Thought I may aswell post this here, not sure if it's of any interest to anyone

From BBC News

BBC announces Nintendo Wii deal

The BBC's iPlayer video service will soon be available via the Nintendo Wii.

The video download and streaming service that lets people catch up with BBC programmes will soon be a channel on the hugely popular game console.

Early versions of the service will be available from 9 April but more polished software will be released as the service is developed

I was playing on wii fit when suddenly during my fittness test I had a message that looked like this

Whoops!
This test can not be continued because the Mii Ginny is currently being deleted.
The Mii Ginny will be replaced with a guest Mii for the next week.
Thank you for your patience.

Any ideas what that could mean or what could have happened?

Nintendo runs a pretty thorough support site. You could try looking up the error there.

And by thorough, I mean that I could have gone there for a full translation of my Japanese DSi's manual instead of having to ask my friends from Japan.

I LOVE the DSi beyond all belief!
What color is? I know the Japanese ones are different.

Mine is just black. The only real difference I can tell is that everything is in Japanese. That, and the region lock on the DSiware. The manual is pretty funny to read too since the examples of what not to do are several pages longer than for the US manual and are pretty wacky.

Hhhmmm... Why would they lock it? Seems a tad pointless to me. Could be I don't quite get what you're saying.

But on another note, I want the next DSi to take screen shots of your game. And I would like a webcam for when you go online.
