Other than museums, Iwata listed train stations and amusement parks as possible locations that will make use of the DS' extended functionality, presumably to check train schedules and receive amusement park layouts and guides.

Iwata also mentioned the recently revealed Wii gift channel would unsurprisingly be making its way to the console worldwide in December, arriving just before Christmas. The channel will allow gamers to buy Virtual Console titles and give them to friends as gifts.
