Message from U Make Confused Nintendo Wii

Nintendo has announced its new console, Nintendo Wii U in the Champions Electronic Entertainment Expo 2011. Media and fans are most warmly welcome this announcement.

U Wii console can attract hard core gamers with its High Definition capabilities. On the other hand, touch screen controllers can be applied to a variety of casual games, according to the first generation Wii market.

Given this, Nintendo President Satoru Iwata also wonder why investors do not welcome the announcement. Nintendo shares fell nearly 10 percent reported within 2 days after U Wii was announced.

"Frankly, the reaction to the presentation that day and what I hear from the people and also the atmosphere that appears on the show (E3-red) not the same as what happened in the market saha,. It's very strange," said Iwata

However, Iwata said this reminded him of the mixed reaction when the Wii was announced in 2006. That is, those who have not experienced the gadget is not going to understand its potential.

"Finally, it is easy to mistakenly assume this is only the console and games plus a tablet. People who come and try to understand that this has opened up many possibilities. But those who do not try will not believe that this will bring change," said Iwata.
