Cliffy B will be “watching the Wii U closely”
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.”
