Question: Its more of a question of technology than as a game fan, but according to what the announcement said, that DS will also support a wireless LAN standard (IEEE802.11), you could say it can be used to connect to the net as well.
Miyamoto: That's right. Well, for Nintendo, we're definitely thinking about the subject of connecting DSes, but if something that interacted with an OS or application came out, because it can also connect to your home's wireless LAN, there's also the possibility of using it as an internet computer terminal.
Question: If some maker wanted to use the DS to connect to the internet, the machine's specs would be enough to handle it.
Miyamoto: Technologically, its a possibility. But, well, as Nintendo has said until now, "if you don't use that, you can't do this," "unless you have this one of these, then it's a no-go," that type of thing, as much as possible, we don't want to do. As much as we can, we want to do it so you can have fun, if you just buy the machine and that's all you need to have a new play experience. And in that way, we had many more ideas that crammed in more functions, but after all, we were coming from a feeling of wanting to sell it at, "A suitable price for playing." It settled down to the types of things we announced.
