Ubi Says Wii Will Beat EA 61

Next Generation is reporting on comments from Ubisoft, indicating that they are heavily relying on the Wii to fend off advances from business adversary Electronic Arts. From the article: "Ubisoft vowed to stay independent [after EA made inroads to a buyout], and it plans to keep it that way. 'Our goal is not to sell to EA but to beat EA,' said Laurent Detoc (pictured), president of Ubisoft North America in a Reuters interview this week. He hopes that an early adoption of the Wii platform will help push Ubisoft up from the fifth largest independent publisher in North America to the fourth. Worldwide, the company is ranked fourth, although that excludes Japan."

    "Hurts the industry? How do you figure?"

    Gee. Let me just go pop ESPN NFL 2K7 from Sega into my XBox. Oh... wait a sec... I don't seem to have it.

    What do you mean it's never coming out? Oh, I see. Somebody leveraged their massive size to lock out the competition (and my favorite football game) by buying out the exclusive rights from the NFL.

Always draw your curves, then plot your reading.

Working...
