Re: Epic Games President Explains Wii's Success
Looking at it from his perspective, wading through decade-old cpu technology when you can work with the newest stuff with very little to limit you isn't very encouraging.
Still, the situation is this: A vast market pie is just waiting to be eaten, but he decides to hold back his company's appetite in the name of artistic integrity. Good for him and the developers. Not exactly healthy for his company, but hey, that's 2-3 Wii games I don't have to worry about buying. Right?
(my wallet is happy, yet my inner Wiiself is crushed. But my inner 360 can look forward to more dual analog shooters. Talk about melancholic inner termoil.)

I don't think anyone can really explain the Wii. Maybe Miyamoto, but that's okay. The Wii is a lifestyle and a way of thinking. And it's not about money and popularity - although, printing money is nice - it's a voice that says, "Here I am and **** you if you don't wanna play me." And one of these games is gonna save the world. And that means wii can save the world - all of us together. And the chicks are great. But what it all comes down to is the zone: that indefinable thing when people catch something from waving their arms around like idiots. And the chicks and the whatever, all that is an offshoot of the zone.
