The signs were there to be read that the Wii was going to be massive, I remember reading somewhere that Ubisoft were all on board for the Wii the very first time Nintendo demo'd it to them, that indicates they were approaching third parties and if they chose not to visit LucaArts i'm sure there's a good reason for it.
The fact is 9 out of 10 of every third parties would have not backed Nintendo because of the Palystation brand name, EA admitted they were short sighted, hit the problem face on and their next wave of games reflects their new attitude to this with vast online options, fmaily play options, peripheral party games etc.
we all knew that the wii was going to be big and that's why I preordered mine as soon as the option was there and I got mine at launch, if Lucas Arts were following the masses with the PS3 then so be it but at least admit your own errors and learn from them.
Those people that think they're perfect give a bad reputation to us who are...
"With the DS, it's fair to say that Nintendo stepped out of the technical race and went for a feature differentiation with the touch screen, but I fear that it won't have a lasting impact beyond that of a gimmick - so the long-lasting appeal of the platform is at peril as a direct result of that." - Phil Harrison, Sony
