In a bizarre twist to an otherwise exciting news day, during an interview today just following Nintendo's showing of its new Wii U system and games, company honcho Reggie Fils-Amie told GameTrailers that the sizzle reel of games shown today were not actually from the Wii U. Instead, when asked if they were from PS3 and Xbox 360 versions, Reggie replied "Absolutely, because we're talking a year away from when the console will launch."
It's a little odd that Nintendo wouldn't have any actual gameplay from the system to show off, but it's even more disconcerting that the company simply substituted other platforms to demonstrate what the console was capable of. Furthermore, when asked if the system will be "as good" as Microsoft and Sony's products, Reggie replied that they would... but then tried to refocus the conversation on the fact that the new Wii is finally a 1080p product. Don't want to take our word for it? Hit the source to watch the very long video (the Reggie clip starts 2 hours and 28 minutes), or listen to the audio below.
