Nintendo Wii downloads are essential in order to take full advantage of the extensive capabilities of your Nintendo console. Straight out of the box, your Wii boasts a massive hard drive and state-of-the-art multimedia functionality. Much more than just a mere gaming console, your Wii can serve as the showpiece of your media room-playing downloaded songs, movies, music videos and downloadable Wii games.

This unlocks not only traditional internet features, but also the ability to join Wii game downloads that specialize in providing a huge range of download options. Once you have a URL browser installed you can use your Wii for surfing the internet.

Several download options exist – some of which are completely free, others charge on a per-item basis. Of the fee-based sites, many offer membership by the month-and the best of these offer a flat fee in exchange for access to their complete download library. For those finding their preferred game is sold out, a Wii download site may be a viable alternative. In fact, several of the old Nintendo Classics games are only available through Wii download sites such as these.
