@mowe, you have a NES avatar yet Wii has "crap" games....


Anywho, yeah, by January the 3rd party market shift will be massively in Nintendo's favor.

 

What does me having an NES avatar have to do with anything. What I was saying was, pretty much only crappy third party games sell on the Wii. You're blinded by that bright white of your Wii if you think otherwise.

But then again, maybe I'm wrong, maybe I'm just basing my assumptions on the sales (or lack thereof) of Zack and Wiki, Okami, and No More Heroes.

 

People always cite these same modestly successful games when they talk about third party Wii sales as if they were failures. They aren't. One of the awesome things about the Wii is that niche games like these can be published, sell a few hundred thousand units, and still make money for the publisher. Which is why you don't see point-and-click puzzle/adventures, radically stylized action/adventures, and insane parody action games on other platforms.
