But why would he be excited about a game on new hardware

...because that is part of his job.

It's his job to speak positively about the product, I agree, but did you read his words? The man's words made it seem like he was bouncing around the room with excitement. That's what caught me off guard.

nintendo's leadership has made statements time and time and time again that raw power and graphics is not important to them. if you are expecting the wii U to be a significant leap over sony and MS then you fundamentally misunderstand nintendo,

There's a difference between graphics not being their focal point, and using similar graphical powers to the *last generation* of consoles. I suppose this trend really started when Iwata took the reigns, because every time I hear this argument I always think back to the older generations and dismiss your argument, but if we split Nintendo off into old vs new Nintendo, then the new Nintendo has thrived on giving power that is more similar to the previous generation. You're right.
