Nintendo TVii launches tomorrow in North America, but it will be missing a few features.
Today’s press release confirmed that Netflix and TiVo support isn’t set to arrive until early 2013. The app won’t be able to access content from a DVR either.
Nintendo of America’s director of network business, Zach Fountain, told the New York Times that it would like to see this realized, but it first needs to reach deals with companies such as Comcast and/or DirecTV.
“We’d love to have DVR integration but we can’t do that without assistance. We’re in discussions to cover that time-shifting portion.”
Fountain also commented on how Nintendo wishes to deliver “a persistent, consistent experience.”
“We don’t believe you should have to change your app when you change the program. TV shows have apps, networks have apps, sports leagues have apps… We want to create a persistent, consistent experience.”
Reggie adds that Nintendo wants the GamePad to become “the super aggregator and super remote.”

New Wii U Service Gives Every Member of the Family His or Her Own Personalized, Easy-to-Use Second-Screen Viewing Experience
REDMOND, Wash.–(BUSINESS WIRE)– The company that changed how we play is about to change how we watch. On Dec. 20, Nintendo will introduce Nintendo TVii, a free, integrated service for the recently launched Wii U console that combines what you watch and how you watch into one seamless, second-screen experience on the revolutionary new Wii U GamePad controller.
The rapid increase in both the quality and availability of video entertainment content – hundreds of satellite and cable channels, a seemingly endless amount of video-on-demand options – has made finding something to watch a complex and occasionally frustrating process. The solution to this problem is coming from perhaps an unexpected place: a video game console.
