Nintendo’s new NERD division, founded from the basis of Mobiclip, will act as more of a technology investigator. Whereas the teams at Nintendo’s headquarters need to be focus on creating software, NERD plans to look into aspects such as GPGPU powered cloud computing.

NERD CTO Alexandre Delattre said during the most-recent Nintendo Direct:

“The developers at Nintendo headquarters need to spend their time developing the actual platform, so I think we’d like to explore areas that they don’t have time for. For example the possibilities which are opened up by the combination of cloud technologies and new software paradigms like general purpose GPU programming.”

One interesting point: NERD has been hiring researchers in the field of cloud technology, heterogenous computing, and GPGPU development.

KORG M01D is seeing a slight delay in Japan. Originally scheduled for launch this month, the title will now hit the 3DS eShop in June.

Detune did not provide any reasons for the release date change.

KORG M01D was originally scheduled to arrive on the overseas 3DS eShops this summer. Hopefully the Japanese delay won’t have any major affects on the game’s western release.
