Nintendo gets into the router game, plans to destroy competition by not really trying
Filed under: Gaming, Wireless, Networking
Nintendo just announced a 5,800 Yen (about $54 US) WiFi router, built to take that pesky wired Ethernet internet and blast it across your home in a palatable WiFi fashion for use by your Wii or DS. Just like every other router ever. Only this one is cheap, cute and built by Nintendo, so watch out Linksys / Netgear / everybody. The “Nintendo WiFI Network Adapter,” meant to supplement 2005’s WiFi USB Connector, looks to be Japan-only at the moment, and is due for a September 18th release.
