In an interview with Cubed3.com, Opera Vice President Scott Hendrick has confirmed that the Opera browser will be available on their next-gen console from day one. Hendrick also confirmed that Opera will be integrated into Wii, and that there are no plans to include advertising within the user interface.

"The Opera browser is saved to the Flash ROM on the Wii console, and does not require a separate memory card as Opera for DS does. The browser can be launched in only a few seconds, immediately delivering a great user experience,” said Hendrick.

“For Opera desktop users, surfing on the Wii will be a very familiar experience. Opera will be integrating its unique rendering technologies to compensate for the lower resolution of TVs and the added distance of the user from the TV screen [...] For example, fonts will be larger and the user interface will be simplified so that the Web is easier to view and use from a distance while navigating with the Wii remote.
