Iwata on 3DS sales targets, video downloads, Wii successor
Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, General Nintendo, News, Wii | 0 comments
Last night, we posted some comments from Satoru Iwata regarding the Wii’s successor. Fortunately, it looks like the translation was pretty much accurate! We now have a direct quote from Iwata about Nintendo’s next home console, as well as information about the 3DS.
Iwata was first asked about 3DS sales targets…
“We don’t have a specific sales target, but we’d like to increase the number of people who experience it to beyond the DS. We’ve equipped it with a 3D camera and so-forth, which can also bring in those who aren’t interested in games.”
Iwata was then asked about video downloads for the 3DS…
“The 3DS will be the first 3D video playback device to reach major penetration. We’ve had many proposals from the film, music and such industries. We’re looking into distributing Hollywood trailers and movies, along with things like 3D reference software.”
Last but not least, here’s the direct quote from Iwata about the Wii’s successor…
“It’s just four years since release. It’s selling over 7 million units a year in North America, so we don’t think it’s at the limit. We’ll make decisions about a successor system at the time when software developers cannot offer surprises (on the Wii).”

Iwata says no Wii successor anytime soon?
Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News, Wii | 0 comments
Update: You can check out Iwata’s direct-quote right here, as well as some comments about the 3DS.
Nintendo’s Satoru Iwata has apparently told The Yomiuri Shimbun that gamers shouldn’t expect a Wii successor anytime soon. Iwata pointed out that there are still seven million consoles sold in the United States each year and the console has yet to reach its limit. The Nintendo president mentioned that once developers begin to run out of ideas, it will be possible to start thinking about a new console.
Although an immediate console announcement is unlikely, perhaps Iwata will tease what’s on the horizon for Nintendo at his Game Developers presentation on Wednesday. His keynote is titled “Video Games Turn 25: A Historical Perspective and Vision for the Future”, after all!

Team Meat officially confirms cancellation of Super Meat Boy on WiiWare
Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 0 comments
This information comes from Team Meat’s Twitter…
“Meatmortem recap1: Wii and Wiiware canceled, but we are now 3ds devs so who knows what may happen!”
Well, that’s the end of that! I suppose the 3DS is the only potential way Nintendo-only gamers will be able to experience Super Meat Boy. Of course, that’s only if Team Meat chooses to bring the game to the handheld.
