At this year’s Technology and Engineering Emmy Awards, Nintendo was honored for its work on both of its current-gen gaming systems, the DS and the Wii. The intuitive and unique control styles offered by both systems earned Nintendo the Emmy award for excellence in engineering creativity.

This marks the second year in a row that Nintendo has been honored at the Engineering Emmy Awards due to the fact that the company received a similar award last year for the design of the D-pad. After receiving the award, Nintendo of America’s Don James stated:

The pioneering interfaces for Wii and Nintendo DS reflect our long tradition of seeking new ways to enhance the gaming experience for users at every level. We’re grateful for this award and thank the academy for honoring us a second time.

Congratulations to Nintendo on this achievement, and hopefully we can continue to see new, exciting innovations from the company in the future!
