Nintendo may have the quirkiest games and the quirkiest platform, but that doesn't mean of America boss isn't "intrigued" by LittleBigPlanet, a cute and colourful, social sand-box 'game' presently in for the PlayStation 3.

The boss was quick to knock Sony, however, telling SFGate "I don't know that it belongs on their platform."

He also had an unusual amount of praise for Microsoft. "There are a range of first-person type games that are all very well done that could all do quite well on a Nintendo platform. Certainly, the trilogy - anyone who would look at that and say, "No, I think we could live without it," probably doesn't think real long about this industry."

He also highlighted games like BioShock, commending the developers for crafting more cerebral experiences, before admitting that he doesn't do too much gaming himself. "Not nearly as much as I want to," he stated when asked. "I travel with my DS. On the flight here, I was playing our new game."
