Oh the joy of Wii + internet.

Wii + YouTube

I've been watching YouTube videos on television. The resolution is obviously not great, but it is a joy to be able to search for shows or music videos I have missed because I've lived a lifetime without cable television.




Been listening to this song for what must be a decade now but never saw the video till last night and I realised....I have the same sweater as Damon Albarn; bought it sometime in the late 90s in an Inland Empire thrift store.

Here's his...


Here's mine...

Does that mean you bought the internet browser from the wii store thing?

From IE post dated June 28, 2007, "Summer Ditch Day 2007"

Back at Citizenrobot's house I made myself useful by downloading the Internet browser for her Wii. Do it immediately, readers. Starting next month [July] the freeware will be priced at 500 Wii Shop Points (roughly $5). We were both bummed that the Super Mario World (SNES) download requires a Classic Controller that neither of us had on hand. Oh well.

Have not gone back to verify price as I already have the Wii Ware. So to answer your question: Yes, the store is your browser source; it is also where you would download the Everybody Votes Channel and any Virtual Console games.

I love that you have the same sweater!!! And that you still have yours! I love finding clothes that I owned from the 90's.
