In the end I got banned because ironically they couldn't stand my point of view on Nintendo. Yes, a pro-Nintendo site irritated at someone pro-Nintendo. Weird. ... ...in many places like Kotaku...I KNEW and said ad nauseum that Wii was the Future of Gaming. Posters there started getting a kick out of everytime I would say DOMINATION or DOMINATED or something like that in reference to the Wii in the 7th gen. ... Many of my predictions are so long-term (minimum 240 million for Wii lifetime for example)... |
I think those three excerpts sum up everything about you very nicely.
We don't provide the 'easy to program for' console that they [developers] want, because 'easy to program for' means that anybody will be able to take advantage of pretty much what the hardware can do, so the question is what do you do for the rest of the nine and half years? It's a learning process. - SCEI president Kaz Hirai
It's a virus where you buy it and you play it with your friends and they're like, "Oh my God that's so cool, I'm gonna go buy it." So you stop playing it after two months, but they buy it and they stop playing it after two months but they've showed it to someone else who then go out and buy it and so on. Everyone I know bought one and nobody turns it on. - Epic Games president Mike Capps
We have a real culture of thrift. The goal that I had in bringing a lot of the packaged goods folks into Activision about 10 years ago was to take all the fun out of making video games. - Activision CEO Bobby Kotick
