Opera ’s latest press release states that their browser will be used in Nintendo’s Wii console. During the Nintendo press conference yesterday, Reggie Fils-Aime briefly mentioned the browser, but nothing was shown. Opera is already announced for the DS.

“Nintendo is clearly visionary in leading the gaming industry into the new era in gaming, and a wonderful partner for Opera,” says Jon von Tetzchner, CEO, Opera Software. “We are thrilled to expand our partnership with Nintendo, and work with them to deliver the best gaming experience on the Wii console and the Nintendo DSâ„¢.”

Users of the Wii console will browse the Internet using their consoles. Navigating via the innovative new Wii Remote controller, users can visit Web sites in between gaming sessions.
