The problem is, wait for it PS360 fans, NO ONE GIVES A SHIT. MS dude is accurate in making this same point, although ironically its the same argument that they use unsuccesfuly against Nintendo.
Look at my shiny buttons, what? No one cares about HD, not to the level that some people claim.
Ok, i have an 80w X 6 Marantz amplifier with all independantly purchased Jamo german speakers including 100 w subwoofer. Its amazing, but most of you don't a shit right?
Thats kinda what MS is saying here, the problem is there own logic defeats their own argument.
“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.
