Re: [H] Wii ?
Wii reads Nintendo proprietary DVD media only, no DVD-Video's. The only GC that did was the Panasonic Q released in Japan. Why not DVD-Video? Your guess is a good as anyone's! Seems Nintendo are asshats because there are glaring "duh! why?" missing features like media player for MP3/WMA/Divx/DVD-V/etc... & remote samba share connectivity, then you have the hight cost of virtual console titles & charging $5 for Opera while actively preventing homebrew software of any form. It's a nice little unit but it's only real strong point is innovative controllers that are about to exist for most every console & PC if you believe the marketing hype about In2Games Gametrack Fusion. We got a Wii for xmas and even though it's got some "neat" titles for family fun, sadly both heavy-hitter titles I coveted, Godzilla & Destroy All Humans, are buggy + have shit local & no network multiplayer. Of course I won't be out grabbing a XB360 or Ps3 anytime soon either given cost, being forced to mod, failures, etc... when my PC just kicks their ass anyway.

Re: [H] Wii ?
The Wii won't, however, play DVD movies. It doesn't have a disk, but it can use SD cards. Has some small amount of local memory, 512M? not sure. I'm a big fan of the "Virtual Console" -- using the wii's wireless internet connectivity you can buy old console games for a couple bucks. There's an ever growing list of titles available (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Virtual_Console_games_%28North_America%29 ) Think Geek managed to get some of the latest Japanese games imported recently -- there are some really "creative" titles out there: http://www.thinkgeek.com/stuff/41/superpiipii.html Scott On Apr 1, 2008, at 9:03 PM, James Boswell wrote: Wii uses DVD, and will also read the mini-DVD's that the Gamecube used.
