We'll see. I doubt it.
Wii Sports Resort was supposed to cause a large surge in Wii sales too but it never really did. I think what's happened to Nintendo is they have let the system flounder for too long in Japan without major releases and are now going to face an uphill drive and are going to have to work very hard to even get back to selling 25-30k on an average week IMO.
They had great momentum in 2007 and the earlier part of 2008 and let it slip away.
I have some questions about NSMB Wii too ... how long has this game been in development (really?)? Is it being rushed to market? Because it felt like they did that with Animal Crossing on Wii and that game didn't satisfy too many people. NSMB Wii better be a hell of a lot better effort than that. If it feels like basically just a DS game thrown onto the Wii with some new levels, I don't think that's really exciting enough to get people buying the system in droves again. It has to be *great*.
FF13, you can tell that's a game that's been in development for 3 years and really is going to showcase the PS3 as a system.
