Netflix on the Wii? Netflix and Nintendo are staying mum.
Rumors surfaced on Wednesday that the DVD rental service is preparing to offer its streaming movie service via Nintendo’s Wii. It makes sense–Netflix already has streaming deals with the Microsoft Xbox and, more recently, the Sony PlayStation–but at this point, there is no official news to report.
“Certainly the Wii represents a great opportunity given the size of its installed base, but we’re not commenting on rumors or speculation,” a Netflix spokesman said in an e-mail. “The Xbox partnership has been terrific for Netflix members and we’re equally excited to announce the partnership with PS3.”
A Nintendo spokesman said the company does not respond to rumors or speculation.
