Wii with Mii

If you have a Wii I want to be friend. You can either view my what little is shown at MiiPlaza.net or just add my wii code to your address book. Just make sure to tell me so I can add you.
Wii Code# 5194-0211-3676-0825

I’d also like to say Nintendo better fix this whole code thing and make up usernames for people. Because a 1216 digit code is horrible to have to remember and share with friends. Making it worse the Wii doesn’t even do friend confirmations. Both users have to add one another to the address book in order for it to work. What a hassle. On XBox live I had a gamertag and if I wanted to add a friend I’d just type their name in and they would get a message confirming the request and vise versa. It shouldn’t be that hard.

At least the wii does e-mailing, if you wanted to spend 10 minutes writing a short message to someone that could only reply to your wii address. Making e-mail worse if you actually had a real e-mail address like I’d expect from every wii owner.

Microsoft’s Xbox Live Video

Microsoft’s Xbox Live Video: HDTV and HD movie downloads for your 360 - Engadget

The service is called Xbox Live Video, and the fall update enables customers to spend their Microsoft points on standard and HD television from CBS, MTV, Comedy Central, VH1, Turner, and UFC, as well as HD movies from Warner Bros., Paramount, and so on. We’re still a little in shock, ourselves, that Microsoft was able to in one fell swoop hit TiVo, Apple, Netflix, and a handful of others, but looking at Live over the last year, the move isn’t that massively surprising. Of course, not even the vision of on-demand HD movies and TV downloads in six million homes at the flick of a switch could be without its variety of niggling concerns; being that we all know the devil’s in the details, click on to get the particulars of the service.

This is such great news. I thought it was a rumer but it’s confirmed now. The first two problems that came to my mind, ABC and Disney wont ever be on board and you can’t take the movies anywhere unless someone else has a 360.
