Speaking with IndustryGamers this week, big wig has said that Nintendo will move in step with the advent of HD technology, hinting for the first time that the console maker could embrace the technology.

"I don't think there's anything wrong with pretty graphics, and if I'm a consumer that has an HDTV, I'd want to be able to play my games with nice graphics too. And I think as we've seen the penetration rates for HDTV increase, we're going to see games and Nintendo's games move along in step with the progression of technology," the veteran reveals.

"But what I don't think is necessarily true is that the graphics itself is something that's going to make the gameplay experience better. So we're still going to focus on the gameplay, but we'll take advantage of the technology as it comes out."

A HD has been rumoured repeatedly, but the Big N has always stopped short of confirming anything. We'll keep our noses to the ground.
