Nintendo of America’s beefburger boss Reggie Fils-Aime has claimed that third parties don’t “get” the Wii, and that is why there is a lot of rubbish on the console.
“I will be able to say our licensees ‘get it’ when their very best content is on our platform,” explained the savory executive after admitting that third party support is not known for its quality. “And with very few exceptions today, that’s not the case.”
I find myself disagreeing with the gravy-blooded boss on this count. I think third parties “get” the Wii completely. They “get” that you can put shovelware crap on the platform, fill it with useless waggle, and sell a bunch of copies to retards and the terminally ignorant. I’d say they “get it” completely.
If anyone’s failing at the Wii, it’s Sega and Capcom. Putting good third party games on a system? They’re doing it wrong!
