Netflix on the Nintendo Wii – video review.

March 27th, 2010 by stuffaboutlife | 1 Comment | Filed in Technology

Netflix is finally available for streaming on the Nintendo Wii. My streaming disc arrived in the mail this morning, and I did a short video review.

The audio quality isn’t that great. Sorry about that. But, the video itself came out ok and you can see how easy it is to set up and get everything going.

Pros:

  • Being able to browse by category is nice
  • Being able to add stuff/remove stuff from the queue is nice
  • Interface works well, and it’s pretty fast.

Cons:

  • Video quality isn’t HD, but that’s a limitation of the Nintendo Wii. The Xbox 360 version looks better.
  • If you lose the disc, no streaming for you.

Netflix streaming on the Wii.

March 26th, 2010 by stuffaboutlife | Comments Off | Filed in Technology

I got an email last night saying that my Netflix Streaming disc for the Nintendo Wii was shipping and I should have it today.

The mail hasn’t arrived yet, but when it does, I plan on testing it out and giving a review. The disc is free and streaming is available with any Netflix plan that’s $8.99 or more.
