NEC Electronics' Embedded DRAM in the Wii

NEC Electronics announced yesterday that Nintendo has chosen to go ahead with NEC Electronics' 90nm CMOS-compatible embedded DRAM for the Wii. This means that the new LSI chips will be manufactured using advanced technologies on NEC Yamagata's 300mm production lines. Viewed as an optimal solution to integrate high bandwidth data using minimal power, this collaboration between the two companies should equal great success in the launch of the Wii.
