Um you do realize that the article also said that it reduced loading times from regular mini dvds, which means the disc is different. It doesn't matter if the drive could play dvds, the discs are different. Otherwise nintendo would have to pay the DVD forum. IT also says developed by Matsushita and Nintendo.
@ Your other post. Just because a phone plays games doesn't mean its a gaming console. Same to you morgyn.

It's based on DVD, and DVDs worked on the system. The point is Nintendo didn't create disc tech, nd as morgyn points out, they didn't create touch screens, either. Also, you might want to check the Japanese cell-phone gaming scene.

So pc gaming is popular in korea. Is that a console now? Anyway we are talking specifically in gaming consoles. Not where discs originiate. And then lets say sony and nintendo both copied discs in consoles, because both sega and philips had disc based consoles. Anyway I never said copying was bad.

Sony created optical discs parallel to Phillips. They didn't copy anybody with that.

Actually laser disc was created by MCA and like I said before they weren't the first to bring it to consoles.
