Seems like Nintendo is listening to theirs customers, some selected WiiWare games will have demos starting this month. In a Q&A session with investors during a financial briefing last week, Nintendo CEO Satoru Iwata said, "As an experiment to see if we can expand our customer base by offering demos on WiiWare, we hope to run tests for a limited number of titles as early as next month." The briefing took place on the 30th, so he's presumably referring to this month. The reason Nintendo is trying out demos is to get more consumers "into" the Wii Shopping Channel site. Iwata added that he doesn't believe demos are necessarily the solution to the small WiiWare and DSi Ware markets. Said Iwata, "Unless we can give people a reason to go to the Wii Shopping Channel and DSi Shop even if they don't have business there, I don't believe digital goods sales will heat up."
