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."

So it's not really world wide then. That's like me saying "I'm the supreme ruler of the world, excluding all of the land mass not covered by my feet."
side note though, I'm rooting for Wii and Ubi.

This "clever" title is confusing and misleading. It reads like EA is developing a console. "Wii" sounds like "we". Wii get it. Let's have an embargo on this homonym, please.
