Wow, Reggie seemed stiff and forced. not anything like what I’m used to seeing, he didn’t seem impassioned, he seemed uncomfortable. Who wouldn’t though? Image standing in front of hundreds of critics and completely ignoring what they want. Imagine glossing over release dates to your most important franchises like they’re yesterdays news.
No wonder he seemed uncomfortable.
In between the self back patting and nigh masturbatory YouTube clips there was a glimmer of hope. Super Smash Bros. Brawl and Super Mario Galaxy finally got release dates. And Nintendo couldn’t care less. Perhaps you could labor over these important titles? No?
We get WiiFit instead? Oh boy. Can’t wait to get on that over simplified DDR mat. Nintendo thinks they’re Apple, and now they seem to be telling us what we should like just like Apple.
Nintendo seems to be going down the path that I had figured. They are positioning themselves as the mass amrket console. Or at least, they think they are. I’m more inclined to believe they are positioning themselves as the introductory console. Think: “If you like Nintendo Wii, then you’ll love the Playstation 3…” Sickening to think about.
