Goodbye Nintendo

GAME WEB SITECONTACT EMAIL

I’ve been working on Nintendo platforms for 5 years now. My last Wiiware game (Fishie Fishie) dis not sold very well and did not reached the « threshold » value (check news on internet to know more about that rule for Wiiware developer). That means huge money loss for me. Wiiware (and Dsiware) was a great idea, but unfortunately not a big success.Today I gathered all my Nintendo development hardware and  put them in boxes.I took a picture of everything. Maybe one day I’ll be back on Nintendo platform. I’d like to.

I got 1 Wii devkit, 2 Wii test unit, 1 retail wii (not on picture), 3 DS devkits, 1 DSi test unit, 2 retail DS, 1 retail DSi, and some cards for DS game testing.

Everything is useless now. Wow that’s a nice collection.

    The first question that comes out to my mind is: why did you buy 3 DS devkits instead of one?

  2. admin dit :

    Simply because we were 3 programmers. The kits have been use by 4 different people over 7 projects (some for me, some for others studios).

    Wow, the one on the left was mine i guess. Reading that you put it in a boxe remind me how great it was to work on my first games and provide me some nostalgia about it ^_^
