Speaking in the latest issue of Nintendo Power, Reggie Fils Aime decided to get all introspective and looked at the lacklustre GC launch and how Wii can improve on it.
(The launch line-up wasn't) "diverse and strong enough from a first and third-party perspective."
To top it all off he went onto say that the next wave of games was far too slow in arriving, however Nintendo were changing.
"We have been sharing information and development tools with publishers since very early on in the process. We have communicated to them why it makes sense to develop for the platform, and why it makes business sense to bring their best current franchises and brand-new concepts to the platform, those have been our key tools and tactics to make sure that publishers are on board with our strategy."
So will we be getting a broader range of games early on for the Wii? More third party titles?
"From Metroid Prime 3, Mario Galaxy, and Ubisoft's Red Steel, the core gamers will be thrilled. With Tennis and WarioWare, we have titles that will reach the masses, and, based on the sheer range of titles we've shown, we're confident that the entire first year of Wii's launch will be strong. So, I believe we are well on our way to addressing the key lessons coming out of the GameCube launch,"
All sounding promising once more for Nintendo. Roll on the launch!
