I hope Nintendo doesn't pull this crap again in 2009

Hmmm, I have to agree, but the problem doesn't affect Japanese gamers, it affects American ones. Let me explain it better, Nintendo of Japan is seeing low Wii sales, but not because of the lack of 1st party games, but because of the lack of 3rd party games, main franchises and core games overall. Still, the core Nintendo fan is pretty well attended and considered, with all of the 1st party titles released so far there and like 15 more games announced.

On the other hand, Nintendo of America is seeing record Wii sales, but the gamers and core Nintendo fans are the ones that feel left aside by them. Casual gamers are having a feast right now, but core gamers and Nintendo fans, not so much. Nintendo of America hasn't released or doesn't have planned many of the 1st party Wii games, such as Disaster, Fatal Frame 4, Captain Rainbow, Eyeshield 21 (Though that's a really Japanese game), TV Show King, Family Jockey, etc and NoA hasn't announced any of the games that Nintendo showcased at their conference, save for Punch-Out and Sin & Punishment 2.
What Wii gamers can look after for before June 09 is Wii Sports Resort, Animal Crossing Wii and maybe the GC ports, though they will probably get released Christmas next year at earliest.
Nintendo of America needs to get their act together and start considering the core gamers and longtime Nintendo fans again in the Americas. I know they are delighted with the sales and the money the casual market is generating, but ignoring the core audience is just stupid and releasing 1 1st party game every 3 months is very worrying, as it may seem that NoA is willing to depend solely on the casuals and 3rd parties. Thanks Reggie, not.

Thank you for explaining my reasoning a little better.

I swear Rol, you took the word "worthwhile" and ran with it. Then everyone wants to call me an elitist or something. Phew, I guess some people have NEVER seen my posts around here.
