Nintendo has released a teaser video of their new system and wild new controller. Danc from lostgarden.com offers a scholarly essay on Nintendo’s genre innovation strategy.
At first I thought the controller looked ridiculous and thought it would be a tremendous flop, however Danc’s article has made me reconsider. His article doesn’t focus on the new system itself and it is a bit long, but if you’re curious about why Nintendo would invest so heavily in an untested market, it’s worth the read.
I hope we talk about this in my Theory and Aesthetics of Video Games class.
