In this retrospective from last year's GDC, we examine how many of the features of the Nintendo DSi were tried and rejected in prior hardware before ultimately converging in Nintendo's latest handheld.
Masato Kuwahara, DSi Project Lead, spoke on the development path of the DSi at GDC 2009. Mr. Kuwahara began by reminiscing about earlier projects before delving into DSi talk. While the speaker worked on many of the early projects independently, the DSi design involved lots of collaboration amongst the majority of different project groups at Nintendo including hardware, software, and others.
