TBH, I like this new strategy. It keeps hype levels at healthy levels, for the most part. And the surprises keep everyone guessing and speculating. Seeing trailers of a great game then seeing "Coming 2010" makes you a little pist knowing you're going to have to wait better than a yr to play that title.
I don't think the software Iwata is talking about is Nintendo made only. I think there are third party games that will be unveiled that will shock the hell out of us. AAA third party efforts in addition to Nintendo's own efforts...Pretty nice combo.
Bet between Slimbeast and Arius Dion about Wii sales 2009:
If the Wii sells less than 20 million in 2009 (as defined by VGC sales between week ending 3d Jan 2009 to week ending 4th Jan 2010) Slimebeast wins and get to control Arius Dion's sig for 1 month.
