Reggie: Wii users don’t care about HD Netflix streaming 14 January 2010 at 7:30 pm by admin


As spotted by Siliconera , Nintendo of America boss Reggie Fils-Aimé recently told CNBC that users streaming Netflix through the Wii aren’t going to miss the HD content they won’t be able to access — free content that’s available through other devices .

The consumer is saying, for them, the quality of the visual is not nearly as important as the overall entertainment.” It may irritate 360 and PS3 proponents to no end to hear him lay it out that plainly, but we’re having a hard time finding a flaw in Reggie’s logic.
