"Currently, in the western countries especially, war-themed gun-shooting games, which are not well-received in Japan, are very popular", [Iwata] said. "It is a reality that some of these games sell 10 million units per year in those markets, and this is one valid type of video game genre. I would personally feel sad if all video games became something like that, but on the other hand, I do not think such games should disappear."

I totally agree. They're fine for what they are, I guess, but I have very little interest in FPS games myself these days and would like to see more variety. (Hint, hint, Nintendo.) I personally haven't played a shooter since- wait, I've done this before, haven't I?

Well, anyway, I dared to take a peek down at the comments of that Kotaku article, and for once didn't immediately wish for planet-wide genocide against the entire human race. (That's saved for Destructoid articles.) Yeah, if Nintendo made a quirky FPS game, something in the vein of Super Smash Bros but a shooter instead of a fighter, I would totally buy such a game.
