Salesmen have to be likeable, or else you're not going to want to buy their products. Nintendo struck gold with Reggie, who's a larger than life personality and grabs people's attention. The same goes for Sony and Tretton, though his shtick is the slightly nervous, down to earth guy that people can relate to. Microsoft are yet to find a guy that can't pretend he's not a complete cock for a couple of hours once a year.
To be fair, they are selling home entertainment devices, not performing stand-up. Why does everything have to be so personality driven?
Successful business man does not resonate with nerd shocker.

Then they had Moore, who I was also fine with, he was likeable, he clearly knew his games and had strong feelings on the subject. You can see that still now when he's interviewed about his job in charge of EA Sports, it's just as important to him, if not moreso, that each FIFA reviews well and people enjoy it than it sells a bit more than the last one.nickthegun wrote:The key word is 'selling' though.

Kirby is the man! Even if he wasn't, he'd just ingest and become one.
Not as nice as I used to be
LB, you really are a massive geek.

I loved MH3 on Wii, as you may recall - I'm sure we played together.
I've not payed much attention to the WiiU - does it have decent voice chat for online play yet? If so, a decent Monster Hunter game might make me splash out...

I think we only played once on Wii because I wasn't a huge fan. Don't get me wrong, it's a great game, I just prefer sitting playing as I watch (well, listen to) TV. Then again, with the Gamepad screen I could do that.
