There's no need for an excuse because it MUST be done - this is the
Wii that we're talking about here!
Don't forget to send me your friend cod...oh wait, your
brothers Wiiiii friend code once you know it, Billy.

How is Prawn by the way? Not spoken to him in a while.
Send me your friend code too, Fox! We've all gotta have a big game when Super Smash Bros. Brawl comes out!

Oh...I should ask if you have wireless internet, Billy? If not, you'll need to get the Nintendo Wifi connector to be able to access the internet and play games online. Make sure you update your Wii regularly or leave it on standby mode as well (Orange power light instead of a red power light) - the Wii will automatically download updates as and when they come. This weeks' update updated the photo channel to v1.1, allowing you to set a photo of your choice as the icon for the photo channel. It also changed the supported memory card audio format from .mp3 to .acc because it apparently has higher sound quality for roughly the same file size. Unfortunately that means .mp3's are no longer supported
at all.To download the updated photo channel, go to Wii settings and perform an update. Once the update is complete, go to the wii shop channel and select Wii software. The updated photo channel is in there. If you haven't already done so, you will also be able to download the Internet Channel, the Mii Contest Channel, and the Metroid Prime Preview channel. Wii software is always free, but you will have to pay to download back titles. I've downloaded Lylat Wars and F-Zero so far, but there are plenty of games to choose from and more titles are added every Friday.
