The service, which will launch in Japan in 2009, will include ad-supported free videos as well as pay-per-view material priced between 100 and 400 Wii points.
"Nintendo and Dentsu shall use the environment surrounding the Wii so that living rooms with Wii-ready TVs would become more of a fun area for communication among families and friends," read a joint statement.
The initiative is expected to go live in Japan next year, with a Western launch to follow.
