Vio's 'Online-Tipp' of the day!

WiiWare World snatched its first moment of fame as German TV Show Wiimotion treated its viewers to a glimpse of our beloved pages on Monday on their WiiWare special show.

WiiWare World’s older cousin VC Reviews is no stranger to such fame, Vio Tensil of Wiimotion has already featured it on the show last year, and it even got another mention again this time.

As we are no experts in the German language we cannot tell you if what Vio had to say was good or bad, but we like to think that she was pretty impressed with what she saw. Details of Japanese WiiWare games, exclusive videos of Pirates: Key of Dreams and more. What more could a girl want?

Without going into too much detail right now - you got some quite favourable reporting here. They particularly seem to be taken by the specialization on WiiWares (as they were on the VC-Reviews sister, which is also mentioned).
Good work, guys! :)

.... Do you have a connection to Germany TV or what? As I remeber, you guys were on Germany TV back then with VC Reviews.

Or, someone here among us, someone is a TV producer.

Congrats though for your site to be on TV.

What can we say, we just go down well with Germans! We have the 'Hasslehoff' quality! :D

I noticed the site isn't optimized for the Wii browser like VC reviews is. Is that in the works?

If anyone's getting paid, it's me lol ;)

I'm on here on the browser now. Everything is fine.

Of course Drake will have to be the first to be paid! His cheque for 50 pence is on it's way over to him as we speak :D

@morphballer - The new VC:R doesn't do anything different when on the Wii browser either. All that has gone long ago :p

I didn't know anyone actually used the Wii browser. :)

Actually we do make a slight change for the Wii browser, we make the font slightly bigger ;) but we shouldn't need two versions of the site.. this one should be usable on both Wii and PC!

Exactly the point Phan Ant .
Works fine on my Wii at this very moment .

I use the internet channel every day which is why its harder to decide what to delete ready for the Everybody Nintendo Channel tomorrow (I think) .

In fact its the reason i got the USB keyboard that im using now .
Glad for the 3.0 update & the internet channel update that was released shortley later .

Congratulations! Appearing on TV is quite big... even if it is German...
Well Done! ;D

On German TV, huh? Alright, now let's shoot for G4 or some UK show!

Congrats guys! I love VC:R and this site as well. Clean, great info, good community, etc.

Keep up the great work!

If you want to get on G4 they would have to squeeze you in between the 800 episodes of Cops. Every now and then the "TV for gamers" actually talks about video games. What a novel idea

Man I miss the old G4, where the G meant Gaming. Now the G means Graveyard because all kinds of old 90s shows go there to die. :(
