TV no Tomo Channel

Guide data was retrieved from the G-Guide service, allowing users to check up to a week ahead of television programming, as well as detailed information for each programme, such as a description, a list of the cast, aspect ratio and support for subtitles.

Users could also register their mobile phone number or email address on the channel, allowing them to receive a notification 30 minutes before programmes they had stamped were broadcast.

[5] A unique feature the channel also included allowed users to control their television set through the Wii Remote.

This feature was not fully supported by all television sets, being only compatible with those belonging to Sony, Panasonic, Sanyo, Sharp, Fujitsu, Toshiba, NEC, Pioneer, Hitachi, Funai, JVC, Mitsubishi and Aiwa.

[5] The feature was originally intended to be available from the Wii's system settings, as seen from leftover data, but it was not implemented in the end, making this channel the only software to ever use it.
