"It is disappointing to see them frame these ideas in industry terms. The Wii's effective declaration of independence from industry norms allowed them to go far, but with drawbacks in terms of an even deeper third party rejection than GameCube experienced"
That drawback was more because of stupidity among third parties, and an inability to see making games with less focus on graphics and showing off. Other M (as in allowing it to be made in the first place, and not treating the reaction as a reason to disown it) showed Nintendo is being infected with that as well.
A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.
Plus, just for the hell of it: Kelly Brook at the 2008 BAFTAs
