Wii New Zealand Software Update
December 19, 2006 . Posted in Uncategorized.
Nintendo has updated the software for its newly released Wii.
With this occasion they have enabled the Weather Channel. Some of the features that you can find by browsing this channel include:
- settings for your local weather: choosing the location, the metric system, etc
- 5 day forecast
- global weather info (a nice touch is the capability to spin the globe)
- weather specific sounds (e.g. rain)
I was surprised to see that the console defaulted to New Zealand. Though it is not technologically difficult to implement I must confess that it was nice to see that they took this into consideration.
I wonder how well implemented the News Channel will be!
Well done big N!
Cheers…
