Later in the day on Monday, Nintendo will make your holiday shopping just a little bit easier. If some people on your gift list have visions of classic video games dancing in their heads, you're in luck. Starting this week, Wii Shop Channel patrons can use a new Gifting feature to send games to other Wii owners with whom they've traded Friend Codes. It's an easy and inexpensive way to give your fellow Nintendo buffs the gift of a classic game—no wrapping paper required. And don't worry about duplication. If your friend already has the game you're trying to give, you'll get a simple message and be bumped back into the catalog to continue shopping.

This feature should kick in about...a few hours as I type this.

Okay it's finished and ready, here's the results

1. How can I get the update patch needed that the Wii Shop channel tells me of?
A). Go to "Wii Settings" then hit "+" on the remote to the far right options and pick "Wii System Update"

2. Can I give a game I already have, to someone?
A) NO. You must re-purchase this game as a gift to send to someone

3. How many times can I purchase a game?
A) As many as the amount of friends you have! So Infinite

4. Is this game going to leave my system if I delete it?
A) NO! This game is FOREVER yours, if you delete it from your Wii Channels, you can re-download it AGAIN at no extra cost!

5. I can't find my game, where is it?
A) Check your messages! The game will be in an "Animal Crossing" style package attached to your message that someone sent you!
