Skyward Sword might be Nintendo's last Wii title |

The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword will be the final farewell to Wii.
At Nintendo's E3 2011 roundtable discussion, it was said that Skyward Sword would be the last Wii title from Nintendo. Eiji Aonuma, producer of the Zelda series, echoed that by saying they've gotten all they can out of Wii.
"Well, Skyward Sword as a title in general is not about... It takes good advantage of the Wii, but it's really focused on motion plus functionality using your sword and your shield and the kind of tracking controls that are possible because of motion plus, not just with your sword but with a whole variety of different gameplay options that are all controlled by motion plus," Aonuma said. "It's a game that uses that as a central point of reference for gameplay and we really expand and iterate on that. As you mentioned, sure it's possible that this could be one of the last titles for the Wii from Nintendo, but I certainly didn't get the sensation that this is it - we've done everything we can. When making the game, it wasn't even something I really paid attention to."
"We just focused on really expanding with motion plus and doing everything we could with that feature since it was sort of the backbone [of the project]. But there's always more to iterate on, so gameplay possibilities will continue to grow regardless of system."

I really hate when journalists feel the need to twist words into a dramatic thing and then after reading the article you realize they're just trying to get you to read it, and the facts are actually different. Maybe they have aspirations of working for fox news...

I never cared that Carl made a lot of copy-pasta stuff as I'd get my news anyways (Even though it's not like it will ever make you a better journalist) But 4 articles about Zelda on the Wii all sourced from the same page, wow.
And seriously, being hostile won't exactly make people like you.

People complained about them splitting an article up into multi-paged articles, so they thought they'd pull a fast one by just splitting up the article as a whole. Trust us QJ... we saw what you did there and it's obvious that you're pulling a get-rich-quick-while-pissing-off-your-user-base-scheme. It won't work forever. I'm just glad I have no-script so all QJ's attempts to market me fall upon deaf ears.
While I do agree that Crait generally projects a negative attitude in his responses, he's 100% right here and I back him on this.
