Fluffpiece on CNBC Xpress on the Wii US launch. New Yorkers in Times Square were featured briefly. Any GAFFers in frame?
Iwata is interviewed. Nothing worth mentioning. Basically, Iwata brings out the controller, the host (dumb blonde type) acts surprised by its small size (sexual undertones for those of you looking for it) and Iwata demos Wii Sports Tennis. Hosts gets to try it as well and comments on how easy it is compared to the Famicom controller.
Then she throws a softball question about Wii vs. PS3 and 360 and Iwata notes that Japanese software sales have declined, games have gotten more difficult and required more time investment since in FC and SFC era etc. etc.
The 2nd part of the piece is a fluff piece on Namco Bandai's Ennichi no Tatsujin a Wii Japan launch title.
Enjoy.
