Nintendo’s new console, the Wii U, won’t actually break cover until sometime between April and December 2012. That makes it pretty hard to tell just how good those new HD graphics we’re promised actually might be.
But that didn’t stop it showing a three minute montage of third party titles including games like Darksiders II, Ninja Gaiden 3 and DiRT. Guess what? All of that footage came from Xbox 360 and PS3 versions. Not that Nintendo was keen to mention that…
Nintendo has ruled out any plans to produce a mobile phone. Nintendo president Satoru Iwata suggested that a Nintendo phone might be a possibility if a way could be found around the need for a monthly subscription. Not so, says Nintendo of America boss Reggie Fils-Aime.
Despite being a little late to get behind the whole Internet gaming fad, Nintendo US’s President Reggie Fils-Aime has pledged that his company will “keep pace” with the changing face of games, and specifically the emerging trend for user-generated content. Speaking at the BMO Capital Markets Interactive Entertainment Conference, Fils-Aime showcased four Japanese titles to back his words.
