10 Awesome Free Wii Browser Games

Nintendo recently made the Wii’s Opera Web browser free to all, perhaps realizing that only a fool would pay $5 for it. But even with the Internet at the command of your Wii Remote, it’s not clear what to do, especially with no support for Hulu and premium content withheld from YouTube.
Why not play some Wii browser-based video games? The Wii’s browser may only support Flash Lite, but that hasn’t hampered a handful of games designed specifically for the console’s Web browser. I’ve picked 10 of the best, including two-player Tetris, a working Galaxian clone and a full MMORPG, all of which can be bookmarked to play again at any time (To do so, click on the star icon in the browser, then click the icon with the plus sign to bookmark the page you’re on).
So grab a pen and write some of these URLs down, or even better, head to Technologizer through your console, and enjoy some Wii browser games that won’t cost you a dime.

“perhaps realizing that only a fool would pay $5 for it.”
Right, because Youtube and Huluu are the only two reasons to want an internet browser, and clearly $5 is far too expensive. Either you’re a teenager or incredibly dumb, in either case you should take a writing class. Also, not insulting most of your readers with a comment like that, might get you more traffic; might.

Perhaps you should take a writing class. Comma splices are grammatically incorrect. Let's not forget the spelling of Hulu. Bash freely, but only insult someone's grammar if you know the rules yourself.

clearly… jason has no idea what you meant. Jason the point is $5 is too expensive and its pointless. Add it all up and its just too much money for a company to make off of us. Secondly its sarcasm when he talks of only two reasons for surfing the web on a GAME CONSOLE… its for gaming. But if it connects to wifi and gets internet the only useful thing it can do is watch friggn hulu or netflix. Attacking someone who gives info to those who need it or te casual internet surfer who stops by is pointless and reflects your maturity. Get off the computer go to the mall and make some friends. You might actually get a personality, might!!

Jason, there is a difference between “too expensive,” which I never said, and “not worth paying for,” which is what I implied. I could charge you $1 for my belly button lint, and while I’m sure you could afford it, you’d still be foolish to take me up on the offer.

Finally..
I don’t think anyone paid the 5 dollars for it. It’s just pointless.
Great to hear they changed it.
