| Squilliam said: The numbers were just the categories VGC put them in. I couldn't be bothered spending an hour sorting them. You could say the Xbox 360 has both a comparable and absolute advantage in the genre for example. To keep it short and sweet, you have it backwards. The Wii needs to give a disproportionately good level of sales to the more average titles before a greater level of investment will be given. Thats what indicates there is a market which hasn't been satisfied. This doesn't mean people won't keep trying, it means that the good developers will remain stationed on the safe bet consoles in those genres. |
Yea, I understand that they were where VGC put them I was just saying in general I'd be curious to see.
I just don't see why Wii owners have to settle for average. You can make a good game without a colossal budget. I don't feel comfortable spending $50 on an 'average' title just because that's the only thing available to me. Maybe I'm alone on that fact.
Honestly, I don't know. There probably isn't a large enough hardcore market on Wii at this point. I bet many left in the first couple of years. So The Conduit? Too little too late. The Wii probably needs its own Halo to recover now. Maybe a Hardcore Starfox FPS? At least we can guarantee that Nintendo will continue to develop for the Wii :p, and they make the games we really want anyway.
I'm just not ready to give up on the prospect of the Wii catering to more mature tastes. I guess EA is. At least we can have EA Sports Active 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 etc. Yay?
