Is this really where Nintendo is heading? If so, the Wii may be in for a new type of casual experience. A Nintendo patent was discovered today and seems to center around one thing: education with Mario and friends with the Wii. The patent harps on titles for a younger audience – toddlers, pre-kindergartners, and those with disabilities. Software would be designed around focusing on number recognition, color identification, reading/writing, and sound recognition. Concepts for games include animal matching, number matching, letter matching, mazes, memory challenges, and more.
