Iwata Quotes?

[Update: Looks like this is a quote from MS’s Peter Moore not Iwata. Now that sounds about right.]

I’ve never heard any mention of Nintendo President Iwata bringing home the Xbox 360 to his wife much to her liking but Gamer Lounge is reporting that this in fact happened. They go on to quote Iwata as saying that he thought a “digital entertainment center” might be what’s needed to grow the gaming market. This seems counter intuitive though due to Nintendo’s “game only” stance. I can’t find any other sources but would like to know if this is true. Not that it would necessarily be a bad thing because major competitors like MS and Sony have to be doing some things right.

If true though, “loving an idea” and selling units in the case of the 360 is a completely different thing. But does Gamer Lounge have it’s facts straight?
