Well, tough for them because they won't be getting it and if they do it will be due to multiplat (and most likely the weakest ports of the multiplat games like they already get). The only way they could get a little more would be by opening their coffers and giving some of the Wii profits to Western third party developers, but going back to the Nintendo Seal of Quality days that's not the way Nintendo operates (what I'm saying is they generally have demanded obeissance from the third parties, but the western third parties that are making up the largest part of development today want obeissance from the console makers instead).

And most of these Western third parties will be more interested in shifting their efforts to working towards the first next gen console to be announced (especially if its from Microsoft) rather than making Wii games.

You must be referring to Shaun White Snowboarding, which was "the weakest" if I am following you rightly. Also, now a Wii exclusive as far as the sequel is concerned.


      No, I was referring to 90% of the third party games out there that have higher review scores and much better sales on the other systems.  The first one that comes to mind would be Call of Duty 4 then Call of Duty:  World at War.

One wasn't released on the Wii at all, and the other ignores the fact that the Wii lacked the previous game, which was the breakthrough game.

, but  I don't think they've announced CoD4, this year's biggest game, for Wii either.

Fixed. There is no "exactly". You can't make evidence proving you wrong to be the opposite. In order for CoD4 to prove those games don't sell on the Wii, it would have to have BEEN ON THE WII, to not have sold well. It wasn't, therefore claiming "exactly" just shows you didn't pay attention to what I wrote.

And WaW on the HD consoles followed 4. In order for WaW to count as a reasons those games don't sell, it would have to have followed 4 on the Wii, and it DIDN'T.



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.
