Though we are still waiting for the supposedly surprise coming in September about the Wii Channels.... I vote DEMO CHANNEL with the first one being a Prime 3 demo [even though the game might already by out].

 It would be cool, but I think there are technical constraints which would get in the way of this. A working demo of a modern game would be a big chunk of data. It would take a long damn time to download on most networks and take up a lot of the Wii's memory, if it could fit at all (I actually have no idea how much flash memory is in those things).

Around the Network

512MB in every Wii. They could make it to download onto an SD Card. But I guess 200MB is enough for a little demo, highly compressed.

Metroid Prime 3 Hype Level: Corrupted

Reviews:

1UP - 9.0 

IGN - 9.5

It is a hardcore game through and through. You will get your ass kicked by bosses. You will be stumped by the sometimes complex, but never overbearing, exploration.

Just make it possible to play demos from SD cards and that should be solved.
