Supposedly, The Pokémon Company is one of the first firms to be working on the device. An insider from gaming site CVG states the following:
{{quote|It's genuinely the best thing I think I've ever worked with. I can tell you that it's got a 'tilt' function that's not dissimilar to iPhone, but does a lot more. We know that The Pokémon Company are getting special attention with it.}}


This rumor comes with Nintendo's Q1 Media Summit in San Francisco just a week away, as well as the 2010 [http://www.gdconf.com/ Game Developers' Conference] just around the corner.  A formal announcement of some sort is expected soon.
