Bedenker Harvest Moon heeft weinig vertrouwen in de Wii

Yasuhiro Wada, de bedenker van de [tag]Harvest Moon[/tag] reeks, liet in een interview weten dat hij best wel weinig vertrouwen heeft in de [tag]Wii[/tag]. Volgens hem is de [tag]Nintendo DS[/tag] de grootste concurrent van de Wii, en zijn er ook nog haast geen games die enkel speelbaar zijn op de Wii. Toch hield dit er hem niet van tegen om een Harvest Moon naar de Wii te brengen... De belangrijkste stukken over deze statement in het interview kan je verder lezen.

"It’s very difficult. Wii cannot really compete against PS3 or 360, which is why Wii’s main competitor right now is DS. They are competing on the same level. So, Nintendo has to work harder to make Wii’s own market, as opposed to competing against DS’s market. This would be my first piece of advice to Nintendo."

"...Future games plans such as Brain Training on Wii or that type of thing – I don’t think this is such a great idea – as these games are already being played and are very popular on DS...they are not specific to the Wii."

"...To reduce the price of the DS! That’s my main bit of advice. I think they can do it. The made a decision on pricing and they went for a higher price. If they want to reduce the price they can."
