First off - 3rd party lineup looks amazing, really. No denying that.
But otherwise I agree on many of the points. Its really weak of Nintendo to only release two remakes of old games in the 1st quarter of the year, following an insanely weak half year. I'm one of those who have always kept loyal to Nintendo (and hope to do so in the future) because Nintendo makes the best games on the market.
But "games" like WiiMusic are an absolute insult. Nintendo seem to don't give a fuck about people who kept the company afloat during the last 10 years, and instead they focus on new markets. They just released the same version of Animal Crossing for the 3rd time, and that was their big hardcore game for xmas. It's even marketed towards rich, white girls - which I guess would be insulting if I actually was interested in those kind of games. They quietly sent one of their few hardcore games of the last 6 months, Disaster, to retail with absolutely no money put into advertising whatsoever. Fatal Frame V is still only available in Japan. Wario Land was good, but hardly a blockbuster.
Still, I'm positive to the GC-remakes because I missed out on quite a few GC-games. The point however, is that they should never replace new, original releases. Nintendo better release FFV in february as already announced, and make up for the lack of new games by releasing quality VC-games. Where is Yoshi's Island?
