Nintendo wants you to have it your way, whether that includes tomatoes, onions, or protein-style -- but there should be enough meat for everyone. That was the gist of Reggie Fils-Aime's recent comments in regards to Nintendo's outlook on the future, which according to him, is all about user-generated content.

At the recent BMO Interactive Entertainment conference, Fils-Aime said that the era of "passive gaming" is coming to an end. He went on to outline Nintendo's outlook on user-generated content, both in past and future:

If you're in the entertainment business, any kind of entertainment, this is the game changer because no longer is entertainment a one way street of content created for audiences that just sit back and absorb it ... the era of passive entertainment is waning, active entertainment is where the action is.

While I do think user-generated content opens up wonderful new avenues in the gaming metropolis, I certainly disagree about passive gaming coming to an end -- it is a form of entertainment I will always enjoy, no matter what. It will be interesting to see how Nintendo would deal with a LittleBigPlanet-type title, however, as there are sure to be lots of less-than-family-friendly results when user content is allowed. I guess as long as everyone's wearing white and smiling, we can have a few penis drawings -- why not?
