No Blu-Ray Player on the Nintendo Wii U
It seems like Nintendo arent going to make a competitor to the PS3 blu-ray player on their new Nintendo Wii U.
Why did the company take away the convenience of being able to watch a movie on the same player used for playing games? Gaming site Kotaku quoted Nintendo president Satoru Iwata:
“The reason for that is we feel that enough people already have devices that are capable of playing DVDs and Blu-ray, such that it didn’t warrant the cost involved to build that functionality into the Wii U console because of the patents related to those technologies.”
