Many have had this discussion before.

It starts with "3rd party games don't sell well on the Wii"  and goes to "Hardcore 3rd party games don't sell on the Wii" and continues till "Hardcore 3rd party games that I like don't sell amazingly well on the Wii"

Just stop and don't waste our time.

 As for the 'casual' games, you should be praising them. Every gamer starts out as a non-gamer, then becomes a 'casual' gamer, before graduating to 'hardcore'. The first game I ever played was some hilariously bad Mickey Mouse game for the original NES, and if it wasn't for that game I wouldn't be playing games now. In 5-10 years, you're going to be seeing a huge surge of girls who started gaming on Horsez find their way into the market as adult, 'hardcore' gamers.

 

you graduate from Casual-gamer to Core-gamer, not hardcore. A hardcore gamer is a true gamer, some one who set out to master the games he plays. A hardcore gamer is neutral gamer who has no console preference.

 

 very well put.

I really dont wat, Games like wii fit, selling 6 milliions and metal gear solid in less than 3, i really would dont like than developers stop making games like metal gear because easy games sell millions more, just like wii music will do.

 MGS has a limited fanbase...Wii Fit does not.

Imagine developers saying "why to make a game like metal gear with a limited fanbase, if we can make an easy game than can sell much more" that exactly what i am saying.

Let's all be honest with ourselves, after the MASSIVEMEGAFAILURE that was the Cube, did any dev expect Nintendo to dominate this hard this gen?


Now they are. And because of that, more heavy hitter mega hits will come to the Wii. Those who are pessimistic about it, must've never like the Wii, or Nintendo for that matter, to begin with.
Why would games like,"mega Hits" come to the wii when 3rd party games dont sell well on the wii?

 

 

 

good guess

Well I would be very sad if the Wii kills the hardcore gaming market.

Your post ended in futile so you only wasted your time...

Obliterator, you can either shut up and listen or end the conversation, The point is just that. 3rd parties didn't expect this from the Wii, therefore, they are going to the drawing board and plan to take some of the Wii's pie.


p.s- 3rd parties are selling more on the Wii than you think. It's above the Ps3 at least.


So, your posts "faillzzzz".

Obliterator, why in the hell do you say that our posts end in "futile"? It's like we are in a star wars movie. Are you darth vader?

Did you skip all your classes in highschool? As for my question, most 3rd parties will be going multiplatform...

of course the Wii didn't directly contribute to the demise of getaway and eighty days , good job of taking my words out of context though , other factors helped as well.

But if the PS3 was at 30 million eight days and getaway would still be in development , Sony would likely be making a profit with the ps3 and 3rd parties would be licking Sony's shoes.
