BroadOn (formerly known as RouteFree and later known as iGware) was a company that helped Nintendo with network services, the Wii\'s IOS, and more. The company merged with Acer Cloud Computing in 2011. It was founded by a Chinese-American person named Wei Yen.
Not much is known about the company, but this company is where a lot of development for Nintendo's consoles took place. We have gathered data from their employees' Linkedin profiles. Their office was originally in Palo Alto, California (which is now used as the offices for Nest, a company that makes thermostats, smoke detectors, etc.) and then moved to Mountain View, California (which is now used for a school owned by Khan Academy called Khan Lab School).
