Wii Phone |
A Wii Phone from Nintendo? C’mon; this seems a little far fetched, or is it? Recently we’ve seen the iPhone, rumors of a Zune Phone and now this.
According to T3 there is a distinct possibility that Nintendo may be coming out with some type of phone combined with the console remote. There had been some rumors last year about adding a microphone to the controller, and Nintendo has been taking advantage of internet based services with the Wii console, lately. This combination could possibly lend itself nicely to some type of VoIP service.
T3 found this information via the patent office showing plans of a Wii remote looking device with gaming keys and what looks like a dialing keypad. I wonder what kind of damage someone could do with this? We’ll keep watching…

so… where’s the mouthpiece?
kool idea. needs work and slimming down. maybe someday. i like it, being a nintendo fan myself lol, but like b4, just needs slimming down.
looks really nice
Photoshop?
I actually happened to be scrolling through Nintendo patents on Google Patents and saw some phone stuff… didn’t pay much notice. I think it might be a bit lame myself. Honestly, a nintendo phone?
On second thought, couldn’t they just use already existing hardware? It seems to me that the DS could make a fine VoIP phone, given the WiFi, microphone and speakers.. not to mention putting a keypad on the touch screen (I’m only speculating, as I’ve never used a VoIP phone…). Seems like a more economical solution, at least for those of us with DS’s. Just buy a cart for the software and talk away…
See thats where most brands go wrong, you simply can not expect an expert doctor to cook an amazing curry
u know what i mean
if the numbers came out from the back like i slider phone it would be really nice
or jsut pu the numbers on the back other wise its too long
so fake, but i’de love it, i’de buy it but thats crazy old me!hmm what could it be called? wiiring? wiicall? wiiphone sounds too boring for nintendo, wiimobile/wiicell lol wiicell many products
Sum 1 Photoshopped the hell outta a pic of a wii controller…nice try bu8t i did actually see sumthing about a nintendo phone in Game informer…maybe its true….
That photoshopped controller isn’t far off actually, remove the LEDs and the - + and home buttons. add one big button in place of those, and a mouthpiece instead of the LEDs and that’s about what Nintendo have drawn. From what I can see I would guess this is probably just another one of the ideas Nintendo is exploring. It could possibly be that they will release it as a handheld games console/ mobile phone. There is definitely a registered patent with Satoru Okada (general manager of Nintendo Research & Engineering, the division designing and developing Nintendo handheld game consoles) as one of the inventors.

i am a fan of nintendo but if you go far enough to make a phone something is wrong. nintendo a cell phones just don’t go together.
the wiiphone sounds really cool, but its shape ans size is just a little bit uncool. the iphone is the bezt thing i have evrn seen, lets see if the wii phone can top that!!!
i’ma get one when they come out though!
Wii Phone would be cool, but if thats Mario world, it would also need buttons R and L, so I dont know if its real or not
Shat thats awsome man i love it and all can it be used as a wii controller hu what um who….. ahhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
DUDE IT HAS THE BUTTON ON THE BCK
I think its just a random image the editor looked for , just to add tot he article. If nintendo is doing this, then it prolly wont look like this. But, who knows?
WOW i am really excited! when is out and how much is it?
lol!!!
Seems like it would be really hard to secretly text during class with it! Not that I do…*shifts eyes*
i bet the mouth piece will be the player lights at bottom, if it is slimmer i would get 1
Lol slimmer….
that’s lame…
I’d buy it even if it wasn’t for on the go
I don’t even care if its slim.
and by looking at that photo it does not look like its for texting.
Kinda makes me think about skype on the psp…
