Wii Browser Final Version Released

Wii browser screen

You need a system update, but it sure is good to get out of beta! I’m excited about the possibility of Opera upgrades in the future. Perhaps once we have some memory options available (hopefully via USB) that we can see some tabbed browsing action?

Features include:

  • Parental Control support
  • Optional Internet content filter provided by Astaro (available soon)
  • Shortened start-up time
  • Clearer text when zooming in
  • Improved Wii Remote navigation
  • Improved scrolling and zooming
  • Built-in search via Yahoo! or Google
  • Option to auto-hide the toolbar or have it toggled with the “1″ button
  • New cursor animations and operation sounds
  • Ability to view page security information

    That’s great and all, but couldn’t they work on more important things, i.e. getting Java and Flash 8 to work with it?

    At any rate, it won’t affect me since my Wii isn’t internet-capable, and I’m too broke to afford a USB connector. -_-
