Does the “virtual console” effort represent Nintendos entire online strategy?
No. More will be described soon. We will use the Wi-Fi component in a different way for each game, just like with the DS. Though the new console won’t include a high-definition disc player, how does the impending format war between Sony and Microsoft affect Nintendo? For us, it’s all about the experience, not if the technology allows you to play your game on the high-definition formats, which are now in such a small percentage of homes. Many independent sources tell us that experiencing current high-def games on a regular TV makes it near impossible to see everything clearly. That means the majority of homes are experiencing something lesser than what they bargained for.
