People are complaining about the technology of Wii Motion Plus not already being in the Wiimote when it first came out. So basically Nintendo listened to the feedback on the Wiimote and improved on their own device and people are complaining. You don't always make a product perfect the first time so there's nothing wrong with improving it imo. .. .. I see a lot of people complaining about Nintendo's Presentation at E3 but Nintendo did exactly what they wanted to do, and that was go after the mainstream press. Hardcore gamers follow the internet and Nintendo has plenty of time to showcase their games to them. They emphasized fun for everyone, pushed their 3 E's slogan, and debut a new device that will make people take notice. It is pretty obvious they can release Wii Sports Resort this year but they are aiming for Spring. That's because they know Wii Fit is enough to make the Wii sell out this holiday and the extra time will give developers more time to make games for MotionPlus. Wii Sports Resort almost certainly guarantees that the Wii will sell out for 2009. .. .. You guys think The New York Times or The Washington Post will run will a story like Killzone 2 for the PS3 or FF13 for the 360? Nope they don't care about that. You could list 100 games and they probably wouldn't give much attention. Nintendo's conference had a theme and that was about disrupting the industry. About improving upon yourself so that immitators are left behind. That becomes news worthy. That is how you win E3, by winning the mainstream press. edit: For some reason I can't seperate my paragraphs. |
You've got a point but don't you think the press will take notice of the lackluster response of the audiance? |
I don't think the press will pay attention to the audience. The audience went nuts when SSBB was first announce from what I remember and they didn't run with that story. Remember when Wii Fit was first announced. Not much of an audience reaction but it made the news for weeks and we are still feeling the fallout.
