Free Lesson Plans Allow Students to ‘Master the Science … Master the Game’
REDMOND, Wash., Nov. 7, 2007 – A new in-school program uses basic characters and themes from Nintendo’s popular Pokémon® Diamond and Pokémon® Pearl video games for Nintendo DS™ to teach elementary and middle school students about science. Nintendo of America, Inc., The National Institute of Aerospace (NIA) and Nortel LearniT, have teamed up to make it fun for students to learn the sciences using imagery they already know and love.
Now through December, a variety of printable lesson plans and classroom activities developed by NIA are available to students and teachers at www.masterthescience.org. For instance, a lesson plan might teach elementary school students how to tell time using a sundial, or middle school students about how the universe is expanding. An activity component is also built in, where teacher and student questions can be submitted and answered by science experts.

REDMOND, Wash., Oct. 11, 2007 – Wii™ and Nintendo DS™ continue to appeal to every kind of consumer. As Nintendo’s list of upcoming games demonstrates, Nintendo has a game or experience for everyone, no matter their taste, age or video game playing acumen.

For Nintendo DS, Flash Focus™: Vision Training in Minutes a Day and Master of Illusion™ again will make people think of video gaming in a whole new way.

The media event is now over—we should have some more news/videos later
9:56 a.m.: Looks like the gameplay demonstrations are at an end and thus, so is this live blog. Look out for Smash Bros. coverage later today, but you’ll have to wait on the rest.
9:53: Playing to the backdrop of Twilight Princess’ bridge. I hear a lot of “Pika! Pika!” Doesn’t look good for old Boz, though. Eight seconds left. Five. Four. Three. Two One. End. Pikachu comes in last place. So very, very sad.
