Nintendo Denies Referencing Halo 3

Nintendo clarified the remarks made by UK boss David Yarnton. Here's what he said at the press conference in London:

"For all the recent talk of record breaking entertainment launches, it might just be that the defining and most influential video game of this generation is a simple game of tennis that the whole family can gather around and play and enjoy together."

Here's Nintendo's 'clarification:'


"We did not mention any games or other companies and it was certainly not a dig at anyone. We were merely putting Wii Sports into a wider cultural context alongside cinema, books and TV. We would echo the recent comments from our US colleague Reggie Fils-Aime where he commented the Halo trilogy was indispensable and a valuable addition to our industry."
