Fischer: Only “Geeks” need more Wii memory

While over in Japan, Nintendo’s Satoru Iwata recognized that it’s the same core gamers begging for more memory as those willing to spend the money for a Wii storage solution, their European figureheads aren’t seeing things in the same light. Fischer essentially says the same thing, according to EDGE magazine, but labels those “core” gamers differently:

…When asked a pertinent question about the limited Wii system memory was raised, Laurent Fischer, managing director of marketing at NoE, easily slipped into talking about how “geeks and otaku” were the only people who want this issue addressed.

Journalists at the Nintendo preview event where I assume this quote came from were also told it was their job to spread the word about WiiWare titles, mostly through review coverage. In other news, WiiWare developers were seen marching up to the gates at Nintendo of Europe carrying torches and pitchforks.
