Because it’s still “just” a DS, there doesn’t seem to be as much buzz over the DSi as there was the last DS handheld revision, the DS Lite. Just because there’s no buzz, however, doesn’t mean the thing’s not selling.
At a fake beach today, Nintendo’s vp of corporate affairs didn’t want to tell me how many copies Nintendo hopes to sell of Wii Sports Resort. Nor shipped. Give me something for a post, Denise! She suggested this.
Nintendo can’t win, can it? Put out games to expand their audience, and the core gamers are upset. Put out core games, and core gamers want more.
E3 2008 is over. Finished. But Nintendo hasn’t forgotten and is sending out thank you notes, thanking folks for attending its presser. The letter reads: “THANK YOU for attending our E3 media briefing. Nintendo aims to bring people engaging experiences…to make them smile…and we hope we provided you at least a little of that during our event”. Below that, it’s signed by Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime, vice president of corporate affairs Denise Kaigler and vice president of sales & marketing Cammie Dunaway. Regardless of what you thought of Nintendo’s E3 press conference (eh…), classy of them to send out thank you notes.
