Nintendo news round-up: Netflix disc rendered useless, new Club Nintendo rewards and more
– The Wii Netflix instant streaming disc’s functionality is being given a traditional burial and will be shot into the sun on February 16th.

In any case, Kotaku launched a redesign yesterday. From a usability perspective, it’s horrible. Like a return to frames.
