Wii to DS Connectivity Revealed
According to N-Sider, the newest issue of Famitsu has some details from Nintendo President Satoru Iwata about Wii to DS connectivity, and talks about the first title that will use those features as well. Iwata explained the ways in which Wii and Nintendo DS will communicate with each other. In addition to DS demos provided over WiiConnect24, DS will work with Wii similarly to how Game Boy Advance worked with Nintendo GameCube — as “extra controllers” for specifically-designed games.
The Nintendo DS will be able to be used with these games as a touch screen controller, as well as DS games having their playfield expanded on the TV screen via the Wii (think Four Swords Adventures here). Iwata explained the extra modes of play are to make DS owners happy. Pokemon Battle Revolution will be the first game to use the connectivity for Wii which will be like the Pokemon Stadium and Colosseum games in that it will allow Pok?n to be transferred between the handheld game (Pokemon Diamond and Pearl) and the console game for on-screen battles.
