Nintendo's Educational Side

March 28th 2009 17:16
Nintendo is working on entering the education arena, which is a pretty interesting and neat concept considering they've been in the gaming arena for years... But, you'll find that they aren't getting out of gaming considering that what they're doing is creating educational video games.

Nintendo filed the patent with the US Patent and Trademark Office, which tells a tale of an educational future aimed at young children between the age of toddlers and pre-kindergartners, and/or people with disabilities.

The patent includes various ideas including those of matching sounds with pictures and daily chores. Nintendo will include some of the favorite Nintendo characters such as Mario, as well as famous television characters such as Dora the Explorer and Bob the Builder.


But, remember that even though the patent has been filed, it doesn't meant that any of these plans will ever see the light of day. It's just an interesting idea that Nintendo is working on. Personally, I think it's a great idea being the older sister of a younger handicapped sibling.

Here are a few pictures that have been released with the patent.
