Speaking at last weeks GDC conference in San Francisco, Nintendo’s Takeshi Shimada announced a whole host of intuitive features set to benefit Wii developers and users in the very near future.
A text-to-speech facility which will enable Wii owners to receive news and weather announcements whilst they’re playing, or could enable email or other personal messages to be read aloud to the user, was announced by Shimada.
The revelation that a microphone is in development for the Wii is also doing the rounds in the blogosphere, alongside substantial claims that voice activated titles are currently well into development for the ever-innovative console.
Now let’s just hope that the microphone can be used for online play! :)
Or a possible SingStar rip-off anyone? :P
