Nintendo News | Full DS Downloads NOT Coming to Wii

Update - Recently the New York Times published an article about an interview it held with Reggie Fils-Aime in which he supposedly stated full DS games could be downloaded on Wii. Simply it was wrong information. Nintendo has issued a statement about the fundamental error. Check it out below:

"An article about the Nintendo DS video game system in the Dec. 31 Business Day section of the New York Times incorrectly referred to future capabilities of the device. The statement that complete Nintendo DS games will eventually be able to be downloaded into the device via a wireless connection with the company's Wii game console is incorrect. Users can download games to play on Wii, and, in the future, the Nintendo DS will be able to receive demo versions of some DS games from Wii, but not the entire game. The demo will be erased once the Nintendo DS is turned off."

So clearly the NYT got confused, believing that WiiWare was the process of getting full DS games via Wii, which as we all know it certainly is not (well, not yet anyway, unless something changes in the future).

Stick around for further updates...

Original Story - In an interview with NYTimes.com, US Nintendo President, Reggie Fils-Aime has stated full DS games, as well as demos, will be downloadable via Wii's online connection in the future.
