Cliffy B will be “watching the Wii U closely”
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii, Wii U | 0 comments
Epic Games design director Cliff Bleszinski has a fairly positive outlook on Nintendo’s new console. He told Reddit users last week that he’ll be “watching the Wii U closely”, and while he believes that the Big N “may have initially lost a little of their core with the Wii for a bit”, he thinks “they seem to have realized this.”
Below is Bleszinski’s response in full:
“Being raised on All Things Nintendo I will always I love all things Nintendo. I’ll be watching the Wii U closely. I think Nintendo may have initially lost a little of their core with the Wii for a bit, honestly, and they seem to have realized this. I believe they also recognize that we live in a ‘multi-screen’ culture hence the controller design. I played ZombiU at PAX and it was promising (even though the controls could use a little loving!) so we’ll have to wait and see. I sometimes wonder if we’ll find ourselves in a PC/Phone/Tablet future, honestly.”

Reggie: Wii U will have lots of games, hardware performance doesn’t impact support
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii, Wii U | 0 comments
At this point, many of you have probably heard about Wii consoles that have been “collecting dust” due to a lack of interesting games. That has led some to be concerned about the possibility of the same situation happening with Wii U.
Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime tried to put some of these fears to rest while speaking with Kotaku. Reggie addressed the lack of Wii games in the system’s past couple of years, and also talked about the possibility that third-party support could dwindle in the future if the Wii U can’t stack up to the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 successors.
We’ve posted the entire conversation below.
