Here’s what Reggie shared when it was said that Nintendo consoles’ online functionality have trailed behind the likes of Xbox Live and PSN….
“… Now we’ve got a system that will have all of that type of capability built in.”
Reggie was then asked whether third parties will be able to create their own Wii U networks and online worlds…
“Our approach [to online] will be a flexible one, literally taking the best of what each of our third party partners has to offer, marrying that with the best of what Nintendo does, and bringing that versus a more rigid, a more closed type of environment. We’re going to be sharing what we’re doing from an online perspective over the next few days.”
