Nintendo Announces WiiWare

Well, Nintendo finally made the announcement that everyone knew was coming eventually. Today they announced that original downloadable content will be available for sale on the Wii Shop channel, under the name WiiWare. Wii owners may already be familiar with the big WiiWare button in the shop menu.


Unfortunately, Nintendo stated in their announcement that the first WiiWare content wont be available until early 2008.

The concept of wii development being open to developers small and large thanks to the low cost and risk of electronic distribution is certainly promising. Lets hope that the late launch of this service means that Nintendo is really taking their time to do things right.
