Starting today, we will be reaching out to readers in a brand new way! Introducing the Vooks Wii Mailing List, messages delivered directly to your Wii Message Board from our own very humble site.
We are proud to bring you the beginning of what will hopefully be a continual roll out of Vooks to Wii integration. Sign up to the mailing list and have fun with not just the message board, but the other channels to. To sign up, go to your Wii Address Book and register us. Choose 'Others' (the picture with the computer and phone) after clicking Register and enter our email address:  That's it! You are now on our list. We will not reply, but the registration will be completed with our reply the next time we send out a mass email. So please be patient if our address stays grey for a while. Why should you sign up? Well we have a number of things planned: - Major site news - Announcing competitions - Announcing competition winners - Notifying you of Vooks Wi-Fi events - Letting you know about noteworthy upcoming games - Announcing new content for games - Holiday cards/virtual post cards - Revealing Wii secrets The mailing list will also be used to host its own events and competitions. Things like colouring in competitions, chain-pictures (where you draw a line or so, send it on to the next person), word puzzles, spot the differences, Mii look-alikes and any other cool ideas our members give to us. Support us in this and who knows what other crazy features we will use this to build upon. |

Ive been thinking BIG, real big. So big Vook has told me to keep it a little more real. Thats why I only alluded to additional stuff. That way no one is obligated to do anything!  Were sticking just with the mailing list for the time being. |

How can you email your Wii, i know its possible. But i don't think it works at the moment. Because i registered my email on the Wii, and never got the confirmation email from Nintendo. I don't believe its my Spam Filters.

I am so in. My blue lights on and it has been for a long time, does that mean it's still connected and doing stuff or just connected but finished with the stuff?

Well what's the character limit? Just divide the super dupa long messages into small sections. I don't suppose you can use HTML when sending emails to Wii, can you?
