Wiiware games are new games made especially for the Wii, and are only available from the Wii Shop.

If you've owned a Nintendo console before, and you're dying to play some of those old classic games, there's a good chance you can buy them as Wii Virtual Console games in the Shop. These games have been remade to work on the Wii.

Wii Virtual Console games are games from previous Nintendo consoles like the Nintendo 64 and the GameCube.

The Wii Shop is organised into three categories, which makes it really easy to find the items you're looking for. To use the Wii Shop, go to the Wii Menu and choose the Wii Shop Channel to enter the store… If you still need to set up your Wii internet connection, click here for step-by-step instructions on how to connect your Wii to the internet. To use the Wii Shop you need to be connected to the internet and the WiiConnect24 service. The Wii Shop is part of the main Wii Menu so you can access it straight from your Wii console. All Wii Shop items are downloaded directly to your console, so it's quick and you don't need to wait for delivery in the post. The Wii Shop Channel is the official shop for buying downloadable games and software for your Wii console.
