Gotta love the video edit showing a portion of Mario Galaxy running on a DS.

Serious journalism is seriouz - I hate Sunday Night, its the worst Australian "serious" journalism ive ever seen, and obviously thats NOT including Current Affair or Today Tonight, but none the less, I saw the story, and it was passable.

- Coulthard didn't mention the glassless 3D, he simply called the 3DS a 3D console

- Kinect thing was kinda bullshit, although it was interesting to see them tie it all together with only a single mention of the Wii

- That dev. who worked for Japanese and American game companies was semi-interesting. The whole thing seemed like a short 5 minute promotional video, rather than an indepth investigation.

Link is here btw - http://au.tv.yahoo.com/sunday-night/video/-/watch/23128658/

“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.
