I see where you are coming from
here is a list of million reasons (well not that many) that you always hear from 3rd parties.
1. Only Nintendo games sell well on their consoles.
2. It makes it hard to port to Wii as the gap is so small. for PS360 we like oyu know consider it as 1 development. The risk is smaller that way for us. Where as for Wii it is one console and risk is Bigger.
3. Nintendo are to harsh on game standards and won't let us publish games (this was true back in the old days of the N64). Now look at the Wii lineup?
4. 3rd party thought Wii would sell like shit and got caught sleeping and put all their resources onto HD, becuase of this investment they comign up with stupid reasons like Wii isn't powerful enough, the hardcore crowd is on the HD consoles. Yes this is true but how can the Wii get a BIG ENOUGH hardcore croud if there are no HARDCORE MAIN STREAM GAMES on it.
I think this will be hard to achieve on WIi that now most hardcore gamers have multiple consoles.
5. Wii is for kids and casual blah blah blah lets make a crappy game and get the profits for HD dev.
6. Waggle controls suck balls. Because you know NO ONE KNOWS THERE IS LIKE A GCN AND CLASSIC CONTROLLER OPTIONS.
there is plenty more things that they have said as excuses but I don't remember at this stage.
The above are the ones that keep resurfacing.
