Rumor: Pokemon Company possesses DS 2, has motion-sensing technology

“It’s genuinely the best thing I think I’ve ever worked with. I can tell you that it’s got a ’tilt’ function that’s not dissimilar to iPhone, but does a lot more. We know that The Pokemon Company are getting special attention with it. Any kind of March announcement wouldn’t fit with the timeline I understand the second DS to be on.” – CVG insider
Apparently, a number of studios have the DS 2 (like we reported yesterday), but the current dev kit sent out is only a prototype of the final product. Nintendo is looking for feedback about the device, but it doesn’t look like the company plans on announcing anything next month, let alone next week.

Rumor: DS 2 dev kits sent out by Nintendo, may launch this year
Posted on 15 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in DS, Rumors | 19 Comments
There have been a bunch of rumors lately surrounding new Nintendo hardware over the past few weeks. One employee from a major publisher even went as far as to say that Nintendo might unveil a new platform at the Game Developer’s Conference, which will be taking place in just a few weeks.
Now rumor has it that Nintendo has started sending development kits for their next DS system. These kits have, apparently, been received by numerous studios already. Additionally, if further speculation is to be believed, the company may start selling the hardware before the end of 2010. Nintendo declined to comment about the latest batch of rumors, but perhaps the DS 2 will be officially announced at GDC or E3 if the company intends to release the system this year.
