Last week Nintendo’s Reggie Fils-Aime conducted an interview with Forbes to help raise awareness for Nintendo’s products for the Christmas period.
In the Forbes interview Reggie talks about how Nintendo is positioned for the upcoming holiday, and how the Wii U is different from the rival Playstation 4 and Xbox One consoles.
Reggie said: “The state at Nintendo is very strong, we got a lot of momentum right now going into Holiday season.”
Reggie also stated that Nintendo “will always pick quality over quantity”.
He also commented on the fantastic success of their flag ship kart racer Mario Kart 8, stating: “Our Wii U business has essentially doubled since we launched Mario Kart 8. The momentum continued with Hyrule Warriors and Bayonetta 2. We feel very good heading into the holiday season”.
Latest figures from Nintendo claim that 47% of all Wii U owners have purchased a copy of Mario Kart 8. For more information on Mario Kart 8, check out the official site.
