A podcast on Dutch site Bashers sent to us by a reader shows that Paul Naber, Director Home & Entertainment Division at Microsoft Netherlands does not have a high opinion of Sony's support of Move.
During the interview, Naber says, "I'm convinced that Move for Sony is, what we call, fudding. Fear, Uncertainty, Doubt. They don't give a shit about Move, but it takes the wind out of Kinects sails, or it could."
Interviewer, Samuel Hubner Casado apparently then asks, "What Microsoft did with HDDVD?"
To which Naber apparently responds, "Voila! Exactly the same as we did with HDDVD and Blu-Ray. When people are unsure of a new technology, they won't get on board. And that doesn't bother them as far as Move is concerned, because they don't care about it anyway. But if people get on board with Kinect and it's a runaway success, then they'll have Wii on one side, Kinect on the other and of course they will lose."
Naber then continues "Simple, I mean, I still think their response, last year, was "Oh sh*t, Microsoft is onto something, we have to pull something out of the cupboard quickly, let's get developers up there with even stranger lollipops! But if you look at how far along they are, what kind of support they have and things like that... They're launching in September with how many titles? I think it's too vague for words."
Before finishing off with, "Yes, I do worry about it because Sony is very -- I've worked there for five years! I know what they do! Dropping the price even though there's no stock, why? Because you know your competitor will stop selling. They are really good at that, at Fudding."
