Big announcement went out a few weeks ago that Opera for the Wii was
coming with native Flash support. They tiptoed around the issue of
version numbers in the original press release, but if you look at
previous/other news, Opera has a distributor license for the Flash 7 SDK.

So... that's the most probable answer.

My full mumblings on the subject:
  http://ammonlauritzen.com/blog/2006/09/26/wii_for_flash/
(disclaimer - site is probably only 5% flash/flex related :P)

I haven't heard anything new since then, so I'm assuming nothing's changed.

Re: [Flashcoders] [OT] Flash player on the PS3?

2006-11-13 Thread Mark Winterhalder

So, has the PS3's browser the Flash player by default? Which version?
Keeping in mind that is running Linux*, is it version 7? I've tried to
find information in their website* but no luck at all.


That's what I thought when I read the article, too.
My guess is that it's 7. There is no FP9 for PPC Linux yet, AFAIK.

But Sony will sell the PS3 for several years. FP9 is so much more
powerful that I'm sure it will be adopted widely, and fast. Imagine,
in two years, somebody with a PS3 can't access the websites of the
latest games... They won't let that happen.

The PS3 can be updated over the net. If it's not FP9, they will make
it so as soon as they can.

Good news about the Wii!

There is no FP9 for PPC Linux yet

PPC? As far as I know* Pocket PC is Microsoft exclusive. What I would
expect in the future is player 9 (Linux version), but it will probably
need to get out of beta first.

Pretty sure it's 7. However, it should be noted that despite all the power of 
the cell, Flash on the PS3 isn't all that speedy.
http://www.joystiq.com/2006/11/11/playing-nintendos-donkey-kong-on-sonys-ps3/

As they point out, it's good for FLVs, but interactive games? Not so much. 


 Does anyone know if Wii or XBox have it as well?

The XBox 360 has no browser and Microsoft has made no mention or interest at 
one coming. While it can't be ruled out, I wouldn't hold your breath. HOWEVER, 
if you look closely, you might notice that the bundled arcade game Hexic is 
actually powered by Macromedia Flash -- so while there might not be a Flash 
player within the 360, it has, clearly, already been ported. It's just not as 
accessible to us normal guys as it is through a simple browser.
