Nintendo Uses Green Hills Software's MULTI Integrated Development Environment

Nintendo Co., Ltd has selected Green Hills Software's MULTI integrated development environment (IDE) for Wii U development. The companies have entered into a global license agreement. The deal enables Nintendo Co., Ltd. to offer Green Hills Software’s MULTI integrated development environment (IDE) to developers that are creating video game software for the upcoming Wii U platform, which is scheduled to launch later this year.

Green Hills Software's MULTI integrated development environment contains the industry's most powerful and proven tools for developing embedded software with maximum reliability, maximum performance, and minimum code size. The MULTI development environment supports more target processors, operating systems, and third-party tools than any other IDE -- making it ideal for enterprise-wide deployment. With MULTI IDE's potential, the user is able to develop, debug, and optimize code more speedily, considerably reducing both development cost and time.

In a press release, Genyo Takeda, senior managing director of Integrated Research (News - Alert) & Design at Nintendo Co., Ltd, said, “We selected the Green Hills Software solution because it generates highly optimized code, and Green Hills provides excellent global support.”

Tim Reed, general manager of Advanced Products, Green Hills Software, commented, “Green Hills Software has a long history of supplying the most demanding global corporations with the tools they need to build innovative yet cost-effective and reliable electronic products. We are proud to be a valued partner of Nintendo."

Green Hills Software is the largest independent vendor of embedded development solutions. Green Hills, the Green Hills logo, MULTI, and INTEGRITY are trademarks or registered trademarks of Green Hills Software, Inc. in the U.S. and/or internationally.

Green Hills Software was recently in news when it announced the highest compiler performance scores ever certified by EEMBC (News - Alert) CoreMark. The company outperformed the nearest competing compilers by 35.5 percent. Higher performing processors signify embedded device designers gain a larger performance budget on the same core, enabling them to add new features, make existing features run faster and improve user interface response time without the need to add a faster or more expensive core.
