Steven, I think this is about ports and casual titles, and I think that ties directly into quality. What I mean is, it's too risky to devote your top teams and invest major funds into a high quality Wii title when you can rely on the PS360. I'm sure if Ubisoft had the resources, they would go after the Wii market with fuller force, but they only have so many dollars and more importantly, they only have so many talented developers. They had to make a choice on how to allocate those resources.

 

And yeah I would definitely get a Wii if the Shenmue or Skies of Arcadia rumors came true. Hell, I'll probably get one regardless of those two games. The thing is, At this point the decision to get one is not really up to me considering I've only encountered one Wii in the wild (when I didn't have any money). 

How is it riskier to devote top teams on games of actual quality on the leading console that has lower development costs? Wouldn't it be riskier to flood the market with a multitude of shitty games? And pretending like they don't have enough resources? Are you mad? They could just take the manpower behind all 30 of those Petz/Babiez games and put out maybe one or two good Wii titles.

For a Wii game to bomb, it would have to sell like no copies. Even the notorious Zack & Wiki and NMH, often cited by countless Sony fanboys for not selling a bajillion copies, made all kinds of profit in spite of the fanboys.
