OK, Fair enough. I posted this is a previous thread:
"I actually think this is a very healthy, and quite possiblydeliberate. Third party developers have always complained that they can’t compete with Nintendo’s own games; that whatever they produce will be lost in Mario’s shadow.
Now they have a clear shot and some of them are definitely stepping up to the plate. Mad World, Conduit, COD (if they don’t screw it up again),Red Steel 2, Castlevania, No more Heroes 2, two Star Wars games and the other new third parties coming out will get the attention they deserve.
These are games that would never come from Nintendo and the road is wide open. A good “hardcore” game faces less competition and has a larger potential audience. With 30, 000, 000 out there it doesn’t take a very high attach rate to start ringing up some numbers.
There are more games in development than most people expect, especially the games in the works to use motion plus but needless to say, you won’t hear about most of them until just before release because there is a vacuum waiting to be filled and someone is going to hit the first one out of the park.
In other words, the critics, always looking for some ray of hope want to have it both ways. Nintendo is making too many core games so that third parties have no chance or Nintendo is not making enough core games.I think the upcoming third party games are very exciting and I think Nintendo is deliberately not crowding them out.
Besides if you had been paying attention you would know that the Wii is built on making "experts" look like idiots. Acording to them it was going to be DOA.
