Nintendo DS TV Tuner Dated |
Listed in: Nintendo DS Tags:
Ó
The Nintendo DS TV Tuner will be seeing release in Japan on April 29th, 2006. The device looks like it make the DS twice as large, at least. The bulky accessory lets your Nintendo handheld receive analog TV signals so you can watch TV on the go. Yes, I said Nintendo handheld. The Game Boy Advance and Game Boy Advance SP will also work with this device. The battery will support it for 4 hours before dying.

Second, the shot you see is a tv tuner. It is not, however, the one that Nintendo is in exultations over. That one I recall seeing since the DS first came out on LikSang. I would not be surprised to find that its sales are lacking.
Third, the design shot posted earlier seems more accurate to what Nintendo described for their new TV Tuner. Remember, they're Nintendo, they have some of the best technicians/designers on the planet. Also, don't forget that a tv tuner is nothing more than a circuit which can receive/translate radio frequencies. Similar to a wifi card, it can all be placed inside a chip. The one posted is a cheap bastard approach, using a large board (someone who doesn't have access to a micro-sized press), hence its size.
Or, I could be just talking out my ass, but in the end, I think my statements are valid.
