According to Shigeru Miyamoto, Nintendo have been looking into the idea of using the 3DS as a controller for the new Nintendo console codename Project Cafe.
Recent rumours have suggested that a screen-enabled controller will be one option for some games, while the machine will also support "Wii Remote-style controllers" for others.
Unsurprisingly, it seems the 3DS is one of the possible candidates for controlling the Wii 2 (rumoured project name 'Project Café'), according to legendary Mario creator Shigeru Miyamoto, who mentioned the next Nintendo console in passing during a 3DS presentation in Paris this weekend.
According to Miyamoto, Nintendo has been exploring the possibilities of connectivity between its latest handheld and the firm's 'future home console'. As you might expect, he left Nintendo's exploits mostly to your imagination, but did say that one possibility was for the 3DS to be used as a controller for the machine.
Doing so would be nothing new for Nintendo, which has done just such a mechanic before with the Game Boy Advance and GameCube. Specifically, a four-player game called Legend of Zelda: Four Swords included an option for players to use the GBA as controller, with main gameplay taking place on the TV while any players who entered a house or cave would revert to gameplay on the GBA screen.
