Many of you have probably already dug right into Nintendo's new Wii offering, the appropriately titled Nintendo Channel. For those of you who haven't grabbed it from the Wii Shop Channel though, we'd like to humbly present our guided photo tour of the service.

Maybe it's because the menus aren't hyper-intuitive or maybe it was because we thought some of you would be stuck at work and would like to see what that pulsating blue light boded for you when you returned home. Or maybe we just like taking pictures of our television. Either way, the fruits of our labor await.

Nintendo Channel goes live on Wiis

Five days before we thought it would be arriving, the Nintendo Channel has just been released onto unsuspecting Wiis. We're currently feverishly downloading it, so we can't give you the skinny just yet, but we know that it allows users to write reviews for WiiWare titles they've played and provides sortable lists of upcoming games.

The update also includes DS demos that will live on the system's brain until it gets shut off. Like the Memento guy, it will forget the whole thing ever happened. We'll be back soon with a full rundown of what's on the channel.

Nintendo Channel coming to US with WiiWare launch

Nintendo will launch the aptly-titled Nintendo Channel alongside WiiWare in the US on May 12, according to Wired. There will be no demos for WiiWare titles, but users will have the ability to share reviews of WiiWare titles if they've played them for at least an hour. It will also provide sortable lists of upcoming games.

While a far cry from The New York Times' "full game downloads" claim in January, DS owners can download demos that will then be sent to the portable and last until it's shut off. The Japanese version, launched in November 2007, also provides videos. The Nintendo Channel is coming to Europe on May 30.
