Its one thing to make a comment that helps put your company and product in a better light, it's another to just put out a comment that obviously most consumers disagree with. I suppose he has the right to say what he wants but how is it good PR when he knows most of the gaming world disagrees with him at the moment.Had this been Phil Spencer, he would have gotten the same treatment, if not worse and deservingly so. Nintendo still has a lot to offer to consumers in my opinion, they just need to stop worrying about these daily "Wii U is dead" articles and take a few more risks. Xbox is behind and has begun to take a shit ton of risks and obviously it's working. They have a shit ton of games that are exclusive to the Japanese people, games that other markets desperately want to play and instead of bringing those over, they keep re-releasing the same old Mario platformers. |
Phil spencer can say this if he wants, thats his job, and unless he starts says the PS4 and Wii U are terrible consoles he doesnt really deserve to cop this kind of treatment. The kind of people who have issues with these kind of statements are the ones that spend too much time on the front lines of the console wars.
I agree Nintendo needs to take a risk or two, maybe even rethink their strategies. However I don't think they can possibly attmept to loss lead like Microsoft is at the moment, they don't have microsoft money.
