@Croft, you would be correct in assuming v9 instead of v8, because as far as I know v8 is not really even supported anymore since the official release of v9. Can’t wait to see what this does for the web since some sites will be checking twice to see that their pages work flawlessly with Opera from now on, haha.

From the press release “The Opera browser for Wii is based on the same standards compliant core as Opera 9″

I was just about to say that even though I have no way of checking, as James apparently does, Opera 8 did not handle Acid2 properly but 9 did, so it would stand to reason that Wii has 9 in it. But there you have confirmation.

Opera on the Wii reports itself as: opera/9.00 (nintendo wii; u; ; 1309-9; en)
