Ok, here we go... Who thinks that big company's get away with too much bullshit these days?? Like Nintendo releasing a lil widget to make their controllers 'more accurate'. Why wasn't it accurate in the first place??? I'ts like releasing a PS3 or Xbox controller that's missing a thumb stick and buttons that you will have to buy later, just so it can work properly... OK so that's a bit extreme, but you get my idea.
The iPhone did something similar, release a phone with no video or MMS ability then a year later make a big deal out of it cos the new iPhone now has video and MMS and a few other things that are mostly standard in nearly all decent mobile phones these days. BIG DEAL!! Talk about re inventing the wheel!!
I understand they have to innovate and make money and all that, but don't treat your customers like slack jawed inbreds! Then again... if you fall for it and rush out to buy it drooling enthusiastically... I guess you just proved the big boys were right... get out the dumb stick, its going to be busy!

ReplyDeleteMight it have something to do with the fact that they're only now developing the technology to better detect more precise movements??? Jeez. ;p
But yet that claim was there from the start!!! Moreover, why not release a 'mark 2' type controller instead of new Wii users having to buy an old controller and the new add on... I shall tell you why, Greed! I also personally believe that most tech companies hold back developments just so they can release the updated version and screw people out of more money. They call it Business as usual!! But is it fair and right?? Vote with your pocket I say!!
