Perhaps the most interesting Fun Center is the Nintendo Wii version. It was released on June 25, 2008. actually runs on development Wii hardware. You load games onto it and they are displayed in a coverflow GUI, which is comparable to ones found in USB Loaders for modded Wiis, especially WiiFlow. In order to get games loaded on it, you have to call Nintendo's Fun Center hotline and use a download manager to download them.
