With Fatal Frame 4 on the Wii now, do you think the Wii T-P floodgate opene

I hope it will result in a publisher for Sadness, since that was the first horror game anounced for Wii and its concept looks superb.

It will take a while before 3rd parties shift resources and most of the AAA main series won't make the step yet, if ever (Resident Evil, Castlevania, MGS, Final Fantasy, etc) because these require long development.

But what we see happening might be just as good or even better than these 3rd, 4th or XIIIth game in a series. The Wii is getting a number of new games that look like potentially good to great games. Most of them have something original. No more heroes, Z&W, Project O, all new, fresh possible great games by 3rd parties. Something we haven't seen on a Nintendo console for a while (this level).

I might add that NiGHTS could have been released on all consoles since it is not using motion, still Sega chose Wii, R* puts its most violent game on Wii (and PS2, but almost everyone agrees Wii version is way better), Soul Calibur Legend looks promising, Ghost Squad and RE:UC bring light gun shooters to your living room and FF:CC:Crystal Bearers is probably the next Final Fantasy to arrive, and the first impressions were that it is a serious game unlike its older Cube brother.

So a lot is already happening in 3rd party-land. There's more then those 4 extremey popular series (MGS, FF, RE, GTA)
