| gawalls said: if the MP3 controls are part of their dev kit then fantastic!! to me personally I cant help but get the impression even though the Wii is getting a lot of third party support in terms of hours that seem to be spent on Wii development they're still not putting a lot of effort in. EA - everything they product has this dum down mode to it which isn't so bad but it seems to be at the expense of expanding the modes / functionality that hardcore users get. Konami - well they've just produced garbage so far, in relation to what they produce for other platforms. Capcom - a lot could be learned from them, I really hope they sell a lot as only if they get rewarded will others take from their example, even their RE4 port showed how it should be done. On the bright side though the 2nd wave of third party releases does look a higher level of crap than the initial third party support where ubisoft spout on about their effort but it's only cos they had no competiton at launch. |
#1 I don't think "MP3 controls" is something that is included in development kits. "Development kits are typically a set of development tools that allows a software engineer to create applications for a certain software package, software framework, hardware platform, computer system, video game console, operating system, or similar.It may be something as simple as an application programming interface in the form of some files to interface to a particular programming language or include sophisticated hardware to communicate with a certain embedded system. Common tools include debugging aids and other utilities often presented in an IDE. SDKs also frequently include sample code and supporting technical notes or other supporting documentation to help clarify points from the primary reference material." Wikipedia.
They are comprised of basic codes used to program games onto a system.
#2 Konami. Produce Garbage. Hell no. Elebits? Dewey's Adventure? Both great games. You have no idea what you are talking about
#3 2nd wave? Most third-party are just starting their first wave of games on the Wii.
As Darc Requiem said, once Iwata got in control, Nintendo third party relations have greatly improved. IF what you want is for Miyamoto to make games for third parties, fat chance.
