Please don't use channel as it is very misleading.
It's a Virtual Console game, not a channel. Though they are in the same place, a VC game doesn't work like a channel and just plain isn't one.

The only thing you get by putting internet video on a large tv is the video gets more pixelated.

Meh, good luck.
The majority of the things you will find on the internet (don't even try youtube) will look pretty bad on your TV. But I watched the office on it and I didn't really mind. Then again, we don't have an HDTV so I'm not spoiled by anything. :P

Damn, internet video must look really shitty on that tv since it isn't even 480p. Nice waste of an HDTV.

I am so sorry you can't read. I am perfectly sure you gay little HDTV has a wonderful picture . . .what I doubt is that you can do it justice by streaming video off the internet to the screen. Maybe you should invest in an HD-DVD player.

They should make the following channels:
DVD channel
Music channel (you could import music from your PC)
DS channel (play ds games on your tv through bluetooth)
Demo channel or downloadable demos for wii and ds at the shop
Upgradable mii channel (more facial features and a bigger plaza)
