Nintendo TVii, the feature that could transform the Wii U into a full-fledged entertainment box in the living room, is coming to the console tomorrow.
Nintendo announced today that TVii will be made available to the U.S. and Canada tomorrow. The feature allows Wii U owners to access all of the programming in their home-entertainment setup, including from their cable or satellite companies, and decide from the Wii U's GamePad what they want to watch. In addition, the GamePad can double as a remote, allowing users to control volume and change channels, among other features.
TVii was announced earlier this year as part of Nintendo's desire to turn the Wii U into more than just a gaming console. However, when the hardware launched last month, TVii was conspicuously missing. Nintendo would only say at that time that TVii would be launching in December.
