Yeah, I don't think Reggie is the right person to criticise others for not releasing enough games...
How come American Wii gamers aren't playing Xenoblade or looking forward to The Last Story or Pandora's Tower, Reggie? Please tell me.

Well, apperently, they do not look good enough.

 

Also, How come Mr. Shiny Chin isn't fired by now?

If I recall Sony's approach with the move was one of softly softly does it , bring it to the market as an accessory that gives players another option rather than trying to make it integral to the PS3 experience , So there was no need to give it a large advertising budget or have heaps of move titles in the pipeline , instead push integration with titles like KZ 3 e.t.c , like they seem to be doing with 3D and mix that with a select number of Move branded titles.
At least that's my take on it.

That is what they said their approach was, but that was not how it happened... atleast in Britain where it was the most advertised game/device/console for a good while even moreso than the Kinect. The only reletive thing that was advertised more than it, in the same period, was Fable 3 which at the time of its release owned every other advertisement slot (I suppose this is anecdotal in a sense but we are talking about national television here). In reality it would appear that Sony made quite a kerfuffle about move, and certainly far more than they would have you believe.

 

OT: Reggie cannot speak about lack of games, certainly there hasn't be too many 'great games' released for Kinect and many of those announced even before launch still have yet to release but I would say that 75 games for an accessory in one year is a pretty good number even if a good majority of those are not too desirable for the likes of a 'Gamer'... but then again the same could be said of the Wii. I think next year could well be different though with Project Draco (possibly releasing if it hasn't been cancled. I hope it hasn't), Ryse, Steel Battalion, Starwars Kinect and dare I say Fable The Journey (which will most likely be very disappointing sure, but I hold out hope of it being good). As for Playstation Move I haven't really followed it but it seems to be much more an addon to many games compared to the Kinect and they have made it a feature of a few big first party titles (LBP2, KZ3 etc...). Plus 85 games overall impliment it in some way, which is also a very good number for just one year considering the fact that it is an accessory and not a full blown system.



hahahhahaha the irony...is too much
and kinect and move has more supported games in recent times than what nintendo has done for motion plus..



"what's wrong with you" LOL

I never liked Reggie, before not liking Reggie was in vouge. Way before OP Rainfall and this only cements it. Really lack of content, where the hell are the motion+ games, THe peripheral that had sold millions, where are the Ninty WiiWare games??

lol reggie kinect has a wide variety of games releasing for the holidays and sony is releasing 8 move games just this month...

how many nintendo wii games have been released in the entirety of the year?



The sooner Reggie AND Kimishima are gone, the better. He needs to be removed immediately. Satoru Shibata would be perfect. Sine we'll never be able to drag Minoru Arakawa out of retirement, he's the next best thing.



I'm glad nobody feels this way about Sony or Mircosoft bosses saying something about other companies.

At least that's my take on it.

That's was exactly their strategy.  Before they even released it they said they felt it would be a slow burn.  So there may be fewer Move only games, but there are tons of games that are including it as an optional control method.  Which is something I prefer really.  Plus, where are all the Motion+ games, Reggie?

@ Rol

What are you talking about?  He's a great salesman!  Doesn't this just make you want to run out and grab a 3DS?



Whoa Reggie. Maybe thats true about Move. After all, its extremely hard to think of dedicated Move games that got critical acclaim on Metacritic, not a dualshock 3 game with move support tacked on as an afterthought. But Kinect has some great games since its release, Dance Central, Kinect Sports, Child of Eden, and Gunstringer come to mind.
