Will never be like the PS2. It will not attract the most talented 3rd party developers, not now and not 2 years into the future. The platforms they are working on now will likely be the platforms they will be working on at the end of the generation, it doesn't make sense to retool for a different platform halfway through when they have established their tools, systems and franchises. |

Well, wasn't that the whole point of the post? The idea is it is support to make the system a haven for JRPGs and then move up from there. Many people have mentioned that the Japanese have already began supporting the Wii, but it is this game that will let it all tumble into the Wii.
The thing is the Wii should be the PS2. It should attract the most talented 3rd party developers. It does make sence to retool for a different platform halfway through when they have established their tools, systems and franchises.The reason is becuase Nintendop does not need 3rd parties, they need them. The industry and the drones have all beleive the 3rd parties as the controlling factor, yet everytime they are wrong. But.....they continue to think this way. Too many developers are going under or struggling. They continue to beleive this model is true and ignore the Wii. The reason why I have made the mention of this so often is becuase this is what the industry needs to do. They have to put their money where there mouth is. The games fail becuase they don't make them top priority. If they tried to make a game like Nintendo did, then they might succeed.
