii consoles exclusively for the multimedia offerings for Netflix, so adding Hulu seems like an obvious addition to the system.

I care! I've been wondering when it was coming to the Wii. And didn't Nintendo say it would come to the 3DS?

Hmmm... But does Hulu Plus have movies and TV shows that Netflix doesn't? I think I'll just stick with Netflix for now.

Weird...I can't believe I actually use my Wii for playing games instead of streaming TV, unlike so many other people. I wonder if people even know you can play games other than Skyward Sword, SSBB, Super Mario Galaxy, and Metroid: Other M on the Wii?

On the bright side, you'll get to watch every Arrested Development episode.

I haven't yet downloaded it since I'm away from home, but if it's as clean as Netflix's app on the Wii, then this is exciting. Hulu Plus on the other consoles are starting to get on my nerves.

I wish it is international. I want to try out the 2-week free trial. Oh well. I'm just going to have to wait until the summer because i'm going back to the U.S in the summer.
