Nintendo plays the “i” card
October 2nd, 2008Not content with the immense popularity that the DS has built up over the years, Nintendo has now seen fit to introduce the DSi, a third iteration of the darling handheld console, but now with even more doo-dads and gizmos to make gamers drool.
I can’t help but wonder if the emergence of the iPhone/iPod touch as a possible rival is starting to have an effect, given the improvements added to the DSi. As Joystiq discovered, the iPod touch has some advantages over the DS (including the new DSi) and Sony’s PSP, on paper at least, but we all know specs are not what make a successful platform. Now if only Apple could get people to buy games…
