Did you guys know that MS poached the same US product marketing guy that Nintendo used to sell the Wii to the US?

Just goes to show where they're pushing this product, and its not upmarket. Im wondering if Sony was one step ahead of MS and Nintendo, or MS were ahead of both by sticking with the (still percieved to be) blue ocean.



“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.
