"Miyamoto needs to think up more ideas for the Wii"

 

Nintendo Co., President Satoru Iwata has said that Wii Music completes what Miyamoto wrote in his proposal when he came up with the idea for the Wii. According to Iwata, Miyamoto has said he now needs to think up more original ideas. Iwata has also said that Nintendo don't really have any more accessories in the pipeline for Wii. "Most of the ideas for accessories that we had initially come up with are out now. We might think up some more, and we might make them if we do,>>>>>>>> but we don't have any plans to release a whole lot more."<<<<<<<< he said.

"Nintendo: of course we're working on our next-generation console"

Nintendo Co., President Satoru Iwata was recently asked to comment on speculation about Nintendo's plans after the Wii. "The hardware team started work on the next thing as soon as they were done with their previous project, but what they think up doesn't necessarily become a product. We only turn something into a product after it's been thoroughly vetted inside the company. We're not at a point where we can give specifics, but of course we're working on it." Iwata replied.

The article describing the information contained in the source was done by Maxconsole , I've been arguing that Nintendo will have no choice but to loose momentum , in the first 2 years of the Wii's existance many of it's biggest IP's have been thrown at us I was shocked to find Super Mario Kart and Smash Bros Brawl come out in the same year , I heard some where on these forums that Nintendo were going for a 10 year stratergy with the Wii but  I seriously dought the Wii could last another 3 years without serious 3rd party support , what's your take on this ?

Oh and for alll those of you who will probably bring some sales statistics in an atempt to disprove me, re-read the post because this has little to do with the Wii's current sales performance but everything to do with Nintendo supporting the platform and keeping it strong.

1. So which is it?  Waaa, too many accessories or Waaa, no more accessories?

2. This is how every single console maker operates.  The day after they complete their console, they start work on the successor.   Been that way since the 70's.

3. 4 Jak and Daxter's, 5 Ratchet and Clank's, 3 Sly Cooper's, 4 Socom's, 4 ATV Fury's, Etc...all on PS2.   Any reason Nintendo is not allowed to make that many titles of their franshises in one generation?

4. When Miyamoto and group were desinging Wii, Shiggy planned a few specifically deisnged titles to take advantage of the console and attract new consumers.   Wii Music is the last of those planed titles.  That doesn't mean he's not making any more Wii titles,
