Presenter: John Kirriemuir (Silversprite)

Description: Since the demise of the Sega Dreamcast, Nintendo have taken over the mantle of the most innovative games console manufacturer. The DS with the touch screen and microphone; the Wii with the remotes and movement; the Wii fit with the balance board; software such as Brain Training and ElectroPlankton. This presentation looks at the history of Nintendo, and reviews some of these technologies. It also looks at some of the unexpected consequences, such as the Wii being used in nursing homes, the uptake of fitness games, and gaming being introduced to new demographics.

I love Nintendo. So should you. So say we all.

This is a joint presentation with Corrine Syster. Two for the price of one - and three lucky attendees will receive a chocolate prize for attending. See you there :-)
