Wii and DS Controls Receive Emmy Award
The National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences has honored Nintendo with an Emmy Award for excellence in engineering creativity for its innovative Wii control and the DS touchscreen and dual screen display.
Nintendo is also planning to role out two new innovative controls in 2008. A anticipated Mario Kart racing game for Wii will be packaged with a wireless Wii Wheel, while the Wii Fit will keep players more active than ever with the creative Wii Balance Board.
“The pioneering interfaces for Wii and Nintendo DS reflect our long tradition of seeking new ways to enhance the gaming experience for users at every level,” said Don James, Nintendo of America’s executive vice president of operations. “We’re grateful for this award and thank the academy for honoring us a second time.”
