Technically, I guess I threw the party, but I couldn’t have done it without Nintendo and Netflix. In fact, they asked me to host a gathering in my home, for all of my friends, and they provided the fabulous food and entertainment, with little left for me to do.
My friends and I had a blast, as we watched the kids play new Wii games, but the best part was when we all settled down with popcorn and movie candy and watched Curly Sue, while it streamed through Netflix on our Wii.
You see, with a Netflix subscription you can watch all of the movies and shows you’d like with just the wave of a Wii wand, without having to wait for a DVD to arrive in the mail. It’s really quite convenient and super easy to use.

Would you like to try it? I have a Wii disc, good for a free 3-month Netflix trial, for three of you to win. Just leave me a comment and tell me why you’d like to try Netflix on your Wii. I’ll pick the winners next weekend.

Honestly, I didn’t even know this was possible! We’ve subscribed to Netflix in the past but it always seems like the dvds we have in hand aren’t the ones we want to watch and get returned unseen. This seems like a way better idea!

I LOVE Netflix for the Wii! My kid is now able to watch cute little shows like Bob the Builder anytime!

What a cool feature! I would love to try this since I can never seem to return my RedBox rentals on time.

We were just considering a Netflix account. We already have a Wii (wish they could throw in some party food here too lol). Anyways, as a family of six, it’s just not easy to up and go to the movies whenever we feel like it, especially with the cost of movie tickets these days. I can’t even tell you the last time we rented a movie (starting to feel a little out of touch lol). Besides, i’m mostly a homebody, so it would be a perfect fit!
