Yikes.

I’m still taking the response with a pinch of salt. After all, unless Wii stops you from browsing the web altogether, it is just a matter of time before developers start posting queries to either Opera or Nintendo about it’s browser support. I’m guessing the engineer’s stance had more to do with installed browser applications.

A few other implications:

  • Does this mean Opera widgets won’t be supported?
  • Will AJAX be supported?

More details will be posted as they are made available.
