I've found news that those who have the Internet Channel(that was free but now costs 500 points) can soon watch their favourite BBC programs on their Wii. Apparently all Wii's that are online will be recieving an e-mail letting us know that we can. I'm now seriously considering getting it(500 points is half of 1000, making it £3.50) by trading in my Nintendo stars for Wii points.
The little slips of paper you get with your Nintendo games(so say if you bought a Sega game like Secret rings you don't get any) that says club Nintendo have a code on them. You put that code in online for stars. You can then trade those in for Wii points cards(that come now and again, keep checking them). If anybody has any I'd reccomend they do so. If you don't want them, I'll have them. You can also trade in the stars for extra stuff. I got Haunter and family 2 Pirates of the Carribean toys for free for cashing in those stars. I'd reccomend you take advantage of them.

1) This is confusing, maybe because I just got off of playing a video game for 5 hours straight the only break I had was dinner. LOL, I completed the game in 5 hours lol I'm good
2) What? Stars? Points?

I got em for them cos I know they love Pirates of the Carribean, and I decided not to pass up the offer of 2 free toys.
You cash in the coupons for stars, which you can spend on Wii points(though the exchange rate is appauling-400 stars for 100 points-you'll need 500 to buy a NES game).
Good news, apparently they are planning to make a BBCi player channel as well which should be free. It isn't on the Xbox or PS3 because they apparently wanted to control it, the Wii was willing to let the BBC run it as they wished.

\I won't be buying this or getting this, it seems, a bit pointless, I have Freeview on my TV, and so thats enough for me. BCC is not nessecary for me.

It is useful actually. I've used it to watch the Apprentice throughout the series so far. Why? Because when it's on I'm either too busy working, or somebody else is using the TV. It is very useful, and I will definitly be getting the BBCi player Wii channel Oh, and did somebody say Strong Bad Wiiware game? www.gametrailers.com/player/32714.html?type= |

Yay!
*stabs*
Anywho, in case I didn't make it clear, it's not avaliable yet, but all Wii's that are online will recieve a message to let you know when it is.

I think everybody will get it, or at least the oppertunity to get it. I can also reccomend the Mii contest channel(a great way to get loads of great Mii's) and the Everybody votes channel(pointless but sort of fun). Virtual console games are good too, depending on which ones you get.
