Netflix now available on Wii

Netflix has finally launched in the UK this week, and much like it’s US arm, the company is offering their streaming service on the Wii. Simply head over to the Wii Shop Channel and download the dedicated Netflix Channel for free to begin your month trial. The service costs £5.99 after this but with a wealth of content on there (Sonic Underground is a must-watch SEGA fans) the trial alone is worth checking out. No news on a 3DS version yet, but expect some sort of announcement soon!
