Wii no Ma channel expanding with Music Room
Posted on 15 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 1 Comment
The Japanese Wii no Ma channel has housed a ton of video content over the past few months. Soon, however, the channel will be expanding with the addition of the Music Room. According to J-pop artist Becky, users will be able to listen to her music through Wii no Ma starting on December 5.
It’s possible that, besides music, Nintendo will make other rooms available. Recently, a few trademarks were found such as the Book Room, Manga Room, and of course, Music Room. It certainly seems as though Nintendo may have some big plans with the Wii no Ma channel in the future.

Posted on 15 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 3 Comments
Chart-Track data from the UK has revealed that the Wii is the fastest-selling console in the country. Ever. The system made its debut three years ago and since then, more than six million units have been sold. The milestone was reached just before the Wii’s third anniversary in the UK, on November 28.
“With its inclusive, family friendly and fun nature, we’re very pleased Wii seems to have captured the imagination of over six million families across the UK and reached such a landmark sales figure in such a short space of time. We’ll work even harder to ensure that the interest in Wii stretches over months and years, appealing to people of all ages and gaming experience.”
