Basically, this quote: “But you know if Nintendo comes out with a Wii 2 or a Wii HD, and it's got a couple more processors and a little more memory and better graphics, then yes we'll be on it" shows that his company is interested in being able to sell a common product to multiple vendors. Currently, the Wii does not meet those requirements, thus diversification would come at a cost.
I read somewhere (sorry I cannot find it -- I was on a different computer) -- that costs continue to escalate for production of games ... so much so that the fear is that the era of vast, story driven, graphical masterpieces may be coming to an end.
If you produced middleware for vast, story driven, graphical masterpieces and software that was considered the same, you would be upset over the little white box as well.

I seem to make friends with people who just can't stay out of trouble. Wii Friend Code: 1624 6601 1126 1492 NNID: Mike_INTV |
