Unless you REALLY enjoy family friendly titles. In that case,  its king.

i'm not feeling insulted at all. It surely is a weak line up, but i still have something to look up at (Conduit 2, Fast on wiiware and Chrono Trigger on the virtual console), while i'm busy with ds (dragon quest VI and solatorobo) and 3DS (DoA and Zelda).

and the second part of the year will be epic. just think about it: Zelda and Xenoblade are pretty much coming in the second half of the year. We know that The Last Story is coming too. then there titles that are coming in japan: pandora's tower, inazuma eleven wii, dragon quest x, earth seeker, rodea, rhytm tengoku wii, the new kirby game, fatal frame II remake. we should be getting at least some of theese. oh and there is pikmin 3. it should be time for that as well. there is a chance for tales of graces f too, and europe is still waiting for trauma team...

As others have already said - yes this lineup is weak, but:

1. I am certain the lineup for the rest of the year will look very diffeent

2. There are very probably more than a few good to great Wii games that you haven't played yet, many of them available at bargain prices.

For me personally I couldn't care less, even ignoring the 3DS that I bought, I have a serious backlog of Wii games I already bought  



Currently Playing: Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor Overclocked, Professor Layton and the Curious Village

Anticipating: Xenoblade, The Last Story, Mario Kart 7, Rayman Origins, Zelda SS, Crush3D, Tales of the Abyss 3DS, MGS:Snake Eater 3DS, RE:Revelations, Time Travellers, Professor Layton vs. Ace Attorney, Luigi's Mansion 2, MH TriG, DQ Monsters, Heroes of Ruin

Nintendo releases these lists every quarter, and everytime I read them I usually see at least one game worth buying, but for the first time there's absoultely nothing here that I want.

Not that Nintendo are alone in this, my Q2 is going to be entirely supported by LA Noire, and that's it.

The Wii is an older system and it already has an amazing lineup.

You should feel more insulted by the 3DS's current lineup.

i dont know y people r complaining about the lineup. its not like every game will be good or will be bought on other consoles. i rather wait a few months to get a good long lasting game on the wii than pay 60 bucks for hd game that lasts less than 10 hours. i still havent play my ps3 games yet cuz theres too much to play on the wii.

There's a little thing called research.

Sofware totals up to 2nd of April:

Worldwide: http://www.vgchartz.com/weekly.php

Wii 662,468,859

PS3 382,348,913

360 474,008,927

DS 669,411,553

PS2 226,800,953

America: http://www.vgchartz.com/weekly.php?reg=America

Wii 384,303,336 

PS3 187,917,867

360 317,409,561

DS 324,500,935

PSP 100,633,715

You can also see similar results in the other regions as well.

And before you try any "well combine the HD systems", I wil bring up budgets, which are far higher on those systems than the Wii, by factors of 2-4, while those combines sales don't even top the Wii by a factor of 1.5.



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.
