Gamers may get bored of Wii Remote Swing
Nintendo President Satoru Iwata has expressed his delight at the success of the Wii but still believes Nintendo must be cautious as a lot can happen in a short period of time. He said one of the main challenges will be to make software that keeps people from becoming bored of swinging the Wii remote!
"And while the Japanese blog suggested that Nintendo might be able to regain the #1 position in the video game industry, Iwata immediately rebuked that notion, not necessarily because of the challenge the company faces against the likes of Sony and Microsoft, but because of the somewhat fickle interests of today's gamers.
"That's not the case," Iwata said rebutting the idea that Nintendo would be #1 from 2007 forward. "So long as we continue the fight against the lack of interest in games from the general consumer, Nintendo will always be the challenger. For example, one challenge is in developing software that keeps people from saying they're no longer interested in swinging the Wiimote."
