Third parties pull a fast one and blame Nintendo for their own crappy games

The majority of games are sold by word of mouth. Cod4 is the perfect example of this. I never saw an advert for it on Tv. I knew I wanted it from videos on GT. Unfortunately, the new gamers the wii has brought into gaming are not the type that go to internet gaming websites to talk about games so they probably don't even know or care. These are not the type that know release dates, they walk to the store when they want a new experience and ask the store clerk for recommendation. Thus, the long legs of wii games. Also, many wii owners who are also fans of this genre also have a gaming PC or PS360, hence, the wii sales are dried up which I understand. However, this is also a justification for 3rd parties not to bring FPS games to wii.

As for other best selling ps360 titles like assassins creed, I really don't see how they could benefit from the wii's motion controls so it would boil down to graphics and power again (for things like # of people on screen) which would ultimately lead to the PS360 versions selling way more copies.

 

No it's not. It's justification for them to not expect gangbuster sales from downports.

 

Again, I'll get back to my original post, we just want some good games for the console. Not down ports, not up ports, not cheap lazy partyen gaems with toddlers on the case. Just some good, polished, quality games for the market that has been heavily neglected on the console. It's not asking for much.

 

But guess what? It won't happen any time soon, or atleast until they're near bankruptcy. As long as these third parties have people like you constantly defending their bullshit, it won't happen.

 

Why do you think they'll go bankrupt? Do you think that games like cod:Waw aren't making any money?
