Yes, because he has preconcieved notions of what men do and like and what women do and like that are outdated. Ie, sexism.
As for this second conference, actually it ended up being Ubisoft focused, that is it was an Ubisoft WiiU event, Nintendo people just watched. They talked in detail about, and showed, two WiiU games, and talked a bit about a third. Ghost Recon Online and the newly announced Killer Freaks from Outer Space (the new IP FPS Ubi talked about yesterday) were shown in depth, and Assassin's Creed WiiU was mentioned. They also said Raving Rabbids would be on WiiU too, though that should be expected. The online and tablet features of the former sound decent -- they discussed how the online mode would work, and how they'd use the tablet. They couldn't discuss network infrastructure / network details, though, like if there'd be unified online, friends codes, etc -- Nintendo wouldn't let them talk about that.
Killer Freaks might be amusing... it's a humans vs. alien monster FPS, with some comedy elements and as the name suggests a B-movie style. Some screenshots are available, it's very early and looks okay but not great yet. It uses the WiiU tablet as a controller (though you can use a CC too), with the accelerometer and gyroscope aiming and the analog stick moving. It uses both analog sticks as well as the motion sensing, somehow, and the devs claimed that it was an improvement over regular dual analog FPS controls. I'd need to see more to say.
They showed a CG trailer and some multiplayer gameplay, in a mode where one player, with the tablet, played as an alien commander dropping in aliens, while the other, on the TV, played as a player fighting against those aliens. Cool.
Assassin's Creed they just mentioned briefly. They have a full team working on the game, and talked about some things they're thinking of using the tablet for. They wouldn't say whether it was a port or a new game, though.
Overall, decent roundtable. They couldn't answer many of the questions, frustratingly, but oh well, at least they were asked!
