According to data published by Nielsen, 25% of Wii owners are streaming Netflix through Wii. That beats out the PlayStation 3 (13%) and Xbox 360 (12%).

Data for Hulu watching is also available in the graphic above, but it’s not too interesting. A large majority of viewers access Hulu through their computer rather than consoles or other means.

Following Nintendo’s Q1 2011 financial results, Nintendo and Satoru Iwata have just wrapped up an earnings briefing in Tokyo. Iwata spoke to investors about a number of topics, ranging from Wii U to salary cuts for the Nintendo president himself and other executives.

As you would expect, the 3DS was also discussed in great detail. Iwata touched on the the system’s new price point and one of the reasons behind the decision is actually quite interesting. Iwata explained that Nintendo felt that they missed out on an opportunity with the GameCube and didn’t want to make the same mistake with 3DS. That’s just one of a few explanations that were provided.

For more on the 3DS price drop and the briefing in general, read on below.


Nintendo has officially translated the name of the new Fatal Frame game as “Zero Shinsaku”. Based on what we’ve seen of it so far, it’s a remake of Fatal Frame 2.

In other news, Mario Kart 7 is also scheduled for a December release in Japan while Super Mario 3D Land launches in November as well.

Check out the full release “schedule” above.
