Last Monday the Nintendo Wii got its latest update in the form of Photo Channel 1.1 and Wii Gifting. I doubt too many people will give a second thought to the updated Photo Channel but Wii Gifting is a real smart bit of innovation. Wii Gifting allows you to send Virtual Console titles to anyone on your friend's list. And it's even relatively painless in execution considering Nintendo's online stumbling and friend code hell. It's actually a very cool and fun feature that the other two companies need to adopt a variation of for their respective platforms. Only now I'll actually have to start remembering birthdays and the like for the people I game online with. Already Christmas gifts have gone out and have been received. Good one Nintendo, you get points for this one. And profit, really smart from a business sense, isn't it? Great way to get the people who are already buying Virtual Console titles to buy even more.
