I posted back in January that Netflix was coming out with an instant streaming disk for the Nintendo Wii
Console.
I received that Disk on Saturday and wow I am so impressed! I really questioned what the picture quality would be streaming from my Internet through the Wii, but we have watched about 5 movies since I got the disc and the all looked just fine.
They are not HD but I could care less as we own a regular DVD player any way so the movies we get aren't HD even thought our TV is.
This just makes our Netflix subscription even more valuable! I was actually contemplating getting a streaming devise just for this feature woot now I don't have to.
The only thing I cant think of that would make me happier is if there was a bigger selection of titles that you can watch on demand. Don't get me wrong they have a lot but maybe in the future having more new releases could solve the frustration that some experience. To me its not big deal to wait a bit for newer movies on my cheque but it really irks some.
So if you have a Wii and are looking for a great alternative to watching pricey movies in the theater check out Netflix. I pay 15.00 a month for 2 movies at a time and unlimited amount per month as well as unlimited streaming!
When we used to rent movies we could have easily spent that in one trip at almost 5.00 per movie! Then we had to remember to return them in a certain amount of time or be charged again! It was a pain, but thankfully I never have to do that again.
Netflix is super quick too! The turn around for me is 2 days! Send em back say Monday and have new ones by Wednesday. LOVE it you should really look into it.

We got our Wii disc in the mail this past weekend too and were so excited to use it! My husband loves it and has shown me a few times now how fast it works on our tv! I agree it would be nicer to have more new release options, but the ones in the mail come quickly, so I'm content with how it is right now!
