I loved this little quote:

Quote:
It’s a virus where you buy it and you play it with your friends and they’re like, “Oh my God that’s so cool, I’m gonna go buy it.” So you stop playing it after two months, but they buy it and they stop playing it after two months but they’ve showed it to someone else who then go out and buy it and so on. Everyone I know bought one and nobody turns it on. Obviously there’s a class of people who really love it and enjoy it and are getting into the games but I’m still waiting for that one game that makes me play it.

Sounds litter bitterness @ Wii's success to me, bet he felt the same towards DS.

Epic's dictionary: "Videogame, see: Graphics".

Of course Epic doesn't like the Wii. They are the archetypal 3rd party set up for destruction from the Nintendo wave. The Unreal Engine absolutely requires healthy sustained worldwide sales from the HD consoles, since that's the basket they've placed their eggs in. They don't have the capacity of an EA or Ubisoft to slash HD development and survive exclusively with the casualware. Iwata's utter domination of the market has to be extremely worrying for them.

Exactly. Couldn't have said it better myself.

Oh, and I'm tired of people implying that the Wii is just missing HD graphics and nothing else. First of all, no where is it written that you can't have graphics AND gameplay. Second of all, nexgen games aren't just HD graphics. They're improved AI algorithms, better story-telling (without text Nintendo!), online play. It's not just better graphics...it's better...everything.
