So is this pay-per-view or free? Streaming or Download, then watch?--96.15.235.38 (talk) 17:33, 1 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

nintendo channel?

uhh why exactly is it still called "wii no ma" when it is "nintendo channel" in english? someone should correct this —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.238.160.157 (talk) 22:41, 9 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It's not the Nintendo Channel. They are two separate channels with separate functions. There actually is a Japanese Nintendo Channel too.--98.134.210.205 (talk) 02:52, 14 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Sourcing

Hello User:Onel5969, it seems you have a problem with this page not having enough sources or them not being reliable. I would like to ask... exactly what is wrong with it? Most of the information can be found by trying out the Wii no Ma channel itself, and thus in many cases we can't really source anything better than a YouTube video or a website that briefly mentions it. Plus, much of this page is translated from the Japanese version of the page. This is lately a very relevant page that is being checked by many on the Wii community and we would like to remove any issue it may have. Thank you for your time.

YouTube is not a reliable source. And the Wii sources are primary. 21:09, 13 February 2022 (UTC)

Thank you for your response. YouTube videos are merely showing the channel (there is no better source that I can find other than just... trying the channel itself), and primary sources are the only good enough source, due to this being an obscure channel. I believe no better sources can exist, but I'll try to fix it. LunaValoäa (talk) 15:17, 14 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I would unfortunately have to agree with LunaValoäa, as I recently just did a lot of research on Wii No Ma myself, and found that YouTube videos from when the service was available were the closest things to primary sources we currently have. They aren't the most reliable, but the footage in these videos does line up with what is said in the article, and I think should be enough proof. 5l64b0y-February 22, 2022 — Preceding undated comment added 19:27, 22 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

2009 Video Game?

Wii No Ma (Wii Room) is a service provided on the nintendo wii, the descriptor of "2009 video game" sets the wrong message of the nature of Wii No Ma PerryPerryD (talk) 22:00, 23 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Well, it is a bit of a grey area, but I think it should be considered a video game, given that it's not something more dull like YouTube or Netflix, rather a full environment with different rooms, characters and music, and that it runs on a video game console. But it is not strictly one, so not marking it as one would not be incomprehensible. LunaValoäa (talk) 18:32, 24 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
