Nintendo on Wii U Pro controller: “We don’t want hardcore gamers to feel left out”

Posted By | On 31st, Jul. 2012

Katsuya Eguchi, hardware producer for Wii U, has revealed that they created the Wii U Pro controller -which looks like the Xbox 360- so that hardcore gamers wouldn’t feel left out. It’s also to make sure that multi-platform games won’t have any problem running on the Wii U.

“Adding a Pro controller may make it easier for multi-platform games to come out on the system.

“Wii remotes don’t have things like analog sticks. To make it as easy as possible to enjoy certain multiplayer experiences it was important to have that Pro controller.”

“We’re all gamers as well and we appreciate the interest of those [hardcore] gamers, and we don’t want them to feel left out, so we’re making big strides and changes in that area.”

So about that Call of Duty then. Tell us what you think in the comments section below.
