PlayOn video streaming service hits the Wii screenshot

This generation of gaming consoles has welcomed in video/movie entertainment in full force. Unfortunately, Nintendo’s Wii, despite having the largest install base, does not have much in the way of non-gaming entertainment options. That changes with the introduction of PlayOn, a video streaming application.

The service has already worked fine for users of the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, but this day Wii joins the celebration this week. Services like Netflix, Amazon, YouTube and Hulu are piped through a Computer into the console by way of a $40 piece of software. New York Times states that a beta service launches tomorrow. There will be a 14-day trial for you to check it out.

If you’d like to sign up for the beta, head here. Let us know how it goes.
