Iwata did mention it.
They said they're still working on it, and he said he was sorry for the delay.

Where in the post did they even say that? (Hint: they didn't) They just asked when the TV app is coming. Why do people just assume things like this?

My brother uses his PS3 as the family all-in-one TV box. He has no cable, but rather uses the built-in Netflix and Hulu for TV programs and internet for the news. It's not bad to put features like this in, goodness. It attracts different types of customers - Why are you so against it?

YES YES! exactly what I wanted to say. And why not? the launch games are pretty boring.

Why did you pretty much copy my post in the thread below this one and add some of your own text?

"I wish they'd hurry up with these media players. I dont care if they implement them into TVii or not but we need:

iPlayer
Sky Go
4OD
STV/ITV Player

And we need them soon. Netflix and LoveFilm just arent enough."

Just mentioning it because I find it really weird.

Speak for your self when you say things like that. You may think this service is important enough that without it its not worth owning a Wii U but not everyone does. What make you think most other people will get bored and sell their consoles. That's just plain silly. As for shooting themselves in the foot that's hardly the case and a very premature statement. Not to mention the 3DS has certainly not failed and is actually doing very well. As for the last comment you made it makes you sound like a spoilt brat. I suggest you get over it. Whilst these apps and services are nice the primary function and use of a games console is playing games.

the wii u is very good but people do get bored very easily my local shop cex who buy and sell consoles and games had 25 wii u that people had sold or traded in in the first two weeks of launch and thats just one shop out of hundreads in the uk.
dont get me wrong i love the wii u but just wish things were not put on there if they dont work i have a 3ds a ps3 and a wii u i did have a ps vita but did not think much to it.
i guess i am like most i want things straight away hate waiting i no the wii u will be great in time

Again Nintendo cannot provide what they promised from day 1. They have failed to deliver a lot of there promises recently. Disappointed to be honest.
