How to Send Messages on the Wii

Nintendo Wii users have access to many online features, including messaging. Email messages can be both composed and read from the message board. To message anyone on Wii, they must be registered as your friend or listed in your Wii contacts. Messages from the Wii Message Board can be sent to other Wii console users or to a regular email address that is accessible by computer or mobile phone.
