BBC iPlayer relaunching as a dedicated Wii Channel
The BBC iPlayer, only available in the UK, is proof that streaming video
can work on the Wii -- like the
Wii no Ma service,
Minna no Theater Wii, and the Nintendo Channel. Well, maybe not that last one, given the stuttery playback of
Nintendo Week whenever we attempt to watch it.
As
rumored, the Wii's iPlayer is moving up from a nice browser-based app to its very own Wii Channel. BBC dated the launch of the new iPlayer download for November 18. It'll be a free download, and, once again, only available in the UK. We'd pay the
licence fee if you'd let us, BBC!
