Then why didn't the X360 come with a special version of IE to compete with Nintendo?!
I dont think the target audience for the 360 would even bother with a web browser, that kinda crew imo would be more interested in playing their games online via the excellent Live!.
Regarding the actual browser for the Wii, it does infact use the pointer on the Wiimote, the setup should be familiar to tablet users, 'cept you're pointing in thin-air to the actual screen, rather then on a plastic pad which mimics the corner layout.
Also regardin a special version of IE.....would suck to surf the net with a joystick. It's already bad enough as is on the PSP.
(geez I feel like such a nerd with regards to WiiKnowledge)
