Reggie heeft weer wat opvallend uitspraken gedaan, ditmaal tegenover de CNN. Zo hebben zij het over de prijs van de Nintendo Revolution. Zo verwacht Reggie een stuk lagere prijs dan die van de concurrentie (Microsoft en Sony).
Value has been a key card for us this generation and we’ll continue to play it. Do I expect us to be at a lower price point than our competition? Yes I do. Have we determined a price yet? No we haven’t.
Verder wordt duidelijk dat men met de Nintendo GameCube enkele grove fouten heeft gemaakt in het verleden, dit zal Nintendo niet nogmaals gaan gebeuren:
I think there were some lessons we learned with the GameCube that we need to apply to the Revolution. First, we’ve got make sure that the titles in the first six months are strong and can drive sales. We’ve also got to make sure the console is attractive visually. And we’ve got to deliver on the right consumer needs. With GameCube, at the time, portability was thought to be a big factor – that’s why it has a handle. Obviously, that wasn’t the case.
