tried youtube this morning. got the javascript mesaage......... come on nintendo whats the score here ??????????????

It's not Nintendo... it is YouTube. And in particular, their javascript code to check the level of Flash player plug-in on the browser. If you view embedded videos from other webpages, they play fine.

The question is whether or not YouTube deliberately modified the code to prevent 100,000's of Wiis from viewing their content.

Youtube totally worked yesterday..

It really seems like someone said, that youtube modified their site just to mess with wii's,, but why?

 

[ferdiepogi]

yup same problem here.

 

[wiiCrazy]

Youtube working fine now wtf?

X number of people with the Wii on the internet. I will assume that 99% of X would have checked youtube straight away. It was almost a slashdot scale event for youtube I would guess. They probably reacted by blocking the Wii Opera browser until they could assess the situation.
No doubt it'll all be working fine again for good.

Yeah, I get that same Javascript/Flash error too. Bunk!
