I'm just wondering of a few things on it...  Is that what allows the Nintendo Wii to connect to the Computer (and Internet, etc., of course)? Before buying anything, I want to know if it does what I'd be getting it for or not. I think there's something like in that picture in the Wal-Mart in town. |

Aye, that's what it does. No other costs involved. Just plug-in, install and play.
EDIT:
Just to make sure you don't get confused. The Wi-Fi connector works for both the Wii and DS.

Excellent, and I don't think it's very expensive. So maybe with that, I could have what I need to play Wii games online, Pokémon Battle Revolution eventually, and finally, the much inticipated; Super Smash Bros. Brawl! ^_^
I wonder if it'll have downloadable content for the game, that'd be neat, but I somehow doubt it...SSBB will be great no matter what though.
And I forgot, there is some thing you can get from the Internet for the Wii for free until June/July (can't remember which one), what is it again? And, if it's gotten before June/July, would it continue to be free to keep after it's gone past June/July?

Which is the Wii's very own Web browser, watch YouTube videos, post in forums and surf the web with the Wiimote and TV!! ^_^ Don't forget all the new channels you'll get like...the Forecast, Shop, News and Everybody Votes Channel. Heaps of shit to play around with. >>! |

Great. And it's all for free I imagine (except if I were to get something from the Shop, I guess), all the channels. That'll give me a lot more I can do with the Wii!

It's not rocket science man. Plug it into the USB port. That's why it's called a Wi-Fi USB Connector. It gives you Wi-Fi. That's why Wi-Fi is there in the title. It is indeed wireless, hence the words wireless access point right up there.
If you just paid attention you wouldn't be so confused.

Why pay attention when we have people like DAN to do it for us? >.>'

So, what? Does this mean even if I download the Wii Opera Browser before June, there'd still be a charge of $5 (US) each and every month after June? Please say it ain't so. My parents won't like to have to do that...I don't know if they would...

Oh sweet, only 5 bucks. ^_^
I thought it was going to be like, 30, or somthing... I haven't looked into it much, since I CAN'T get internet on mah Wii yet... I might hire someone to come out, and wire the upstairs... Stupid Wireless sucks major... T-T

I thought having to pay every month for it wasn't a good thing...I'll just have to see if they'll do that, maybe if I thought of something in return.

No, it's not monthly. There's only one-time charges on the Wii. (It's a Wii points price on shop channel.)

That's all? 1 payment of $5? Great! But, does it have to be payed for with Wii Points? They're pretty expensive to buy...I think you have to get them 2000 points a purchase, no less, and that isn't cheap...maybe I could leave that for my coming birthday several months from now, and just get a good taste of it fairly soon for a while (before June).

Yes, I'm sure it's Wii points only. IT's a downloaded add-on. And 2000 Wii points isn't too bad... Although, 10$ for 1000 would be better.

You can use credit cards to purchase Wii points, you know...

Actually, I didn't know that, I've never gotten a single Wii Point, any which way, in a store or from the Internet.
So basically, 100 Wii Points = $1, so I guess Wii Points seem to be more valuable than that for downloads. I mean, 500 Wii Points for the Wii Opera Browser seems very low and reasonable, almost too good to be true, I'm finding it hard to believe it takes just 1 payment of the equvilant of $5 to have to permanently.

Yeah, I was thinking it was a 2000-3000 point item... But IDK...

It really isn't a deal at all. Here's why.
- To have the Wii online in the first place, you have to have a computer and an internet connection already. Browsing online with your Wii should be a last resort. Because...
- Console browsers suck. Though the Wii has the best browser out of the box, and supports a keyboard like the other two consoles, it's still really a last resort.
- Why pay $5 to browse the internet? YOU'RE ALREADY PAYING TO DO IT ON YOUR RELIABLE COMPUTER!
