49: System Fragmentation - a podcast by Thats Orange, LLC

The Wii U Pro Controller presents two problems: 1) It's just like the Wii Classic or Wii Classic Pro Controllers: the adoption rate is poor, nothing that works on it NEEDS to work on it, and we totally forget about it. 2) It actually takes off, and threatens one of the core value propositions of the
Wii U. Only Nintendo makes games for it, and 3rd parties just ignore it after a while.




Vinnk and Sean discuss the problem of hardware fragmentation in video game systems, and trot out some well-worn examples as well as more recent ones: the Sega Genesis 32x, Android's newest Ice Cream Sandwich operating system, and more!
