The chief of Square Enix believes the next-generation games consoles are too complex for the new onset of gamers.

"There is a new breed of gamers in the market – we have to make games for all kinds of people,” said Mr Wada, in an interview with the FT. “In the old days, we could just focus on the PlayStation or the GameBoy, but the environment has changed completely.”

The developers of the infamous Final Fantasy series will instead be focusing on handheld games, such as Final Fantasy Tactics and Dragon Quest IX. The Nintendo DS will be their biggest priority, believing there are many features that can be exploited as supposed to the big–game consoles.

The Nintendo DS is more than just a mobile game console. Now you have quick portable access to the web via the new DS browser, a $30 add-on packaged as a game cartridge. It features a dual screen to view sites in either Overview mode, which presents the complete web site on the lower screen with the highlighted area zoomed in on the upper screen, or with Opera’s Small-Screen Rendering, where the upper and lower screens are combined to act like a single display.

Since the DS already includes Wi-Fi, this browser add-on is capable of accessing the Web on a home wireless network, at one of the free Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection hotspots, or at public access hotspots.

Scott Hedrick, EVP Marketing, Opera Software says Nintendo is continuing to expand the usability of the platform. "DS Browser makes it easy to check news, popular user generated content sites or comparison shop while in a Wi-Fi hotspot," he added.

The browser is available for both the Nintendo DS and Nintendo DS Lite systems. Both can be found on Nintendo.com, while the browser for DS Lite is also available at locations where video games are sold.
