The Wii supports WiFi connectivity with the Nintendo
DS without any additional accessories. The connectivity allows the
player to use the Nintendo DS microphone and touchscreen as inputs for
Wii games. The first example Nintendo has given of a game using Nintendo
DS-Wii connectivity is Pokemon Battle Revolution. Players with either
Pokemon Diamond or Pearl are able to play battles using their Nintendo
DS as the controller. OK - getting off track, this doesn't connect to WII, but this is cool. Here we see that a DS can be turned into an IPOD. The Nintendo DS, really good device for those with imagination. It has also been announced that the Nintendo DS will be able to play game demos downloaded from the console, which they would receive from Nintendo, similar to a DS Download Station. The console is also able to expand Nintendo DS games. |
