Aint got a clue what it means, but its up on NoJ's site, and its happening tomorrow too. Seems like we're about to get the door opened to Wii

はじめに
Everyone, today. It is Nintendo Co. Iwata.
You call Wii, so far it is not, it is full in the new proposition where hard
Just whether it was made in some kind of intention, on the basis of the voice of the person who relates to development on site,
That little by little from this day we would like to keep us conveying to everyone, thought
(Perhaps there are no most front examples) had decided to begin unique serialization in world.
That by your gather information from the employee of your own company, is the attempt which you say, changes somewhat, but
Me myself, details and the background which can produce the machine, Wii,
You verify through the voice of the developer, would like to leave freshly securely there is also the thinking that.
With only the party that not being able to ask there is a large quantity because you think,
Please, we ask may.

第１回「最先端の技術を、これまでにない使い方で」
Iwata I am to think, with Wii which you complete as before, but
Normally, when it tries probably to make hard the game is new,
As for any such things you think that certainly it is not possible, it is.
Why Wii becoming such machine?
As for those which are called under some thought Wii being possible?
That, through this serialization we would like to keep us conveying.
First, generalizing the whole project, you ask to Taketa which you saw.
When most first it probably will make such hard, that thinking, is,
And, looking at Wii which finally is completed, please teach thought and the like.
Taketa As for the development of Wii starting,
The game cube being done, release immediately time is.
As for us, when one hard becomes shape
Directly, however it is to be the case that it starts thinking of the following machine,
The proper, they are not all parts and the case that it starts technology from [ichi],
It does not keep designating the technology which is society as the base the [te] does not become, it is.
When with saying, in the world of technology the generally known road map
(Technology of the schedule which in the future is released and the diagram and the plan which collected the product)
With being the case that it is some which are said,
Does technology of the semiconductor in the future evolve into some direction?,
As for evolution of the disk and the wireless faces to some direction,
Rough estimate, is the case that it is built in individual industry.
As for the general technician and the developer, while to refer that road map,
In the future, it is the case that it keeps making the machine which release is done, but
When now, you try looking at Wii which is completed freshly,
The machine which is in regard to extension of the road map of general technology
Don't you think? completely it became the machine which differs there is an impression that is.
Iwata Why, you think that it became the machine which is not in regard to extension of the road map?
Taketa This becomes paradox thought, but
If the former road map is stood on that way,
You think that it was faster, compared to it became the manner, gorgeousness, it is.
In other words, with the direction that it starts projecting luxurious image fast, the shank.
But, that it advanced to the direction, assuming
That, you felt there probably is an impact of some extent in the customer, it is.
When making more luxurious, hardship and cost of development side and,
It is new in the customer, you make feel trick of efficiency of the thing.
It reached the point where such ones, are felt in the middle of developing.
Iwata That was felt when around the empty?
Taketa After beginning the development of Wii, about 1 years the time where it passes probably will be?
When keeping speaking with the company which becomes the partner of development it is to feel keenly, but
Better ones!With it keeps seeking from the manner which is said
Demand of the people does not have criticality, it is with the shank.
The person who obtains 1 obtaining 2 next,
When 3 it says that it seeks next, so not to be, the [te],
5, 10, 30, 100. with in the manner which is said,
Demand accelerating keeps rising, it is.
When it keeps pursuing there, it becomes outrageous thing.
It starts feeling strange feeling there developing, about 1 years the time where it passes is.
Iwata Then, from concrete
You ask to the salt field which has related to the technology of Wii.
First, it makes explain simply you had taken charge of what?
Salt field It is. The fact that I take charge is development of the semiconductor in this Wii.
With saying, as for development of the semiconductor
Because it is not the case that Nintendo Co. manages directly,
The company which becomes the partner and it started developing together.
Iwata As for development of the semiconductor, when deciding the efficiency of the new machine,
You think that it becomes the very big factor.
Expecting development at the beginning of Wii and, between those which are completed,
Being different or the fact that etc it is not different, please teach.
Salt field When you call to the large [zu] biting enormously,
As for essential technology of the part which becomes base of the semiconductor,
It does not change that much with any machine, it is.
Simply, method of using the essential technology is different depending upon the machine.
Wii freely uses generally known leading semiconductor technology, but
Method of using the leading technology,
It is different from the other machine largely, it is.
Because is, in the part that you use leading semiconductor technology,
However it did not deviate from the expectation of development beginning largely,
Those which the part of method of using expected it has become the shape which is different.
Iwata Concretely, it probably is what thing?
Salt field Some time ago, it was even in Taketa story, but
Normally, when it tries probably to keep using new semiconductor technology,
It keeps advancing to the direction which gorgeously, with is said to higher performance.
If you refer to CPU, steadily it tries to raise operational ability.
Use electric power increases and, also the tip/chip becomes large.
In order to make that actualize, naturally, high semiconductor technology is required.
But, the leading semiconductor technology,
If there is also a method of using which is directed to the luxurious kind of direction which now was said,
Completely it is the case that it is also the selection that it is used in another direction.
For example, if you use the same leading technology,
It can do to make the tip/chip small,.
With Wii utilizing technology in such direction,
Electric power consumption of the machine is made as much as possible small, it is.
If the tip/chip becomes small, it is possible to make the size itself of the machine small.
Making the tip/chip small, if you hold down electric power consumption low,
It becomes possible to turn on power with anytime, it is.
While using leading semiconductor technology same as the other machine,
The use differs largely, it is such.
Iwata Generally, the technician who dislikes the fact that it is the high performance thinks that it is not.
Is called in the midst of and Wii developing directivity of the machine which,
Always, unless it faces to high performance, when being decided,
There was no trouble as a technician?
Salt field There is a trouble, the better seed. When you say more honestly, insecurity you felt.
It does that it is different from the road map it means that after all courage is and.
Especially, just doing what with this machine?
Still as for the time where it has not been visible, insecurity was large, is.
As for the hurdle itself that, it makes electric power consumption small, it is possible to exceed.
Actually, at the stage whose development is quick, the prospect that electric power consumption is held down passed.
However, unless it is clear whether that in some manner in the game life it finishes that
After all, insecurity and trouble do not go out, it is with the shank.
Because is, this selection by mistake is not, that as for can be convinced,
Everyday, something you call the machine where new thing occurs
After being struck out in the form which the concept of Wii is clear is.
Because 24 hours, it is the case that by the fact that it turns on electricity that becomes possible.
Iwata Until Wii becomes such machine, in distance,
As a turning point of development
Is there an occurrence which remains in impression?
Salt field So, don't you think? is, the time where it has made strenuous efforts to making electric power consumption small,
When leading semiconductor technology is used,
The notion that electric power consumption of the former machine how becomes,
It has tried simulating it is.
When it does, when this technology is made to apply to the game cube,
The semiconductor which electric power consumption has used with the game cube
It was found that from 1/4 it becomes 1/3.
When looking at the result, this is enormous, you thought that is.
Of course, as for that simply also you have been surprised as a data, it is, but
It is instantaneous feels the originality of the company, Nintendo Co., it is.
Normally, when making the new machine,
The so far compared to does CPU become no time fast?
Is memory stacked no time? Is polygon indicated no time?
With it is the case that it keeps competing in the part which is said, but as for Nintendo Co.
Being able to point so far to the same thing, it can designate electric power as some 1?
With it is the case that it does the argument which is said.
Iwata Why such argument was possible, it is probably will be?
Salt field After all, Nintendo Co. the company, the usual,
We would like to do the new thing where something we would like to do that it changes,
Because with it continued to think, is not, probably will be?
So is even in inside and, directing to the other company
Because such message was made always,
The company which becomes the partner of development,
The nature it reached the point proposing new technology and idea.
In such environment, you call Wii
When it makes normally, the machine which is not produced was born, you think that it is.
Taketa It is proper thing, but efficiency back burner, with is not the case that it is said, it is.
Low performance, low power is possible anyone.
Toward high performance, the other people aim high power.
Among such, as for us with Wii
Low power, it is the case that it pursues that, high performance.
However technically and efficiency it is the leading edge,
The direction which you aim is different from the former machine completely, don't you think? it is.
For example trying thinking of the evolution of the automobile,
Everyone lining up on the straight line, it is not the case that it is advanced.
Although speed is rivaled, attention worldwide has focused in the hybrid car.
As for evolution of former game machine,
Basically, you think that power of the engine was rivaled, it is.
However, it is not the case that all cars appear in F1.
Salt field As produced the new axis, the hybrid car environmental efficiency,
Wii thinks that new value was discovered.
With saying, it is not the case that it got off from technical competition.
On the other hand, technically about the mountain it stuffs high-level thing.
Taketa Leading technology is used in the direction which is not so far,
Using the technology, simply aiming toward the high performance compared to
It is difficult considerably, being complicated, it means that technical power is.
Even system Wii [nintendou] 64 and the game cube
The extent which does not become comparing ones it has become complicated.
Furthermore, because Wii has the game cube and compatibility,
Not only aiming toward new thing, it does not leave either the function of former times and does not become.
Honesty, was not simple thing, but
You can propose to society with self-confidence,
You feel that the machine which is full in new charm was produced.
(It follows to tomorrow)
