Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Wii is the 3th party dumbster and quick cash-in console, Booeh!!!

Wii is exactly like PSOne and PS2 in terms of games: Has LOADS of crap, but also has some very good stuff too. You can expect it to have some classics in the years to come, so my recommendation is to keep it.

And it's not stoping there, sadly. Cuzz most of these announcements have been made in the last 3 months... About the half of the games mentioned in here are even from this very week... XD... How worrying is that!
I'm gonna sell my Wii after i played Mario Galaxy, Super smash bros: Brawl, Metroid prime 3 and Mario kart Wii.
3 times Huraah to the 3th parties (and more or less to Nintendo too) for foking up Wii's line-up!...
Thank you... SO much!... / end sarcasm. I spit on you!

Don't look at the bad games when deciding which console you want, look at the good games. The first actually promising third party games are starting to arrive (Nights, RE:UC, No More Heroes), and there are definitely going to be more of Nintendo's kickass first party games next year.

We're probably not going to be seeing as strong a lineup as what Nintendo has during the next 4 months on any console for the next couple of years, but that's no reason to despair.



Hus is right, twesterm.

Once you put a casual game on the PS3, it is no longer considered crappy.
Something about fanboyism....



@ twesterm... Whahaha... 'stop bitchin at every chance i get?!'... I usually DEFEND NINTENDO U DUMBASS... But i don't like this casual trend. And yes... Im not gonna buy em. But thats why im waiting for Super smash bros Brawl. Metroid 3. Mario Galaxy en Mario kart Wii... And then, im gonna et myself an X360 and keep playing my DS!... And play my cube.

My point is. I dont like the way 3th parties threat the Wii... So don't act like im all hate and stuff towards Nintendo. Cuzz that would be a freakin lie.

Example: The system i own are:

Gameboy classic.

Gameboy color.

Nintendo 64.

Nintendo Gamecube.

DS(phat).

Wii.

DSlite.

 

So twesterm... Don't even ACT like im full of hate towards Nintendo... If u would read carefully and have seen some of my posts in other threads then u might understand the trend 3th party Wii games are heading... Towards crap that is. (But not for all like Resident evil and Zack and Wiki etc...)

 And yes... There are some promising 3th party games on the way like

Zack and wiki

Nights

No more heroes

Resi umbrella corp.

FF: Chrystal chronicles.

 

Etc... But you can't deny... That most of the 3th party games coming out are CRAP or CASUAL (for me its the same... For some of you it isn't)... But there are some gems between those games. Just look at the PS2 for example... Same thing.

As for the blocks game, a few things:
1) It's under EA Casual Entertainment-- what do you expect?
2) Do you see people bitching about Little Big Planet for being casual? From the little I've seen of this game, the two look like they're going to be fairly similar where they are just physics simulators with some sort of gameplay hook and a different art style. The big feature of both of them are also user created content.



LMFAo even mentioning LBP with that joke looking thing is crazy, lay of the drugs dude.

 


 So lets look at what LBP is:

  1. A physics simulator
  2. A level editor
  3. Sometihng you can share with your friends.
  4. Somewhat realistic art style

Those are the four basic things for LBP minus the gameplay (because I honestly don't know what it is, it would awesome if someone could fill that in for me).

Now, lets look at what Blocks is:

  1. A physics simulator
  2. A level editor
  3. Something you can share with your friends (confirmed multiplayer and assuming Wifi similar to Elebits and Dewey's Adventure).
  4. Cartoonish art style
  5. Puzzle gameplay
If you look at those things, the only differences are going to be the gameplay (assumption here) and the art style.  Now, unless I'm missing something, what's the major difference between LBP and Blocks that deserved a comment like yours?

Despite what you may think, this topic really is just flamebait for people to whine about whether or not they like certain games.

I actually think MySims will be a great game...tons of customization, great for Sims fans. I may even get it if it's deep enough.

I understand you love your Wii and you're disappointed in current 3rd party games...but you need to focus on making more balanced and fair threads about it...saying each of these games looks like sh*t and that's it won't do...sorry.



LEFT4DEAD411.COM
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 )

Nice to see that you made 2 topics of it. :)

Yes, it's "the curse of the most popular system". I wouldn't be calling Wii Fit and Wii Play as crap, Wii Play is one of the most fun gaming experiences in a long time. Can't say about Wii Fit, but after Play and Sports, i have high expectations. You know what you are complaining about? You complain about that you have something to choose from. The industrys core audience is the so called casual, which means that it's natural that developers make games for them. Even that Nintendo hasn't announced more traditional gamers games, besides the ones you mentioned, it doesn't mean that there wouldn't be more of them.
Anyway, we will be seeing 3rd party games to which have been put effort. I believe that you can count Nights in to one of them, and don't forget, that many have stated Sonic and the secret rings being the best 3D Sonic ever, which means that comparably there has been effort to that game.

But still, there are few too many quick cash-ins, but that's mostly because developers was caught their pants down with Wiis success and they had 360 and PS3 projects going.



Ei Kiinasti.

Eikä Japanisti.

Vaan pannaan jalalla koreasti.

 

Nintendo games sell only on Nintendo system.

I think StarcraftManiac follows in WiiGirl76/Onna76 footsteps. I can understand it. To be honest I'm not surprised at all. People want quality software. If Matroid 3  fails there will be big withdraw of Nintendo from core market. 
 
and yeah... twesterm went overboard with LBP...
