      1. People ask for Youtube, they get Hulu+. I’d say that’s a pretty fair share. Sure, Youtube has billions of online videos, but Hulu’s got hundreds of thousands of full-lengthed TV shows and movies that you can’t watch on Youtube. I’ll be getting this.

    1. What don’t you like about the layout? I think its great! I don’t get what every always complains about ¬_¬

  1. SWAPNOTE…. it took a while but finaly a message service to the 3ds at least it is complete with voice and pictures, o/ besides am i the only who think in 3d home made porn dasudha with the video recording? hahahaa

  3. The only two things I care about are Hulu and 3D Video Recording. Now I can watch the A-Team episodes on the go, lol.

  4. Yes Finally HULU on the wii and 3DS. I just hope it supports CAPTIONS for the deaf, hard hearing, or people that love having CC on.

    1. Normal Hulu isn’t usually accessible outside the US for legal reasons (and probably largely due to setting up the adverts). I doubt that this will be available for UK residents anyway.

      Hey, I wonder if this does mean that we might eventually get a 3DS version of the iPlayer (without 3D). Could be cool.

  5. I didn’t care about Netflix because their selection is rather poor, especially for anime. Now Hulu is a different deal. Funimation put their dubs on Hulu, so I’m in. I liked everything in here except for the new music videos and the short films that you have to pay for. Those suck as, especially that blue man video.
