Iwata explained that the Wii's always-on architecture (formally introduced at E3 2006 as Wii Connect 24) would allow for Nintendo to send gamers monthly promotional demos for the DS -- literally overnight, while they slept. In this unique method of distributing promotional material, the LED light on the Wii will flash to unsuspecting owners who awake in the morning, signifying that an overnight download occurred. This promotional material, including demos, could then be downloaded from the Wii to the gamer's DS handheld. Iwata elaborated on the significance of this feature:
"More and more users have concentrated periods of gaming following major releases, and stop playing for months once that is over. I hope the Wii, like the Nintendo DS, will have its power turned on every day. To lead users to do that, we need to offer something new each day. That is why we thought of a system that would allow us to change our offerings during the night. I feel that allowing the system to stay connected to the Net throughout the night is a valid application of semiconductor technology."

Iwata also commented on Wii's Virtual Console within the interview, stating that a game that takes only a couple months to create and is more like a "simple bowl of rice or soup than a full dinner" is an important alternative to typical, drawn-out game experiences. The Virtual Console is then the ideal home for retro classics in addition to being the perfect breeding ground for completely new simplistic games, Iwata suggests as he states: "we [Nintendo] hope to encourage more developers to pursue basic yet enjoyable gameplay”. He also hinted at prices for these types of games, mentioning 500 yen as an unofficial pricepoint (or about five American dollars) .
* سعر العاب ال Virtual Console ستكون في حدود 500 ين ياباني ( 5 دولارات امريكية )
