No, I dont think so.
^Thanks Monsteroids^
It cannot play DVDs as it doesn't have an MPEG-2 decoder. This isn't something that can be downloaded and an extra piece of hardware is needed. A new version of the Wii will be released later this year which has the chip but existing Wiis won't be offered an upgrade

A new version? for what? What about us first comers who strived to get our hands on one?
Nintendo will point and laugh..
...but then remind us that the new version will be more expensive.

Is this just rumors or serious news?
the DVD playing functionality is a hardware issue. it cannot be resolved by a download.

im not happy about hearing the news of a new version of the wii im guessing its like the ds and the ds lite but nintendo have made me angry
Please. don't make me laugh, you think nintendo will just let the fans get nothing? Trust me something will be done. Mbaey a free 4000 wii points or a free game or accesory.
