Nintendo is going back to their Family Computer and Nintendo Entertainment System roots. Of course they never really left that idea behind although sometimes it seemed they forgot. Today they pretty much announced that they were interested in selling more consoles and games. Lots more. They did that through showing off games that people will enjoy playing and devices that will supplement that enjoyment. Nintendo (and Sony and Microsoft) will judge the success or failure of "E3" by looking at the bottom line. That's what I heard and if anyone tells you different they're a GD liar.
The Wii Board is guaranteed to sell out for forever (or until hell freezes over, or they make a better one). It will sell at least five to every nursing home in North America, Japan and Europe. People will be buying them for their parents to try and get them to move around some more (even the Sony and Microsoft fanboys will buy them). It will be used in successful FPS's, sports games, rhythm/dance games (duh), a new Mario Party and a ton more. It will be used by doctors, physical therapists, sports trainers and dietitians.
Nintendo's self stated demographic has always been "E" for EveryOne. It seems like they've stumbled onto the winning formula again and caught the big one. Well, they know how to ride that wave.
