David Yarnton, general manager of Nintendo UK, was recently interviewed concerning the success of the Nintendo platforms, the Wii and the DS. Yarnton talked about the future of the two platforms and how they'll stand up to the test of time.
One can only wonder how the platforms can keep up their momentum. The Nintendo DS, for example, has enjoyed high sales in Japan for a long time now, but sales declined heavily last week for some reason.
Yarnton explains that to keep the momentum of the DS, Nintendo UK will be focusing on creating new software titles as well as building on existing franchises. They have releases from franchises that they believe will be a "chart presence" for years to come.
As for the Wii, Yarnton remains confident of its success in the future, saying that it is still strong in both the hardware and software market:
Wii is still in high demand and in the space of twelve months we have become the top selling next-gen format with the highest installed base in the UK. This is due in part to the fantastic content we have available for our systems, and from the strong ongoing support from third party publishers. We are as confident as is possible that Wii has a solid future.
