| Onimusha12 said: None of these developers seem to realize how starved Wii gamers are for decent third party support. If you even ported a GTA game from the PS2 onto the Wii it would sell phenomenally. It's money they're losing and money they're throwing away by not investing seriously in the Wii with proven franchises. The PS3 and 360 may seem like viable investments now but there's no garantee they'll have the legs the Wii will. |
Its true there is a veritable gold mine in the Wii that only a few intelligent companies have tried to exploit, look at sales of some of the third party titles, mario and Sonic, Resident evil, Rayman, have all translated into big bucks for the companies willing to make a game on the Wii.
Predictions:Sales of Wii Fit will surpass the combined sales of the Grand Theft Auto franchiseLifetime sales of Wii will surpass the combined sales of the entire Playstation family of consoles by 12/31/2015 Wii hardware sales will surpass the total hardware sales of the PS2 by 12/31/2010 Wii will have 50% marketshare or more by the end of 2008 (I was wrong!! It was a little over 48% only)Wii will surpass 45 Million in lifetime sales by the end of 2008 (I was wrong!! Nintendo Financials showed it fell slightly short of 45 million shipped by end of 2008)Wii will surpass 80 Million in lifetime sales by the end of 2009 (I was wrong!! Wii didn't even get to 70 Million)
