Just yesterday the Wii weather Channel became online and available to all the lucky people who bought a Wii in time for this Christmas.

Users who had the console connected to the internet received a message saying they should download the update to start using the new channel which you can use to see the temperature forecast for the next 5 days of your home town.

Of course you can also use the remote to circle around the globe (very inspired in Google Earth) and see how sunny Brazil is right now or how could people are in Antartica. Brrrr.

Meanwhile, Nintendo also announced that this friday, the Opera browser will be available for download as well, allowing you to, well browse the internet using the television. The only downside is you’ll have to pay 500 points (5 euros) in March if you want to continue to use it because it’s a trial version, until then happy browsing.

There’s a nice collection of screens over at EsferaGames descriving the Weather Channel. On another note, this friday (in Europe) you’ll be able to download on the Wii Virtual Console three new games including Tennis (NES), Space Harrier II (Genesis) and Military Madness (TG-16).

There’s been rumors flying around of Nintendo dropping a few extra presents on Christmas night, Mario anyone?

Finally if you’re interested, Wii Fanboy has released a handy schedule with the launch dates of the upcoming Wii titles in Europe, catch it here. There’s also a similar list by DS Fanboy but for the Nintendo DS. It’s a pity these titles take so long to arrive in Europe. I’m hoping a import solution comes soon.

I’m having a great time with my Wii and I’m expecting a nice Christmas with everyone giving their best on a tennis match in Wii Sports. :P

Note: Can you find out how many times I’ve mentioned the word Wii on this post?

Social networking hits the comic scene!

At Comic Vine you can discover everything about your favourite heroes and furthermore help complete the missing information.

You can browse by character profile, rank super-heroes by powers, teams or popularity, see the most relevant comic issues where they appeared and participate in the forums.

So why is there so few topics on Green Lantern?

Anyway, head over to Comic Vine and participate in the fun.
