At least in Japan, Wii has became a platform that no one wants to develop for, save rare cases. Home consoles are dying in Japan, almost all new announcements this year were for the PSP or the DS. Wii hasn't been getting almost any game, while weekly, the DS and PSP are drowning on big announcements.
I honestly see no future for third parties on the Wii in Japan, neither do I see them making games for PS3 or 360, but on the other hand I also see little to no future for the Western developed games, since most of them end up on the HD consoles. Wii is honestly screwed this gen. Tough luck I must say.
What makes my blood boil the most is how no Japanese dev is willing to put their games on Wii, again, save for a few exceptions.
