Activision: Competing With Everyone, Bashes The Wii

BigPimpJayQc | May 30, 2008 | News | Wii 
When the time of commenting rumblings or changes in the industry comes, some CEO's don't always have a good choice of words. This is the case of Activision's CEO Bobby Kotick, who during an interview with Gamasutra, qualified the gaming industry of "twinkie eating lifestyle" and bashed the Nintendo Wii Fit on the way.
"During an interview, Activision’s CEO Bobby Kotick sent a clear message to the three major console makers in the gaming industry and decided to insult one in his way out"

    Thats it? They consider saying "Wii fit doesn't follow tradition" a large amount of bashing? No one cares about Wii Fit. I don't consider bashing insulting some Tony Hawk game for the Wii that isn't even out yet, either.

    But whatever. The bashing the Wii part of this news title should be in fine print, he said 2 sentances that I had to read over again just to find where it's considered "bashing".

    Bashing the Wii Fit doesn't constitute as bashing the Wii.

    Heck, I'm a Wii owner and think the Wii Fit is an idiotic idea. Get a gym membership for a month - It's cheaper and will work better.
