A new games channel for the Wii?

I just ran across this article and wanted to post it for everyone in the garage. John Lee, Hudson Entertainment's director of marketing, recently said in an interview that there may be a new Games channel for the Wii that is tailored to downloading new game content, basically like the Xbox Live Arcade. I know Microsoft has been really good to the GG community but if this is true it's pretty exciting stuff!

Here is the quote.

Lee is asked point-blank about whether Hudson might be considering developing a new Bonk game for release over the Wii's VC. Here's the response, verbatim:

"Well, the VC was specifically designed to bring back classic games, not to introduce new content. So to answer your question specifically: No. However, in the future, you should rephrase that question to: Are there any plans to launch original content on some downloadable service on the Wii, and you might get a different answer."

Anyway, this isn't much of a blog post but it would be pretty awesome to use some of the Wiimote hacks floating around here to make a downloadable game for the Wii.
