Does Nintendo Wii Have Netflix Capability?

Netflix's on-demand video streams provide more than one billion hours of digital content to more than 36 million members in 40 countries. In addition to televisions, computers and smartphones, popular gaming consoles like the Nintendo Wii also support the streaming service. Netflix is not factory installed by Nintendo, nor is it accessed using the Wii's Web browser as you would on a computer. In order to view Netflix content on the Nintendo Wii, users must download the free Netflix app from Nintendo's Wii Shop.
