Nintendo going to focus more on WiiWare
February 20th, 2009 Posted in DS, News, Posted by Valay, Wii“WiiWare is not magic, and digital is not perfect. I think that there’s more that Nintendo can do to support (WiiWare games). This year, Nintendo will increase resources for development and promotion.” – Tom Prata, gamemaker’s senior director of project development
Prata had a few other things to say as well – Nintendo is “working to increase the connection rate” for the Wii, reiterated that a Wii storage solution is on the way, confirmed that DSiWare will launch when the DSi releases, and stated that Nintendo wishes to better promote WiiWare titles. Nintendo plans on, for instance, partnering with GameTrailers for an upcoming contest in which gamers can submit videos of World of Goo gameplay.

DSiWare is the way of the future. As soon as people start using it, they will never go back. Imagine getting the latest games and applications no matter where you are.

They can start being committed to wii ware by having free dev kits instead of charging $2000 for one.
