Forums - Nintendo - Wii Opera Browser version 2!

Nintendo are currently planning the release of a new update for the Wii Opera Browser. Version 2.0 will enable tab support, allowing users to hold six pages at once, as well as allow users to access their Wii mail posts without having to return to the Wii channel front page. The service will also undergo tweaks and trims for ease of use.







The browser is also said to be compatible with Nintendo’s new Wii Speak microphone, though details of its purpose are currently absent.

The 2.0 browser will replace its predecessor in the Wii Shop and continue to cost 500 Wii Points, though Wii owners who already have the service do not have to pay for the upgrade. The update is set to hit the Australian Wii Shop this December.

this is great, one of the main reasons i dont use it often is because you can only have 1 page up at a time. 6 tabs should be great.

Damn lab rats! :(

Oh... don't panic if you don't get the joke.



Random game thought :
Why is Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 getting so much hate? We finally get a real game and they're not even satisfied... I'm starting to hate the gaming community so f****** much...

Watch my insane gameplay videos on my YouTube page!

Good news for Soriku!

My advice to fanboys: Brag about stuff that's true, not about stuff that's false. Predict stuff that's likely, not stuff that's unlikely. You will be happier, and we will be happier.

I have the most epic death scene ever in VGChartz Mafia.  Thanks WordsofWisdom! 

I would put money on what the Wii Speak interaction is likely to be. Opera has had voice commands for a long time now. Seems logical that they would allow the Wii version to use them as well.

This is great news! I've been wanting a Wii browser upgrade for a long time now. They better fit a flash upgrade into this package. Version 7 (?) doesn't cut the mustard anymore.

This will be an interesting upgrade, even though I have a PC in my living room right next the the TV!

Here's hoping for flash 9... Hopefully it won't eat up another 150+ blocks, my storage is getting pretty tied this way.

Don't it cost some Wii points?






What will cost WII points?

The browser? I thought I read something about 400 points.
