Havent really seen any 3d fighters do well on Wii, sales or reception wise. THen again I havent seen a 3d fighter on Wii worth a damn IMO

Well I have both PS3 and 360 and I don't give two shits about this game for some reason....For all I care it could have been a wii exclusive.

But I will side with the nintendo guys on this one, why not make an old franchise such as this not available on the wii? Its a fighting game and since making games are supposed to be cheap for the wii they should probably do it. It might not sell as much but they will definitely end up having more fans.

Except this is LOADS of games not coming to the Wii. That's pointing out neglect, not elitism.

Four years later means it's still being neglected, not that it got solved. Plus when the Wii gets an exclusive, there IS also complaining on the part of the HD people.

Don't even compare Namco to Nintendo.

Nintendo localises nearly all of their games.  Nintendo even steps in and localises games which were 3rd party in Japan (Dragon Quest IX, Ace Attorney, Prof Layton, Samurai Warriors 3, Herecles, etc).  Even obscure games which I never thought would be localised were released by Nintendo (Disaster DoC, The Last Window, Another Code, etc).  Nintendo still hasn't localised the likes of Excitebots, Soma Bringer and Mario Baseball, but that's an improvement on last gen.

Namco on the other hand has only localise a handful of Tales games for Europe.  We've only got Phantasia GBA, Symphonia GC (and that was due to Nintendo), Symphonia 2 and Vesperia 360.  Namco only localised one of the Xenosaga trilogy as well.  

Nintendo's localisation has come on leaps and bounds this gen.  Namco is still shit at it.

Whatever makes you feel happy. All evidence points out to fightning genre being almost non existant on Wii with exception of one Mario game. And if popularity of single Mario game was enough to create huge fanbase for certain genre all Wii racing games would sell milions now wouldn't they ?

Everyone loves to show PSP ports as proof they ported it to smaller system than Wii where it sold badly. But may i ask how many of you have insight into Sony development tools to know how hard such porting is ? Or how many of you know what kind of publisher deals those games had ? I'd say that the number of such ports shows there's some incentive to do them.

I wasn't disagreeing with you haha. I'm the same way with Street Fighter.

@Mr T-Tar

Nintendo was responsible for the Tales of Phantasia port too...

lol.  All evidence except for the stuff cited right above you (DBZ, Naruto, TatsuCap).

If we based PS2's fighter sales potential off MVC2, GGX and Death by Degrees, what do you think it'd look like?

Or Sonic Colors or Monster Hunter 3. Anything that's remotely good and remotely core on Wii tends to get a varyingly loud "just port it to PS3/360!" response

Sonic Colours? are you kidding .. I don't think HD owners care much about that. OR MH3.

We have a LOT of games to play, it's when something special like Mickey comes along, that we want it.

Seece there were meltdowns on VGC when MH3 was announced for Wii instead of PS3.
