Nintendo is at it again, now that they received another Emmy award from the National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences for its innovative Wii motion-sensing controls, and the dual-screen and tactile interface of the Nintendo DS.

The award was presented in Las Vegas on January 7 at the Technological and Engineering Emmy Awards. This would be the second award that Nintendo has received in a row, with the previous award recognizing Nintendo's invention of the plus-shaped D-pad that is widely used in many gaming peripherals.

The invention netted the gaming company the Emmy Award for Peripheral Development and Technological Impact of Video Game Controllers last year.

I%u2019m 17 and I know that I%u2019m far more intelligent you are in older more unwise age. just because ps3 has better graphics and what not does not mean it%u2019s the best system. I own all three of the systems and the ones that turn on the most is the Wii And 360.
