Miles de entusiastas, algunos que habían acampado durante varios días, hicieron fila afuera de las tiendas en Nueva York y Hollywood.
La firma japonesa ya domina el mercado de videojuegos portátiles, tras vender más de 200 millones de sus máquinas DS y Gameboy en el mundo.
Pero su consola casera más reciente, GameCube, no tuvo tanto éxito, sobre todo después de que comenzaran scarce games produced for it.
Still, the first buyer, Isaiah "Triforce" Johnson, stayed for a week in a row outside a shop in New York.
"had to be the first to have it," said the 29 years, shook hands with the president of Nintendo America, Reggie Fils-Aime after buying the first device.
Design "brave"
expected Nintendo Wii, designed to be more accessible than its rivals, increase their profits. Therefore, the strategy seems War away from the PlayStation and Xbox.
Sony and Microsoft have positioned their consoles as home entertainment centers authentic, offering high-definition gaming and film quality, with digital downloads on the Internet, high-performance graphics and central processing chips.
Instead, Nintendo try to redesign the gaming experience, opting for a control that looks like a remote control but more sensitive, offering gamers an experience simpler, but also more attractive.
for the console games are designed to be more accessible, a focus on casual and family games.
Looking for new players
Experts are divided over whether Nintendo will be able to break the traditional barrier between gamers and those who are not fans of video games.
However, the company is known for its long history of innovation.
So far, the companies producing the most important game, as Electronic Arts and Ubisoft, have backed Wii announcing the launch of new games for this console.
Hiroshi Kamide, director of research KBC Securities Japan, said Nintendo will not only get win converts to the world of video games, but also Sony and Microsoft will win because people will buy Wii in addition to your PlayStation or Xbox.
The chip could be used to add audio and video postcards, or to ensure that medicines have not been forged, and a multitude of potential uses.
But HP said the mechanism will still take two years to be released.
The chip is between 2 and 4 mm when the existing version can contain up to 512 kilobytes of information.
Memory
HP said it is very possible that the amount memory chip can store the increase in future versions.
"This really connects the digital world with the physical world," said Howard Taub, a director of HP Labs.
"Digital information is attached to the physical object it is connected," he said.
And because the chips are tiny size, would be very easy to embed as documents are printed, or attached to any surface.
HP believes that once it starts to be produced for sale, market price could be a dollar.

A group of U.S. researchers outlined a system relatively simple to send power wirelessly to devices such as laptops and MP3 players.
The concept is based on a discovery of very old physics and could work at a distance of several meters, the researchers say. Although not yet built and tested a system of mathematics and computer models indicate that it is possible.
"There have been many independent teams in recent years, from cell phones to personal computers, we started thinking it would be very convenient not having to reload," said one researcher, Professor Marin Soljacic, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT, for its acronym in English).
"And because we are physical, we wonder what kind of physical phenomenon could be used to do this wireless energy transfer." "When you have two resonant objects of the same frequency they tend to couple very strongly," he told the BBC Soljacic.
resonance can be seen, for example, musical instruments. "When you play a sound in one instrument, one that has the same acoustic resonance and vibration obviously gets it." Instead of using acoustic vibrations, the system devised by the researchers is based on the resonance of electromagnetic waves.
