Dear Reader:
Nintendo's Rich Amtower - DSiWare titles ready for launch, not sure how often DSiWare titles will release, 'so much stuff' for the future
A portion of a Dtoid interview with Nintendo’s Rich Amtower…
Dtoid: Are you guys all ready with the DSiWare games at launch?
RA: Yeah, you know, it’s interesting. Digital distribution means once the title clears its final stages of testing it can pretty much go live right then. You don’t have that lead time that you normally have with packaging and all that. So yeah, everything’s looking pretty good for us right now.
Dtoid: Will you do a schedule cycle like you do with WiiWare and Virtual Console games? Is it going to be an every Monday type of thing?
RA: There is going to be a schedule, there is going to be a cycle, but we haven’t determined what it’s going to be yet. It depends on how many games we’re going to see coming out of Japan, how many games other developers produce for us. So that’s sort of up in the air right now.
Dtoid: Obviously, you want everything to be successful, but is there anything you think may not get the attention it deserves? Something you have hopes that people will catch on to?
RA: Oh, there’s so much stuff we haven’t announced yet…
