Q & A Interview with Nnooo creative director, Nic Watt

UK-born, Nic Watt's pet project, Nnooo, has found remarkable success from a digital download platform that many dismiss - thanks in large part to Nintendo's DSiWare platform, Watt has expanded his small team to four, and is now on the hunt for a senior programmer to expand further.

He sat down with us to have a chat around being a start up, the challenges of developing on other platforms (Nnooo also has WiiWare and iPhone games available, and is looking at the PlayStation Network), and makes some predictions for the future.

3D virtual console on Nintendo 3DS?

Here's an interesting possibility - not only might we finally see a handheld virtual console on the upcoming Nintendo 3DS, but the games might also get the 3D treatment.

Nnooo announces new DSiWare downloads

Australian ISV, Nnooo, has announced a number of new products in its myLifeCollected series.

myDiary is a new application for the Nintendo DSi console, available for download through the DSiWare service. It will allow users to keep track of appointments, make journal entries and set alarms.

Nnooo will also offer enhanced versions of its successful myNotebook product - a basic note-taking application, also through DSiWare. The myNotebook products will allow users to create 128 'pages' of content, export their notes as photos to the DSi console's memory, and a number of interface improvements over previous editions of the software. The new range of notebooks will be available in three colours - Tan, Carbon and Pearl.

All four new products have been planned for release between July and September 2010. These kinds of simple applications have proven to be enormously successful on the DSiWare service to date, so it's no surprise to see Nnooo continue to develop products of this kind.
