Everybody Vote Channel

The Everybody Vote Channel was launched on Wednesday 14th February. And this Channel came out of the blue. Noboyd had taked about it. But it came and it's free.

This could be a usefull Channel if Nintendo use it right. But now, it's only fun. The way it works is easy. You have a question and to alternatives. When you have done that, you can predict how the outcome will be. In other words how the final results will look like. This is the polls that was available on the launch day:

How do you prefer your eggs? (Boiled/Fried)
Which do you prefer? (Eating/Sleeping)
You have some free time. What do you do? (Go out and party/Stay home and relex)
Do you prefer dogs or cats? (Dogs/Cats) (Worldwide polls)

There is two types of polls, national and international. The international runs for about 2 weeks, while the national is a week. But you have more national polls, so you get a new question every 2 or 3 days.

You can assign up to 6 Mii's to the Vote Channel. So you can have a competition with the rest of your family. You see, that when a poll is over the you get the results, you get points accourding to how you predicted the outcome and what you voted for. You can see how you voted compared to all the others.

The last thing you can do, is to sugest a question&answers for a poll and sumbit it to Nintendo. And if you lucky, your question will be a poll someday.

I hope Nintendo will use this Channel to let us players decide what cames to come next on Virtual Console or what characters we want in a game or ....
