Voilà la reaction de Nintendo sur l'arrivée du mastondonte Halo 3. Et comme je l'avais signifié précedemment, Nintendo pense qu'[i:3u5va59l]Halo 3 [/i:3u5va59l]n'aurait qu'un effet limité sur les ventes hardwares car les fans d'[i:3u5va59l]Halo[/i:3u5va59l] possédaient déjà la console...
[quote:3u5va59l]MN: The Wii console has been a big hit to date, with you guys having a difficult time meeting demand. This is going to be a bad Christmas for folks still wanting to buy one, isn’t it?
R: We have been sold out worldwide since we launched … Every time we put more into the marketplace, we sell more, which says that we are not even close to understanding where the threshold is between supply and demand.
MN: There’s been a lot of buzz about Microsoft’s “Halo 3.” How do you expect it to affect the console battle this holiday season?
R: Will they sell a lot of software? Certainly. Will it sell hardware? I think it’s an open question. Why? Because I think that the “Halo 3″ consumer already has the hardware, because they’re playing “Bioshock” and “Crackdown” and a variety of games that are, in the end, quite similar: first-person shooter experience, multiplayer capable online. Tell me what’s new?
MN: So do you feel like you need to counter [i:3u5va59l]Halo 3[/i:3u5va59l] in some way?
R: No. [/quote:3u5va59l]
