Over the last few weeks, I've been working on a new feature for the site, which will send a message to Nintendo Wii Consoles whenever a new Virtual Console game is added. In order to receive these notifications, you must register your Wii on the new Subscriptions Page. For those of you without Wiis, you can use this same page to sign up to receive updates via email.
Before you sign up your Wii, you first must set the notification system up as a contact, so messages will get through to you. You can do this by
- Turn your Wii on and go to the message board
- Go to Create New Message
- Go to Address Book
- Find a empty space in your Address Book and click on it
- Select Other
- Add own@wiirate.co.uk as the email address, WiiRate as the nickname and attach a Mii if you wish.
- There should now be a contact called WiiRate in the empty space you clicked earlier
Once that's done, you can sign your Wii up to the updates (You must have an account and be logged in to do this)
- Go to the Subscriptions Page
- In the Wii section on the right hand side, enter your Wii code.
- Press submit.
Your Wii will then be sent a confirmation message, with a link to click on in order to complete your subscription. Once you follow that, you will start receiving news of the latest Virtual Console updates on your Wii.
