Netflix Goes Wii

[BreakABone]

And now the triangle is complete.

And much like the PS3 is disc based, and of course being the Wii won't be able to display HD content.

But of course, I will get the free disc. You can never have too many ways to access Netflix. :lol:

Yes you can Earl. Xbox has the best Netflix. You cannot disagree.

Someone's being argumentative today for argumentative's sake.

He never said that XBOX didn't have the best Netflix. He didn't even say that Wii had the best Netflix. All he said was that he's going to get it because it doesn't hurt to have another method to access.

Don't see anything wrong with choice.

I guess Moogles point was the Earl has all 3 consoles, why does he need Netflix for his Wii when he has it on the PS3, but more importantly, the 360 which has the best overall Netflix.

I think I asked this before on the PS3 Netflix thread, but what makes the X360 version better?

[ZebraRampage]

Is this worth if it doesn't have HD? I mean, my parents have FIOS, so we can just order stuff On Demand if we want it, and we have two HD TVs, so I don't really see a point in me getting it.

We all know BaB's crazy and has too much money.

Okay for the record, it doesn't cost me anytime more than I'm already playing for Netflix so why the hell not?

[Bond]

I could see having netflix on multiple consoles if they are hooked up to different televisions. If not, I would probably just keep it to the console with the best interface, as I believe the content is the same on each.

I'm not sure some are understanding -- the Netflix disc is free and hassle-free to get for PS3 and Wii. So why not get it if you think you might ever use it in the future?

[Thespis721]

Hell, even if you don't plan to use it in the future, it doesn't hurt to get it. A lot of people could have a real use (especially if they only have a Wii), but also, the Wii, being the most portable system of the three, would actually be the best for picking up and taking to a friend's house to watch some movies. Netflix DRMs their machines, not their location.

The only movies you are able to stream are either really old or really bad anyways. meh

Oh I could easily answer your question, but I wasn't the one making the statement. ;)

And yes who is Mana. That is a question for us all to ponder.

A comparison of all 3 services.
I am partial to the red background on the 360.
Personally, I prefer the Wii's navigational setup.
But will stick with 360 because it has no disc, and I am that lazy haha.

I guess I can use this as an excuse to start the free trial huh? Been waiting for this.
