Wii Opera browser - Image 1


*UPDATE* Our original source for this was the Japanese Wii developer's site "Us.Wii.com(.jp)." Just recently, all the Japanese-language text has been conveniently translated to English, and we have updated the Read link, so you can get the devs' own thoughts without the cumbersome humor of Engrish translations.

Trust us - their commentary is a heck of a lot better than backseat analysis.



There are a bunch of new videos showcasing the improvements added to the Wii Opera browser over at Wii.com. As of right now, the current list of improvements include the following:
  • Better zooming and scrolling
  • Better-looking zoomed font
  • Quicker startup times
  • Quicker access to your favourites
  • User can now erase the toolbar
  • Buttons that instantly type common preset letters ("www", ".com", etc.)
The videos can't be embedded, though, so if you wanna check them out you can do that by clicking on the "read" link below. To watch the vids, just click on the blue links next to the Play icon that you'll come across on the website.

Also, the website's in Japanese, but if you're just looking for a demonstration of Opera Software's Wii browser's new and improved features
then you won't need the ability to read and understand Nihonggo like a native. Kudos to Virgil for the heads up.

How about USING A KEYBOARD AND MOUSE, seeing how we now have a couple useless USB ports. Jesus, Nintendo, pull your head out of your ass!
