Four of the biggest manga publishers in Japan have announced a partnership to offer their manga titles via the Nintendo Wii Ware channel. Sadly, this seems like it’s only happening in Japan.
Kadokawa, Kodansha, Shueisha and Shogakukan formed a partnership with a local software devoloper to develop a platform for the manga. Initially, they hope to develope a presence on the Wii, but look towards branching out to bring manga to the Nintendo DS and other consoles.
The deal is still early, and not much else is known.

I’d love to see the American distributors (main Viz though) get together for something like this. I’d subscribe for sure!
Yeah too bad its only in Japan. America might see it in the future though.
This sounds like a great way to study Japanese … in Japan.
