Netflix On Wii No Longer Requires Disc

by Matthew Kato on Oct 18, 2010 at 04:23 AM

If you've got a Wii, a Netflix subscription, and a broadband connection, you can now enjoy Netflix movies on your Nintendo system with a disc.

The movie service will now be offered via a Netflix channel in your Wii menu, and the channel can be downloaded via the Wii Shop channel.

And before you go, please read what Netflix CEO and co-founder, Reed Hastings, had to say on the matter: "Wii is a consummate home entertainment platform and has quickly become one of the best and most popular ways to enjoy movies streamed from Netflix. The availability of Netflix right on the Wii Menu adds significantly to the ease and convenience that attracts our members to the Netflix streaming experience and is an important step in our efforts to continuously improve the service."
