Many of you continue to say japanese developers are alredy shifting etc ...but I still see no other thing that low cost productions being announced for the system.And Wii software sales ,outside some of the Nintendo flaships as Brawl and Wii Fit and Mario Kart ,isnt what I would call good.Most of the third party games are bombing really hard with a 6.2 million userbase ,in fact the PS3 seems to be doing far better with its 2.3 million userbase regarding core games.


And just one hint for those obsesed with past history to support Wii domination.History never repeats itself exactly.

 

Fatal Frame IV,Monster Hunter 3,Tenchu IV are just a few stolen exclusives heading to the wii. Then there is new ips like Fragile, Arc Rise Fantasia, Little King story, etc that are going to the wii. All of these seem to be of high production. I bet we will see more at TGS too. Also Dragon Quest Swords, a mediocre spin-off sold more than every PS3 game in Japan  except MGS4 with far less production costs. ToS Dotnw also sold more than many ps3 games in Japan, and is still selling, with far less production costs. So right now the wii is selling about equivalent to the ps3 in japan, but as the Userbase grows so will sales. With the incentive of smaller production costs, it is just about time before more Japanese third parties head way toward the wii. I think we should observe the sales of other games like Tenchu IV, and MH3 before coming to the conclusion you have. Oh and btw please mention some GOOD games on the Wii that sold bad in Japan, and target japanese gamers.
