Nintendo Fans Don’t Know What They Want

Nintendo Fans Don’t Know What They Want https://ift.tt/p2JzHkb Steve Jobs famously said, "People don't know what they want until you show it to them." But I sometimes wonder whether the late Apple CEO would have struggled with predicting what Nintendo fans want. I still remember the divisive online reaction to the initial reveal of Wind Waker at Space World 2001, when fans hoping to see a more realistic, grown-up Link on the GameCube were met with a cartoony, cel-shaded child Link (quickly dubbed "Celda") instead."
