Forums - Gaming Discussion - Not enough Wii 3rd party support? Another 13 games coming...

HappySqurriel on 27 February 2007

Kwaad said: Space Station Tycoon - Other than the fact NOTHING is known about it. It's also on the PSP at least. MySims - barf SSX Blur - 8.0 Godfather - I'm not sure what's so special about the Wii version. the PS3 version uses motion as well. Tiger Woods - Vomit. (I hate golf and golf games) Zorro - I cant recall a good Zorro game. Godzilla Unleashed - Cant recall a good Godzilla game either... Scarface - Meh. Manunt 2 - Meh. Prince of Persia - Good. Medal of Honor: Vanguard - Meh. The Bigs - I hope this is porn... Because if it's not it should be renamed. Basically there are 2 games I would like out of that. And one is coming for the PSP... at least. The 2nd is just another version of a multiplatform game. So really, nothing exclusive there. As for those games. Ever heard of less than 25,000 sales EACH. Those make the Wii's 3rd party support look WORSE.
Well, these are games that are being announced outside of a major press event ... most of which are going to be sold in the slow half of the year (Q1+Q2). Shovelware, albeit awful games, are typically a good sign for the health of the system because it means a lot of (crappy) developers are seeing the success of a system and saying "me too".

Kwaad ssx blur's highest rating is 8.5 and lowest is 5.0 so far. Check it out on the SSX Blur thread. You have to remember you can't base a score off one website. Also, all those mehs don't count for anything. So what if you don't like it, it doesn't mean it's going to be bad. Godzilla for the cube was good.

Hey look everybody, IGN has lots of information about Space Station Tycoon Wow, that guy really knows how to gush over the Wii



I'm a mod, come to me if there's mod'n to do. 

Chrizum is the best thing to happen to the internet, Period.

Serves me right for challenging his sales predictions!

Bet with dsisister44: Red Steel 2 will sell 1 million within it's first 365 days of sales.

Thanks stof, that article is the reason why I put the game on the list. Kwaad, let's not really compare ps3's motion controls to the Wii especially in a game like Godfather. See for yourself: Youtube Godfather Video And Godzilla: Destroy All Monster Melee was an awesome game, I used to play 4 player all the time. Ign also gave it an 8.4. As far as Zorro I don't have high hopes but to comment on the history of Zorro games is a bit unfair as this is only the second console Zorro title in recent history.(not quite a superman, or Fantastic Four horror...yet.) The Bigs is a baseball game, but it's focus is a little more arcade fun style as opposed to the serious sim style games.(think Blitz, although I'm excited to get more bat swinging at of my Wiimote, the first thing I did when I got my Wii was play the homerun derby in Wii sports, and I was waiting for a game like this.) I happen to agree with you on manhunt, scarface, MOH, and Tiger Woods but nonetheless there big franchises showing more support for the Wii. Personally I can't wait for Mysims, and I hope it repeats the success of Sims and animal crossing. If Red Steel can crank out a quarter million in sales just over the holidays I think titles like SSX and Godfather will manage more then 25,000. Oh and I forgot Driver Parallel Lines

yay Mario Party 8! I honestly can't wait. My friends are getting it...although I've heard talk of delay...I was at EB Games today and their list says June 1 for a release date...I'm rather confused. And Mario Party sucked on the GC, so I'm guessing most people are wary of this one...I actually have no clue. A lot of the minigames will be expectedly gimmicky, but I know it will be lots of fun with my friends.

Bet with disolitude: Left4Dead will have a higher Metacritic rating than Project Origin, 3 months after the second game's release.  (hasn't been 3 months but it looks like I won :-p )

Probably just because there might be a bit of Wii party game fatigue. I'm sure once it's out it'll make a lot of people happy.

I can't think of a better platform to make a truly excellent Zorro game than the Wii at this point. I'm waiting for the first good swordplay/light sabre/whatever title, because after playing Wii sports it's obvious that the system could make this type of game great. Sadly, Red Steel wasn't that game. Wario Ware: Smooth Moves actually came close to reading a slash correctly in a minigame, but it was only one slash. No More Heroes looks like it might be the first, hopefully the controls are done well enough. If so, I'll buy it no matter how much blood and violence goes into it.

MySims will come out on Wii and DS first, so it's quite an exclusive. And if it's really as big as The Sims the Wii and the DS version will sell 5 million copies each. @stof: Thanks for that SS Tycoon link!

Mario Party 8 is delayed, or at least I heard so, rumors about online play is coming (just rumors don't shot me if I am wrong). AND Mario Party was fun on the cube (mayby not all five or whatever they made) Thanks for the link about space station tycoon, might be fun to pick up (is a little bit space mad). MySims can be a hit, I mean Sims is selling tons. Tiger Woods could be nice, I have a friend that is going to buy a projector and play goal



 

 

Buy it and pray to the gods of Sigs: Naznatips!
