Nintendo Delays TVii, Video Streaming to December on Wii U - Confirms YouTube

By Jorge Ba-oh 17.11.2012 4

Nintendo has confirmed a delay for a handful of Wii U launch apps to December - including TVii and Netflix.

Whilst the Wii U is launching with Miiverse, the Nintendo Network and browser as a day-one download, the additional streaming services will become available sometime in December via an eShop download.

The upgrade will give new Wii U owners access to Amazon Instant Videos, Hulu, Netflix, Nintendo's own TVii service plus confirmation that a YouTube app will be available. Users will be able to login to their YouTube account, search and stream the app through the Gamepad menu.

Nintendo will be enhancing the Wii U experience with continuous updates and new services for Wii U owners - Nintendo of America president, Reggie Fils-Aime

I wonder if you'll be able to film stuff with the Youtube app using the Gamepad, and upload to youtube... Or perhaps that's asking for too much from Nintendo, haha.

I don't think they ever confirmed TVii for launch, did they?

And we'll be able to use Youtube on the browser on day 1, right?? Because I'm really looking forward to that. I often have friends around that like to browse Youtube and show movies to the rest.
