Has Nintendo's Efforts to Entice Third Parties Worked Against It?

This is so true based on the shovelware present.

But i do think there is really a large chunk of stdios and devs that simply aim to make games like bioshock, uncharted, gears of war, alan wake, heavy rain etc. that really just have a huge passion for the art of what they do and the things that make those games great just simply arent possible on the wii technologically, not a knock.

Granted, one could argue they could simply diversify and create innovative art on the wii but as mentioned beforetheres a deeper situation where you have all of these devs that make their bread and butter with all the tech for the PS3 and 360 and wed have to wonder if a lot of the things they do for a living would be underutilized on the wii, for instance, physics, lighting, coding.....they may be in a position where they feel to dismantle the teams and talents they have to span out and be innovative in the sense of the wii wasnt worth the sacrifice.

I think its a much deeper issue than ignorance.

Except those games aren't the greatest ever, not by a longshot, so the argument that they are passionate about the art doesn't really hold, now if you say they are graphics whores, who need the crutch of HD then you have an argument
