E3 2008: Reggie: Core Gamers Should Be Happy

Core gamers should not be dissatisfied with this year's E3 showings, says Nintendo of America's Reggie Fils-Aime.

There has been an tangible feeling of disappointment from many 'core' Nintendo fans in reaction to the company's E3 press conference yesterday, where the Big N undeniably focused more on their more casual audience.

Speaking to G4 afterwards however, Reggie asked fans:

"How could you feel left out? The Animal Crossing that we've been hearing about that people wanted. Fully connected to the Internet, go to other people's towns. Plus as I said, Grand Theft Auto on the DS. How do you feel left out with those types of announcements?"

"Make no mistake, Mr. Iwata said quite clearly: Mario teams, Zelda teams are working, they're bringing product out for Wii this generation. We're going to continue to bring all our best franchises to both of our key platforms and continue driving that experience both core as well as brand new consumers."

Was Animal Crossing and a GTA: DS logo enough for you? Let us know below.
