While Wii Music certainly didn’t fail, Nintendo president Satoru Iwata is still slicing his forearms and smashing his head against a brick wall, tears streaming down his face about the fact it never sold eighteen million billion trillion duplicates like everything else on the Wii. Actually, that was a lie, but he’s still disappointed.
“I agree that Wii Music, as of now, has not reached its true potential,” claims the Nintendo boss man. “On the other hand, I feel that Wii Music is a software that elicits largely two extremely different reaction from consumers. There are people who highly appreciate it and those who do not appreciate it at all.
“For Wii Music, the impression seems to absolutely depend on each individual player. It is unfortunate that Wii Music wasn’t immediately appealing enough to some consumers, but it simply might haven’t been the right game for them.”
Iwata admits disappointment, but is still hopeful for Wii Music, stating that if the company had simply given up on Brain Age when its original sales didn’t hit targets, it wouldn’t have been the dominant DS title it is this day.
