RUMOR - Over 100 games still coming to Wii?
When someone put out the call to Nintendo's customer service to see what the fate of the Wii was with Wii U on the way, here's what a customer service rep supposedly said.
“Hello,
Thanks for writing. We appreciate your sharing your concerns with us. Please note that I have documented your comments and will make them available to the appropriate departments within Nintendo to use as they see fit.
With the announcement that a new home system is planned for release in 2012, it’s too early to say how this may affect the future of the Wii console. However, it’s important to point out that Nintendo and its licensee partners have over 100 new titles in development. These will be added to the existing library of over 1000 games (not including WiiWare or Virtual Console games) already available for Wii. It’s also common in the video game industry to continue to support older hardware once its successor has been released.
Sincerely,
Alex Schuster
Nintendo of America Inc.”
Once you factor in shovelware, movie and TV licenses, it's not hard to fill up that slot of 100. Still, you have to wonder if there are any worthwhile games in there. That is, if the comment is true! Thanks to Barto for the heads up.
