HD console have big sequels to acclaimed franchises like God of War, Final Fantasy, Gran Turismo and Resident Evil on the horizon. At the moment, Wii just has nothing like that coming up.
You seriously think Fragile and The Conduit deserve to be mentioned in the same breath as those games?

Theres this whole argument about gamers only wanting sequels and its true.....Ive learned this in 1 year.

Why shouldnt new fresh IP get the same kind of treatment as these establish franchise? I find new IP a hell of alot more interesting than the 3rd 4th or 13th! version of a game.

I was reading up more on Mirror's Edge and Valkyria Chronicles for example then I was any sequel last year.

 

Because new IP's are unproven. It's not just Wii thing. New IP's have to really be pushed by the publisher (LittleBigPlanet, Gears of War) to compete with the heavy hitters.
Nintendo doesn't bother releasing new trailers and information about Sin and Punishment and Puch Out. Games don't get coverage if there's nothing to cover.
