Amazon’s LoveFilm brings Watchlist feature to its Nintendo Wii app in the UK


Amazon’s LoveFilm brings Watchlist feature to its Nintendo Wii app in the UK

Amazon’s LoveFilm has announced the new version of its streaming app for connected devices is arriving for Nintendo Wii users in the UK today.

The arrival brings a host of new updates and features – including an improved search function, recommendation engine, and user interface, as well as the Watchlist feature which is already available on other platforms.

Indeed, today’s update mirrors what was rolled out to the Web-based version of the app last year, when LoveFilm announced it was getting a search makeover, before adding the Watchlist feature similar to what already exists on Netflix. This update was also added for PS3 users in May.

The new LoveFilm streaming app is available to download from the Wii Shop Channel from today.
