Wii no Ma was originally a joint venture between Nintendo in co-operation with Dentsu which provide a video-on-demand service channel featuring programs and advertisements. The Wii no Ma Channel was viewable by those with a Wii and an Internet connection and it features family-oriented content, such as cartoons, brain-training quizzes, cookery, educational shows, and other programs produced for Nintendo exclusively. Broadcast began in Japan on May 1, 2009, and an international expansion is being considered.[2] In 2010 several trademarks were filed for the name.[3]
Nintendo ceased operation of the Wii no Ma Channel on April 30, 2012,[4] renaming the company Nintendo Network Service Database.
