Ds Primed For Dual-screen Web Browsing?

With its two usable screens and handy touch-screen interface we're surprised that a Nintendo DS web browser is yet to hit the scene. By the looks of it though, Nintendo's vice president of sales and marketing, Reggie Fils-Aime, is just as surprised at this omission as we are - and plans to do something about it.
Speaking to American games mag EGM, the Fiks-Aime explained, "We thought a licensee (third party) was getting into that area, and once we heard that we backed off", adding that Nintendo might develop the DS web browser itself. "If we end up seeing that nobody's really going to enter that space, it may be something that we'll go back and look at. I know that Mr. Iwata has talked about it."

With 860,000 people now battling it out on Nintendo's Wi-fi Connection service, we're sure that a fair few DS owners would be interested in some touch-screen web browsing. Expect more news as it comes.
