(The stick became the honeycomb! You’re not sure how it happened, but take it!)

In a recent interview for audience investment purposes Mr. Iwata commented on the rumored ‘Wii ish’ x-box 360 controller. It looks as if the man cannot be moved, as if he has never even heard about Microsoft.

“What matters to us is whether or not we can continue to constantly create and offer new surprises one after another. If we can, then (other company’s attempt to launch Wii Remote-like controller) should not be a big threat.

The efforts in this field to try to appeal to a wide variety of customers are something in which we saw potential early on and that we have been working on the longest, so there appears to be no reason whatsoever why we need to be concerned.”

So there we have it. According to Iwata, Nintendo has nothing to worry about. As long as they keep on trucking.
