*RUMOR* Download demos on Wii - confirmed?
via ninevolved
Reports are now coming out that Nintendo will be releasing Wii demo's, via the Wii's online service. One Neo-Gaf reader says this is true,
Revealed: Wii-Demo Downloads
Wii owners with an internet connection will be able to download wii demos.
This has been suspected for some time; now it is official: Alongside the virtual console, Wii fans with an internet connection will be able to download demo versions of Wii titles. The demoes can either be saved on the 512 MB console flash memory or on a seperate SD card. Soon, Nintendo will announce which titles they start with.
Hmm, so anyone think that this German site is credible? Im not sure what to believe, but demo's online would be great, all I know is that I need to get my Wii's internet connection fixed!

Horray, time to fill up the horribly small storage space on the Wii with a handful of demos.

seeing as how demos easily hit the 500 mB mark on new games.... they must be planning on releasing simple demos if they want lots of people to get them... unless they are demos for virtual console games.

As much as i want it to be true, i dont think it will be, As "Punkypine" says the games come on 4gig DVD's a demo will be well into 500megs, i just dont think the wii is set up to download files that big! DOnt get me wrong if they did do it, it would make my Day/week :-)

Wii is more than capable of downloading 500mb of data... if you left it overnight im sure you would get it by morning...

Im more thinking about the space it has. People and "non gamers" will get confused if they HAVE to buy a SD card to download demos. For this reason nintenod want to keep the Wii simple and easy. i would say they will not let people download 500+megs but i 1000000% hope they do. Come on Nintendo pull one out of the bag
