| Diomedes1976 said: I dont see that list as specially good . Other than some games that have to prove their value you have the usual crop of Mario games ,Metroid about the same of the Cube incarnations ,and the casual games of the DS as Brain Training etc that suit best for handheld gaming (poor performance of BT its first week in Wii in Japan ).Even the hardcore games as Resident 4 and Umbrella Chronicles are getting dumbed down and made simpler and easier to appease the casual gamers the Wii is aimed to . Besides ,having out Mario ,Metroid ,Zelda and most of hte Nintendo franquises right in 2007 that leaves them with only Fzero along some light hitters for the rest of the lifetime of the console . |
How many Grand Theft Auto, Gran Turismo, Metal Gear Solid and Final Fantasy games were released for the PS2? Why can Nintendo only release one version of a game for one of their platforms?
Anyways, as I have said before Nintendo's top selling game on the Gamecube hasn't been released for the Wii (Mario Kart) and they still have a lot of franchises that they can release in 2008. Donkey Kong, Starfox (regular or adventures), Kirby, Mario Kart/Tennis/Golf, Pokemon, F-Zero, and Pilot-Wings are all million selling games that have been released on home consoles; on top of that games like Advance Wars, Golden Sun and Wario have been amazingly popular on handhelds and could (if well developed) become good console games. I also expect that late 2007 and for most of 2008 Nintendo will focus on new franchises that take advantage of the Wii; consider that in late 2005 and through 2006 the DS dominated largely because of sales from Nintendogs and Brain Training which were new franchises designed to work well on the DS.
