'''WiiConnect24''' | '''WiiConnect24''' is a feature of the [[Wii]] console first announced at E3 [[2006]] by [[Nintendo]]. It enables the user to remain connected to the Internet while the console is on standby. For example, a friend can visit another player's Wii town and leave messages in [[Animal Crossing: City Folk]] without the other player being present. WiiConnect24 is sometimes confused with [[Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection]], which is used to provide online gameplay over Nintendo's servers. Online gameplay games for the Wii can use both the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection service and WiiConnect24. | ||
