kwaad: it's hard for me to believe you like Wii sports when you keep calling it a game for 5 year olds. And my response was when you put: boo. next to it on my list. I was responding to that boo. About their being more depth in my opinion, I meant in the experience, not so much in the controls. although I do think they'd sharpen the controls in boxing/golfing and baseball(more in the pitching) They'd obviously add something to the game, perhaps online features, tournament modes, more exercising minigames. They'd need to add something in order to call it a sequel. Alacrist: If I get the time to compose a proper list I will. The big problem with this is that I find with the Wii and Nintendo in general that third party support seems to pop out of nowhere, look at SSX:Blur or Godfather, we may have heard of No More Heroes a while back, but these other two popped out of nowhere and they both are upon us. So without a doubt it would be more speculitive . But again if I get time I'll try!

I agree, cause now that I think about it 3rd party support does seem to just pop up out of nowhere when it comes to the wii but it would cool if you could if you can't then that's cool too. And yeah for all we know there's a new capcom game for the Wii coming out in April that hasn't been spoken of yet.(Well, that's wishful thinking but you get the point)



 

  

 

n-space is also working on a title for nintendo.



Nintendo needs to finish Raven Blade it looked nice from with I saw on Wikipedia. Edit: Retro needs to finish it.



 

  

 

Doing one for third party support would take about 10x the effort. And Nintendo is still outpacing the rest of the industry in terms of known Wii blockbusters. The short version is this: Launch support for Wii exceeded Gamecube, while Q1 support was vastly superior on GC, due to a lot more multi-platform titles, and redundant sports titles. However, Q1 has also been the best period for Nintendo in terms of new support being announced, possibly ever. A great deal of what's been announced, though, are titles aiming for Q4 of 2007. Big third party titles for 2008 are likely in the works, but will be held for big press events.
