Quick Quotes: Analyst Jesse Divnich voices his opinion on Wii U
“The feedback from the development and retail community has been universally positive. The only downside I foresee is the likelihood of AAA core ‘ports’ to the Wii U console. It would be great to see Battlefield and Assassin’s Creed on the Wii U, but let’s be honest, no core gamer is going to break habit and buy it for a Nintendo console. I can only hope Nintendo strongly advises (and aids) publishers in creating truly original content for the console.” – EEDAR’s Jesse Divnich (via Gamespot).
