| tuoyo said: no I don't think it will come later. I think 3rd parties lack business forsight and also lack creativity (Boom Blox aside). Wii forces them to be creative. They have to be creative with the controls, they have to have ability to maximise graphics out of the reduced power of the console and they have to be creative with gameplay. Most of all they have to blend all these together to match or come close to what Nintendo can do. But I don't see them capable of doing that and even the 3rd parties themselves don't believe they can come close to matching Nintendo. So I think they will just continue to focus on PS360 and rely on bringing out the same games they have been releasing for the past 10 years but with better graphics. It will be Nintendo's gain and 3rd parties' loss because Nintendo will be left to carnibalise software sales on the leading platform.

Haha, not much faith in the gaming industry huh? I get what you're saying though, Nintendo has brought the whole industry into its home court, one seemingly nobody can compete with them in - the battle of innovation.
However, it's not as if Nintendo is the only one making hits, as Guitar Hero is a great example of 3rd parties being able to come out with their own thing. Time will tell if we can expect anything from them.
