Nintendo Wii Phone?

Categories: Insane.

Is there going to be more Wii items available in the near future? Possibilities are quite good that there might be…

“According to rumors, Nintendo are planning to release the Nintendo Wii Phone. The company may see it as an opportunity to compete with Apple iPhone and Microsoft Zune Phone. Stay tuned for more updates!

We never would’ve thought Nintendo was looking to the mobile phone industry with any kind of plans for branching out, but according to the linked patent, which was filed in November 2001 and issued in June 2006, they were (and could still be). The patent, which reads as “Electronic apparatus having game and telephone functions,” doesn’t really paint a picture. Luckily though, we yanked some screens from Engadget, so check them out after the post break.”
