Nintendo has bold ambitions for the Wii U. Released just yesterday in the United States, Nintendo's first high-definition console is aiming to reshape the way consumers not only play games, but also enjoy entertainment. It's a lofty ambition, but after the Wii took the gaming world by storm, betting against Nintendo does not seem to be the wisest move. Bill Trinen. To get a deeper insight into Nintendo's plans for the Wii U and beyond, GameSpot caught up with Bill Trinen, director of product marketing at Nintendo. Talking to GameSpot from inside the Nintendo World Store in the famous Rockefeller Center in New York City during Nintendo's Wii U launch event Saturday night, Trinen spoke at length about the Wii U. Of note, this interview was conducted just after 9 p.m. on the evening of Saturday, November 17. We're now two hours and fifty minutes from launch. What's going through your head right now? (Laughs) It's been, obviously, a really long haul since we first showed [Wii U] at E3 2011.
