TalkBack / Re: Nintendo Evaluating New Wii Remote Motion Chip Manufacturers

« on: December 05, 2008, 05:37:33 PM »

STMicroelectronics has been a reliable supplier to Nintendo from its first shipment of the revolutionary Wii gaming system. We continue to have a strong relationship with Nintendo and have been achieving all appropriate milestones. That other suppliers are trying to take this business shouldn't be news to anyone and we're disappointed that anyone should take at face value comments and innuendo by these other suppliers that a major customer is considering changing suppliers without identifying the source or confirming the information with the customer. With regard to future developments, ST is moving forward aggressively in our own accelerometer developments, as we've always done. Since delivering the first accelerometers for the Wii, we've continued to improve the sensitivity and performance of our accelerometers while increasing our manufacturing efficiency. All this is aimed at maintaining and reinforcing our existing business relationships and at building strong new ones by helping our customers deliver cooler gaming systems, hotter phones, and better products
