This is the last bit of news, coming once again from Reggie…
“And you know what, we’ve said, the teams are in development. Those big first-party Nintendo fan games are coming. Here’s what I would say to the fans. From our perspective, there will be the Zelda games. We highlighted one today. There will be the Mario games. [Donkey Kong mentioned] Those are all great franchises. [Kid Icarus mentioned] We’d love to bring them all to life. That’s all a sense of priorities. [On Mario for WiiWare] When we’re going to work on a Mario title, we’re going to bring it to Wii, or DS…The point is, we want truly, truly innovative content to be first launched on WiiWare and that’s awfully tough to do with a Mario title.”
Reggie: PS3 has challenges, Nintendo wants to be better than Xbox Live
Posted on 15 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 26 Comments
Nintendo’s President and COO of Nintendo of America Reggie Fils-Aime was recently asked about what worries him in terms of the competition. Fils-Aime commented on both the PS3 and 360, saying that the Sony has some challenges with the PS3 and that Nintendo looks to see what can be done to be better than Xbox Live.
“What worries me, if I would focus in on Microsoft, we’ve always looked at what they’ve been able to do from an Xbox Live standpoint and we constantly want to say, ‘What can we do to be better than Xbox Live?’…It’s a little hard [to say something nice about the PS3]…They’ve got some great games that they’ve been able to bring out, they’ve been able to get some fantastic content. But, you know, you look at the results and clearly they’ve got some challenges.”

Graphics in The Conduit “just the tip of the iceberg”
Posted on 15 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 3 Comments
“This is just the tip of the iceberg, there are new graphical technologies we’ve already developed that came along too late to include in The Conduit.” – Matt Corso, High Voltage Software
What we’ve seen thus far in Super Mario Galaxy and The Conduit have already impressed me, but this is really great news for Wii owners searching for games with more higher-quality graphical effects. If more can be squeezed out of the system, there will probably be less complaint’s about how titles look – that is, if developers take advantage of everything the system has to offer.
