Epic Games' Präsident, Mike Capps, hat wieder einmal betont dass seine Firma keine Spiele für Wii in der Entwicklung hat und sich dies in Zukunft nicht ändern wird.
Seiner Meinung nach will Epic sich nach vorne bewegen und nicht einen Schritt zurück machen. Daher will man nur in die Next-Generation Technologie investieren.
[quote] IGN: What do you think of the Wii and Nintendo's
Capps: Pffffffffft
IGN: (laughter) I know! I think the same thing! It's like, "Come on, why are you buying this system?!"
Capps: I know. I've got one.
IGN: Everybody does! Bring it out at parties and everyone's like, "Oh it's a Wii!"
Capps: Part of it's being cheap. I think it's a, I mean, so two things: first of all, great credit to them. The first time I played a videogame with my parents aging myself a bit was on Atari 2600. The next time I played a videogame with my parents, 25 years later or whatever, was Wii Tennis. So it's about bringing people together, families, Thanksgiving, all that. I think it's kind of like a weird virus because I have not yet found a reason to play with my Wii since then.
IGN: Exactly. For a real gaming experience
Capps: Right, Zelda I really didn't enjoy on it. They back-fitted the control scheme on it, it was better on the GameCube. Mario, I wish there had been a button instead of wiggle and all that kind of ****. So I haven't played anything that I really wished hadn't been on another platform sadly enough. It's a virus where you buy it and you play it with your friends and they're like, "Oh my God that's so cool, I'm gonna go buy it." So you stop playing it after two months, but they buy it and they stop playing it after two months but they've showed it to someone else who then go out and buy it and so on. Everyone I know bought one and nobody turns it on. Obviously there's a class of people who really love it and enjoy it and are getting into the games but I'm still waiting for that one game that makes me play it. Who knows, maybe Wii Fit will be it.
