Reggie Fils-Aime, President of Nintendo of America, says that consumers know the differences between the Wii and Wii U and are no longer confused about it. The Regginator believes that unique titles only for the Wii U like The Wonderful 101 and Pikmin 3 for fixing people’s perception on the Wii and it’s successor. Consumers and future Wii U owners can fully grasp what the Wii U can do with those titles unlike the original Wii.
“That issue has been largely addressed, I think, as We’ve told consumers all the great things you could do with the GamePad as we’ve showed fantastic software like Pikmin 3, and Wonderful 101, Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker in HD. The consumer I believe now understands this is a brand new system with brand new capabilities. It has all of the benefits of backward compatibility. And we’re the only next gen system with backward compatibility, so the consumer has this great library of games from Wii, can use them with the Wii U. But now they understand all of the new capabilities that they can have.”
