Moore Likes Wii

Wii

Peter Moore really does like the look of the Wii, it seems. He sat in on a roundtable with GameDaily, and was asked about the Wii again (having already remarked earlier that people would buy a 360 and a Wii for the same price as a PS3).

'Well I hope my friend Reggie [Fils-Aime] sends me one, I don't know,' said Moore. 'Look, I was there when Iwata-san pulled out that thing. I was there in the front row in Tokyo...and I said [to myself] 'You've got to give 'em kudos for trying.' And I'm literally going to go over there tomorrow and try to find Reggie or find Perrin [Kaplan] and I think Mario's the game… if you've got to play one game it's Mario. I'm sure I'll get one. Right now I'm trying to get my Brain Age down [laughs]."

"Look, it's not partisan; I love what Nintendo is doing. They're in a different space...and there's this view now that you buy a 360 for Halo, Grand Theft Auto, Gears of War, all the other stuff we got going, and if you want Metroid, you want Zelda, you want Mario, you go get a Wii. And you put the two together and it's probably the same price as the PS3.'

It's kind of funny how Microsoft is supporting the Wii. I guess they've embraced Nintendo's 'we're not in this race' ethos.
