New Nintendo Interview! Great rip on M$ and $ony's strategies

http://www.engadget.com/2006/02/20/t...-vice-preside/
http://biz.gamedaily.com/industry/feature/?id=11909


Basically Nintendo is saying that their strategy is to make great games, and Microsoft and $ony's strategies are to get you to put a PC in your living room, make you buy HD TVs and restock your movie collection respectively.

Quote:
"We want to create a system with Revolution that appeals to all types of gamers versus going down a path that, frankly, is a bit exclusionary...

...They have gone down a path that is very expensive for consumers, very expensive for developers to create content against"
...Microsoft and Sony strategies are based on overall corporate objectives versus what's right for the consumer. That's a reality. Microsoft is essentially trying to get you to put a PC in your living room because they are fundamentally a PC software company. Sony is trying to get you to put an entertainment hub that has Blu-ray technology because that's important to their movie business and the rest of their entire electronics business."

I'm trusting Nintendo on this system. Sadly, everyone thinks that crappy games are where it's at and that innovation means squat.

Super Smash Brother online will rock your world guys. If you didn't have any brothers or sisters around to play this game with on the N64 then you don't know what you missed. But now that it's online you'll see how fun this game is.

Nintendo is a game company that has been around since 1889 in the form of trading cards. Now, Nintendo is a household word thanks to their innovative systems and captivating games. Nintendo's current lines of gaming systems includes the Gamecube, Nintendo DS, and the Gameboy Advance SP. Nintendo's next system, Revolution, is slated to come out in early 2007.
