Reggie confident about Nintendo’s second-half of 2010
Posted on March 13, 2010 by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News
Nintendo’s first-half line-up of games is practically a dream come true for fans. Two huge games – Super Mario Galaxy 2 and Metroid: Other M – will be released in just a few months, as well as Sin and Punishment: Star Successor. With such an impressive first-half line-up, though, most Nintendo fans can’t help but wonder what Nintendo has up their sleeves for the remainder of the year. While Nintendo’s Reggie Fils-Aime wouldn’t reveal anything on the latest GameTrailers TV, he did say that he is confident about the second-half of the year because of the long tails of their titles that will have already been released and because of the new games that will launch later in 2010.
“I am confident. And I say that because we are very fortunate that we have titles with long tails. And so in this first-half of the year, we not only have the benefit of Galaxy 2 and Other M, as well as Sin and Punishment and Monster Hunter Tri and Red Steel 2, great line-up, but we also have still contributing strong sales of Wii Fit Plus and New Super Mario Bros. Wii. My expectation for the second half is we’ll have not-only Fit Plus and Super Mario Bros. for Wii, but we’ll also have the ongoing tail of Galaxy 2 and Other M as well, plus all of the new titles. So yeah, I’m feeling pretty good for the second-half.
