No 3rd party games for Wii in 2010? I think not.

[cAPSLOCK]

Actually 2009 was a breakout year for 3rd parties. There were more great 3rd party games than the whole previous 2 years combined: 2.

Silent Hill: Shattered Memories.
Tiger Woods PGA 10

As much as people like to talk about video games as art, no one is going to dump millions of $ into art. Video games are an investment with an expected return profit. It's a business. If you know beyond any doubt a HD brown and bloom infested semi-competent FPS is going to sell, guess what you're getting every 2 weeks?

For as much as 3rd parties cry like little bitches with skinned knees about how games don't sell on the Wii they haven't put out a grand total of 2 good game between the whole lot of them. RE:UC worked so now we have a billion rail shooters, WiiSports blew gaming wide open, so yes we're going to have a million minigame collections.

Video game makers are not artistic or visionary people--they're talented monkeys dancing for the marketing department. If anything, this generation has proven at least that much. Sure, it's entertainment, but so is masturbation.

I for one don't care if the Wii keeps the reputation that games don't sell on it, make a good game and I'll buy it, but don't think calling your festering pile of worthless shit game something like a "guided first person experience" makes it anything more than a festering pile of worthless shit.
