What will happen when/if the Wii reaches 50% or more marketshare?

Absolutely nothing will happen. Generally speaking, third parties have already shown that they are dead set on ignoring the Wii, no matter how profitable it may be to develop for them.

You keep wishing real hard and maybe just maybe it will get to be true.

 

 

Don't misunderstand me.  I'd love to be proven wrong (and for the record, I await The Conduit with much enthusiasm).  It's just that I've seen third parties either ignore the Wii outright, or try to bury it in shovelware - for example, Ubisoft announced the new Prince of Persia for the PS3 and 360, even though by the point that announcement was made, the Wii had just surpassed the 360 in North America.  And then there's the empty promises - Valve, for example, has expressed interest in developing for the Wii as early as January 2007 as well as their distaste for the PS3, but the game score's still PS3 one, Wii nothing as far as they're concerned.  I know there's the lead time between development and release, but devs should have seen the writing on the wall early enough that we'd be hearing significant announcements by now.  I had believed that market circumstances would eventually dictate that they pay attention to Nintendo, but so far, that just hasn't been the case.
