The final version of the Opera browser for the Wii Internet Channel is but weeks away. Nintendo gathered their development team who worked with Opera Software for a chat about the improvements over the current trial version. Lots of tasty morsels of information were unearthed, such as an auto-hide toolbar, faster startup, and a vastly improved zoom feature. The programmers said that browsing the internet on the Wii is a social experience, so the final version supports multiple cursors (though only Player 1 can actually click anything).

Here are a few other small improvements to make our Wii browsing a little better:

• Favorites page immediately accessible
• Improved website compatibility
• New and better scroll interface
• Search button on the toolbar
• URL text (www and com) easily accessible
