The DS is now a travelguide

Postby Mr. SmartyPants » Mon Apr 24, 2006 2:08 pm

What will they think of next?

http://www.nintendo.co.jp/ds/aubj/index.html

It's a travel guide and translator for the DS.

There are five currently:
  • Thailand
  • People's Republic of China
  • South Korea
  • United States
  • Germany


All I can say is: Woah O.o

The DS can do anything.

What did my taxes? The DS.

What cooks me food? The DS.

What gives me massages? The DS.

What is a tasty snack? Well, not the DS, but we'll count it anyway.

Though the PSP has more hax0r support, I hear some die hards are making some crazy stuff for the DS.

Last I heard someone already put Opera on it and managed to control iTunes from a DS.

Anyone else find it weird that it doesn't have info for Japan?

EDIT: Oh wait. If it's only in Japan, that'd make sense. If they bring it here . . . they better. I would buy it.

Lol, I need to watch that movie... OK you're right. I do love my Xbox. And my country. :3


So, getting back to the topic; will there be a need for this once the web browser comes out?

It could be kinda useful, you wouldn't need this is a web page existed that could do it but if the software is ready to do exactley what you need it would be more convienient.

I wuoldn't worry though America and England can't use the technology yet. It uses a broadcast code that is common place in Japan but not used anywhere in the States or Britian. Can't remember what it was called though.
Will insert something intelligent here later... maybe
