Koller Talks DSi, Not Sure If It’ll Appeal To Folks Over 12

Nintendo announced its third DS hardware revision earlier last week, the slimmer, lighter, camera-equipped Nintendo DSi. It’s been making waves in the gaming community ever since. What do the folks over at Sony think? Are they at all worried that the multimedia features of the DSi will give Nintendo a stronger competitive edge against the PSP? Here is John Koller’s take, who heads up marketing at SCEA:
I can see the DSi being successful. The DS lite was obviously very successful. Will DSi do well with [the DS's] demographic? It probably will. Will it be a product that expands their user base [beyond] under 12? I’m not sure.
Nice jab there. Er, wait… with the DS market nearly saturated in Japan, it should be obvious Nintendo has an audience that is well over the the age of 12, no?
