Press release from Datel:

Turn your Wii or Cube into a Happening Media Machine with MAX Media Player!

You know how it is. You’ve got the family around, drinking your wine and munching their way through your groceries, happily chatting about a previous family meeting. Thing is, you’ve a great home video of the event. You filmed uncle Harold making a fool of himself dancing to MTV, your kid brother tripping over the dog and your cousin and her new boyfriend snogging on the sofa when they thought no one was looking. You just have to show them to your folks…

Trouble is, the movies are on your computer, and your computer is elsewhere in the house. In a tiny room. Which is full of your junk. There’s no way you can squeeze the entire family around your PC, so what do you do? Easy! You use MAX Media Player, and watch them on the GameCube or Wii that’s sitting under your living-room tellie…

With MAX Media Player, you can play movies and more on Nintendo’s next-gen Wii console, or on their last-gen bundle of fun, the GameCube. Just transfer it to the supplied 1GB Micro SD card using the USB Adapter supplied. Then plug your Micro SD card into one of the two memory card adapters, for the Cube or the Wii, and you’re away. You can at last play your happening movies on your console, in the comfort of your living room, without having to create a home network.

But MAX Media Player isn’t just for movies. You can also play MP3s with it – just the thing if you need some digital music to get the party started!

MAX Media Player features everything you need to turn your Nintendo GameCube or Wii into a fully-functional media box. You can store all sorts of data on your 1GB Mini SD card, transferring your music and movies using the USB connector supplied. You then slot your Mini SD card into the SD Media Launcher or the SD Adapter, depending on whether you’re using a Cube or a Wii, then you’re ready to play! There’s even a hand controller in there so you can manage your movies and music without getting out of your chair!

In shops soon

Sounds like they've just renamed the SD Media Launcher

Yeah, I understand why people would want this for the Cube, but the Wii already does all that stuff.
