Amazing how Nintendo always considered everything previously. Probably even the wheel when it was invented millenia ago :D

Nintendo said at the end of the last generation that they spend about 250-mill a year on developing new hardware. With all that R&D I can guarantee they've looked at every logical peice of technology and probably a shit load of tech we wouldn't even think of (Example Kinect, nobody would have figured that the camera technology existed). Or the Wiimote and its complex out of the box idealogies.

Fact is with all that money Nintendo does spend an awful lot looking into almost every idea possible. Not to mention their are probably corporate spies letting them know what their competition is looking at, thus causing them to also look at such technology.

Yeah but everyone does this, including companies many times bigger than Nintendo. And that's no reason for them to come ahead and say "lolz we considered it" everytime someone releases something new.
