Now for the debate........
Last night on the podcast an interesting subject came up. Will the Wii hold up against Kinect or PS3 move? I feel like Nintendo has always put controller development at the top of their priority list, but now they've been surpassed. You have to give them credit, the Wii was VERY innovative. Originally released in Nov. 2006, if took about 5 years for other companies to catch up and surpass the system.
Nintendo has no plans to come out with a new console anytime soon according to Game Informer in Nov 2010. My concern is that the controller based Wii is not going to hold up against the camera based Kinect. I mean seriously, how cool is having no controller? I'm quite the Nintendo enthusiast and definately do not want to see the Nintendo regime fall. Since they have never really been a company to innovate graphics, I'm just really interested to see what their next move will be. There are some rumblings on the net that the gaming giant is going to try and take the Wii 3D however. This is an exciting concept, but nothing concrete has been reported yet.
They do however, have the rights to classic characters and titles that most of us don't remember life without and will gobble up at a moment's notice. The new DK Country, Goldeneye, Mario Galaxy 2 have all been big hits for the console. Hopefully this is enough to keep Nintendo rolling. I worry however, that this won't be enough and Nintendo will go the way of Sega and Atari.
So if YOU have an opinion leave us a comment. I love starting debates! Also it's this week's Poll question for the Ball and Chain podcast. Cast your vote at........
Until next time!
