Netflix app on Nintendo 3DS but not on PB?

I noticed there is a Netflix app for Nintendo 3DS but not for Playbook? Really I could not understand Netflix's logic here...

Not really shocking...Nintendo sold more 3DS to customers in a month than Blackberry sold Playbooks in 6 months.

No one is shocked but the OP, but regardless, you're comparing berries and oranges, different platforms and a large longstanding customer/user base. Moot point anyway, Netflix posts are getting tiresome and this thread will probably be closed.

There is thousands of DS owners in my city and I'm probably 1 of 3 owners of a playbook so yeah I'm not surprised the DS got it before us. Do I care?? Hello no, I'm gonna take my netflix missing playbook and watch Spain vs Italy right now on ESPN3.com.

+1. I have the Netflix app on my iPhone and Xbox anyways, I'm not that desperate for the app. Gee I don't remember the last time I used my computer for anything other than updating and syncing my iPhone. Perfect PC replacement IMO.

Nintendo have it on their Wii's, they even have Hulu Plus now. So they have the right to put it on their every capable platform?

So I guess Netflix didn't want to expand to BlackBerry?

I know this has been beaten to death, but I still want it. Not going to carry on about it though. That is all.

The logic is that you are talking about SD version of netflix --- which Hollywood studios don't care about security wise. It is a whole different ball game if you want to stream HD content.
