Guide to Greener Electronics - Nintendo, September 2009

Nintendo remains in last place but with an increased score of 1.4 out of 10, up from 1 point in v.12, for the energy efficiency of its low power AC adaptor for the Nintendo DSi that meets the requirements on the external power supply in the Energy Star Program. On other energy criteria it loses a point due to a second year of increases in greenhouse gas emissions, despite a commitment to cut CO2 emissions and other greenhouse gases by 2 percent over each previous year. Emissions in 2007 increased by 1.5 percent compared to 2006, following a rise of 6 percent in 2006. Nintendo retains a point on energy for disclosing carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from its own operations.
