While Nintendo may be steering the wii around this mine, the question is will anybody be on board? It's still too early to know if third parties will actually put a significant amount of quality support on the wii, or if it will continue to pump money into games that will break even if they're lucky, and put minigame compilations, shovelware and port PS2 games to fund their larger projects that aren't likely to rake in much money.
I do hope things like XBLA and Wiiware will help keep innovations and gameplay alive as smaller companies can put out innovative ideas for cheap, and larger companies can take risks making quality budget titles without worrying about a flop. It would be amusing if those services put out more quality and innovation than their full budget counterparts this gen.
You can find me on facebook as Markus Van Rijn, if you friend me just mention you're from VGchartz and who you are here.
