The producers of the Nintendo Wii’s main memory , Mosys, have confirmed several details of the console’s main memory, performance and shipping date in a recent webcast discussing 2nd quarter financial results.

Among the different topics discussed was some Wii information, particularly on the main memory the console will use:

• The Wii will be using 1T-SRAM as previously confirmed in May, R version.
• 1T-SRAM-R includes transparent error correction, that’s useful to correct any memory errors during operation and is accomplished without adding any silicon area or cost to the unit.
• 90nm process.
• NEC is shipping chips at the end of Q2 2006.
• For the Wii, MoSys is getting 50-70% of royalties per unit over the GameCube due to increased volume.
