Iwata: Wii Music has not achieved its full potential
Feb 6th 2009 at 10:45 by Ben Parfitt

Saturo Iwata, the boss of platform holder Nintendo, has admitted in an investor call that the firm’s recent release Wii music has not yet lived up to the firm’s expectations – but insisted that it’s day in the sun could still be on the way.
“I agree that Wii Music, as of now, has not achieved its true potential,” Iwata admitted. “It is unfortunate that Wii Music was not immediately appealing enough to some consumers, but it simply might have not been the right game for them.
“However, I would like you to recall the case of Brain Training software. Nintendo launched the first Brain Training software in May in Japan, and it was only around the time Nintendo launched More Brain Training at the end of the year, when the original Brain Training started to show explosive sales.
“Currently, I think that the appeal of Wii Music has not yet been fully conveyed and accepted by those who could be interested. We do not like to think that we failed with Wii Music nor that we should abandon sales support. I feel like we need to re-evaluate why the software (Wii Music) has not been able to clear that hurdle.”
