Wii with Mii!

My coworker told me today that the Wii can stream Netflix as well! Anyone use it? Does it work? Love it? Hate it?

It does, but I think you have to send out for a DVD or something like that.

I don't have one so I can't give you anymore details.

I know Netflix works really well with the PS3 though

your wii has to be internet enabled and then you need the disc

i'll be trying it out over the summer.

I love my Wii but I need a new TV to play it on. Trying to play on my 20 y/o tv is just painful. I hope to remedy that by winter. I don't play Wii much in the summer but in the winter it can keep me occupied. I plan on using the netflix option next winter for movie fun.

I don't have one but I have had fun at a few friends' house BOXING and BOWLING. SO fun!!!

We made our Mii's last night - Mine is surprisingly lifelike but Jack wasn't impressed that it appeared that all of the female Wii's had to wear the dress.
Can that be changed?!!

Not that I'm aware of. I just used a boy. Mine is fairly accurate as well. Well except for the lack of hips. Oh well.

After playing my neighbors Wii a few months ago I was hooked and had to go out the next day and buy one.

To avoid being stuck with bad games I first read the reviews online before I buy .

If your into the old school pinball machines there's Pinball Hall Of Fame, they have the Williams collection and the Gottlieb collection, both are fun, just like your playing a real pinball machine, and the graphics are excellent.

Carnival is also a fun Multi Player game. It has all the great classic carnival games, like balloon darts, water clown, and even a dunk tank.

My last purchase was The Godfather, a great shootumup game. I had this game for my old xbox and loved it so I had to get the Wii version..

I stream Netflix on my Blu-Ray player. Sometimes the picture can look a little muddled, due to the fact that we have a bad connection sometimes with the broadband. I talked to our cable company about it, and they recommended upgrading our modem to a N router.

I love being able to stream Netflix, though. Best thing ever when you are sick or laid up with an injury.

I set up my Wii with the Netflix disc last weekend. It works great. Too well. I have watched an entire season of Lie To Me and Dollhouse. Needless to say, I love it.
