Wii U

Or a link.

Oh god, we have a new quote from Kotick? This'll be gold. I wonder if it'll be anywhere near his "We hope to exploit the popularity of this series year after year" or "We've pretty much taken all the fun out of making games" (both of which were said with pride).

That guy's only use is as a reference point for how terrible this industry can be sometimes.

"As you know, we were somewhat disappointed with the launch of the Wii U. I think it's a challenging environment this year, and one of the things we are concerned about is what the install base of hardware will be like for six-to-eleven year-olds.

"But we have a lot of confidence in the franchise for the longterm.[Note: He's referring to Skylanders, not the Wii U] I think we're delivering another great product this year."

That first quote is taken out of context pretty heavily. They were talking about the future of the Skylanders franchise as well for that.
