Surprise! Microsoft Finds Nintendo WiiWare Strategy 'Confusing'

Microsoft's Chris Satchell, general manager of the company's game developer group, has told SPOnG that Nintendo's WiiWare strategy is confusing and failing to "empower the gaming community".

Speaking to SPOnG at the GameHorizon conference in Newcastle yesterday, Satchell said:

"I've been a little confused by WiiWare... The more I look at it, the more I'm confused, because it sort of doesn't really look like something for independents.

"At best it's what we would call a registered developer programme."
