Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Wii Video on demand Service coming to the West, may include same content

scottie on 05 May 2009

Thread title wasn't great, sorry

According to this source

http://wii.qj.net/Iwata-Wii-no-Ma-overseas-deployment-is-under-planning/pg/49/aid/130985

 

 "Wii-no-Ma service is available only in Japan at the start, but the overseas deployment is under planning in the future," said Iwata.

 

Iwata also added that the Japanese content may find its way to our shores, saying

"As Japanese videogames, anime or manga are very favoured all over the world, we also anticipate a great possibility of same spread for video programmes."

Wow, I didn't expect the content to be the same. That's awesome and I hope it works out (and is available with subtitles).

That would kick ass, an actual provision of anime content in the US that isn't

A. Fan-subs on linksites
B. Extensively overpriced DVDs
C. Those 4 hours that Adult Swim still runs it.

Wonder how much Wii points it will cost, though.
