High Voltage – the industry is motivated by money
“I think that we, as an industry, have become dazzled by the bling. We’ve all got stars in our eyes for Hollywood, with twenty, thirty, forty million dollar budgets over night and hundred-person teams working for years on titles without ever running a P&L to see if anything could support that. There’re still a whole lot of companies that seem to just want to crap something out for the Wii and put all their emphasis on the other two less popular systems. As long as the 360 and PS3 are seen as the lead SKU, it’s problematic.” – Eric Nofsinger, High Voltage’s chief creative officer
We spent probably a good 30 min today talking to one of the developers of the Conduit about gaming industry, WiiWare, and other things gaming. You can find out what we learned in a post later.
