It was announced a few months ago that the Wii would soon be receiving a video service from the big N. Now Nintendo President Satoru Iwata has expressed possible interest in extending the service to the DS and has reaffirmed that it may arrive in overseas territories.

“If the Wii and the DS are connected, it should be possible to download video through the Wii and take it with you on the DS…When the service begins, you’ll see how we’re going to do it differently in a Nintendo-like way. There are a lot of on-demand video services, so there’s no reason to do the same thing, so we’re going to do something different. We’ll start the service in Japan, and if it does well, we’d like to take it overseas. [Nintendo wants to make the Wii] something that people will turn on even if they don’t have a purpose in mind. We’re not there yet though, and there are a lot of things we have to do to achieve that.”

NEW YORK, NY, April 7, 2009 -Vogster Entertainment, an international developer and publisher of interactive entertainment, today announced a new addition to its critically acclaimed, robot warfare-themed Robocalypse™ franchise with Robocalypse – Beaver Defense. The new game is a “tower defense” style action title planned as a WiiWare™ download for Europe and North American customers in summer 2009.

“We are excited to deliver Robocalypse – Beaver Defense as a convenient and accessible WiiWare download,” said Alan Martin, Producer at Vogster Entertainment. “Written by Jay Lender (SpongeBob Squarepants™) and Micah Wright, the story is hilarious and offers a fitting back drop for this fast-paced, tongue-in-cheek game where the player must thwart the plans of a maniacal beaver.”
