Anyone else get the feeling it's all about the controller and not actual games with this thing?

They couldn't just name it NintendoTV? Guess I shouldn't surprised about them attaching the -ii.

I like Frii things. :D

That's interesting. I'm sure it will be a selling point for lots of people.

This sounds awesome. It's everything Microsoft announced with smartglass but so much better.

Did Nintendo mention anything about an achievement/trophy system? Thats a big seller for me. I couldn't possibly be less interested in a video service.

This. Is. Awesome!!! Go Nintendo! :D

Depending on what exactly this service offers, it could be a selling point for me on the Wii U, since I don't have a TV cable service atm.

That kind of cool

its early. they have to show developers the systems capabilities so future titles can be developed.

You know, i already have something to watch TV on, It's called a TV.

Just when you thought product names couldn't get any stupider.

I really wish Nintendo diden't stick "ii" on everything.
by Solo Thursday, September 13, 2012 at 01:45 PM

It's like the Wii U does everything!
by VampireChocobo Thursday, September 13, 2012 at 02:33 PM

I only wonder the quality of their TV content
by Tim Gruver Thursday, September 13, 2012 at 05:56 PM

I already watch a ton of Netflix on the Wii, so this'll be what the doctor ordered!
by Kyon Thursday, September 13, 2012 at 06:06 PM

I kept reading it as TV-I-I, instead of T-Vwii.

My favorite part is seeing the live action field of the football game and checking the scores all at the same time.
by Max Thursday, September 13, 2012 at 07:58 PM

Looks interesting, but I'd rather keep it simple
