Video game controllers
On 27 January 2012, Nintendo President Satoru Iwata announced in a briefing that the controller of the Wii U home console will have an installable NFC function. By installing this functionality, it will become possible to create cards and figurines that can electronically read and write data via noncontact NFC and to expand the new play format in the video game world. Adoption of this functionality will enable various other possibilities such as using it as a means of making micropayments.[72]
