Never underestimate Nintendo, Molyneux warns

Peter Molyneux says Nintendo is one hardware release away from leading the way in games again.

"The problem with Nintendo is they did a fantastic job of finding these millions of new players with the Wii, and the Wii U kind of does that but also tries to bring in the existing gamers as well, so I think they may have lost their way a bit," he told IGN.

"But they’re super smart people, never underestimate Nintendo. They’re probably one hardware release away from something that utterly convinces us that they know exactly what the future of games should be."
