Quick Quotes: Reggie on Nintendo’s decision making process
“When everyone agrees that there’s a change coming, that doesn’t necessarily mean that the change or the outcome is easy to predict. What maybe seemed like foolproof bets even a matter of weeks ago now seem a little less certain. Nintendo needs to make decisions not only by instinct and experience, but also based on where the market is, and a determination of where the market might be headed. New forms of games are growing, but not necessarily at the expense of other forms of games.” – NOA President Reggie Fils-Aime at the19th Annual Digital Entertainment Conference attended by IndustryGamers.

a not-at-all veiled swipe at his masters in Kyoto that – a very public statement of frustration over dogmatic decision making?

Hey, Reggie, why doesn’t Nintendo put Xenoblade Chronicles out via Amazon if you’re so worried about not being able to sell a certain amount?
Also, how can core gamers trust in Nintendo’s systems when they decide not to publish perfectly good games?
