Recent Nintendo patent – Images

I only include the images that actually made sense and didn’t just have a bunch of technical mumbo jumbo in them. You can check out all the images here if you’re one of those “intellectual” types. 😛
Enjoy!
Nintendo patent reveals some very interesting tidbits (possibly) pertaining to Café
Posted on 14 years ago by Austin(@NE_Austin) in News, Wii U | 0 comments
If you’re a patient reader, check out the full PDF here. If you’d rather just get the bulletpoints, here’s what I gather from it:
– ‘Parent’ device and ‘Child’ devices
 – ‘Child’ device connects to ‘Parent’ devices to stream data/games
 – ‘Child’ device can communicate with multiple ‘Parent’ devices, receive identification date
 – A sort of “GBA+Gamecube” without the cords
 – ‘Child’ device houses game cartridge, can be detached from ‘Parent’ device
 – ‘Child’ device can send requests to ‘Parent’ devices for data transfers
 – Multiple ‘Child’ devices meant to be used at the same time in constant communication
 – Has a sort of ‘Download Play’ option
 – Uses Bluetooth for communication
 – Mario Kart and F-Zero are mentioned multiple times throughout the patent
 – Uses very confusing language, such as ‘thereby’, ‘wherein’, etc (ie, ‘patent speak’ that makes it real hard to read)
Okay, maybe I sort of just added that last one for kicks. The point here is that we’ve essentially confirmed a lot of the speculation that a 3DS-like device would be used to control Café, and can break off from being just a controller to play games on its own. Note that I got kind of bored reading all of that confusing patent-speak, so if you go through and read it yourself, post any info I missed here!
Of course, take all patents with a grain of salt- just because Nintendo patented it, doesn’t mean it’ll for sure happen! We’ll find out all the details at E3…

Nintendo’s reason for moving on from Wii and creating Project Cafe
Posted on 14 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii, Wii U | 0 comments
This information comes from Satoru Iwata…
“It became difficult for developers to surprise customers with the current Wii.”
Surprises have always been a big deal for Nintendo. This makes me wonder what surprises they have in store for Project Cafe.
