Microsoft's Comment

Three posts today, don't miss the other two after this one.

Anyway, Microsoft's VP of Marketing (Peter Moore) commented on Nintendo's new controller saying, "We applaud Nintendo for their attempt at innovation." The nature of this comment has come under much fire and speculation. The basic consensus is that it is made to vainly attempt to establish that A) Microsoft is innovating, and inspiring Nintendo to do so B) To not look like an idiot if it works and C) Stab at the controller as a mere attempt.

A poster on Slashdot noted the following (A joke): Nintendo returned in kind saying, "We applaud Microsoft for their attempt at a console."

Touche.
