WiiWare demos will once again be available to download from the Wii Shop Channel, Nintendo's announced.

Every WiiWare demo featured on the Wii Shop Channel will be available for a limited time only, and the line-up will be constantly refreshed – there's a dedicated list on wiiware.Nintendo.co.uk as well as on the Wii Shop Channel itself.
