 Send to email | Only "Geeks" and "Otaku" Want More Wii Memory Space [Nintendo] in Nintendo Europe News Wii wiiware |  By Brian Ashcraft
el 12-Jun-2008 |  We would sure like more Wii memory space! That would be great and make people happy. Wait, strike that. One more time: That would be great and make geeks and otaku happy — at lease according to Nintendo of Europe. Website Next-Generation brings word of a recent Euro Nintendo event:
As is always the case with Nintendo?s press events nowadays, the dirty word ?casual? was raised at its WiiWare preview, only to be dismissed in favor of a distinction between gamers and non-gamers. Playing these semantic games is fine, but when a pertinent question about the limited Wii system memory was raised, Laurent Fischer, managing director of marketing at NOE, easily slipped into talking about how ?geeks and otaku? were the only people who would want this issue addressed. This is oversimplifying something that will only become increasingly important as Wii developers explore the console?s online service, whether through WiiWare or DLC, and is of concern to not only a niche section of the market that wants to buy into that content.
Because we all know that soccer moms will so be all over those WiiWare games. Laurent Fischer? Marketing genius. Nintendo's Mixed WiiWare Messages [Next-Gen]

| The Space Tourist Who Wasn’t |  I met Daisuke “Dice-K” Enomoto in Star City, Russia, in August 2006. Enomoto, 37, is slight with tired eyes and a shock of bleach-blond dyed hair. His idea of space travel comes from comic books and Star Wars. He grew up as a self-described otaku, coding his own computer games and dreaming of space—or, at [...] [..] Read complete article | | Published 20-Aug-2008 by Nerdblog in General
