I feel a MASSIVE change in the gaming industry

I'm saying the games that third parties are making for the PC/PS3/360 are different from the ones being made for the Wii. Look at the vast majority of games being announced for the Wii (even newly announced games) and almost all of them have a casual slant where the opposite seems to be the case with the PC/PS3/360.

They really are seperate markets and I'm just disagreeing with anyone who is claiming that the Wii is suddenly going to start getting the majority of hardcore exclusives dispite any evidence of it so far. I'm not disagreeing that the Wii will get a lot of games, I think it will, but that most of them will be what we're currently seeing now and that is casual games.

This is a totally reasonable expectation. Legend isn't saying Wii games don't sell. Legend isn't saying that the Wii won't see increasing third party support. Legend isn't even saying that the Wii third party support will remain mediocre in quality; he's just saying that the Wii is going to get more of its style of games and the 360/PS3/PC is going to continue getting their style of games, and that this "MASSIVE change" isn't going to result in all the Halos and Gears of War and Metal Gears of the world appearing as Wii exclusives.

And he backs this view with evidence: there still hasn't been announced a major third party game with the sort of "grit" that the games mentioned above exhibit. His position is logical and well founded, people.
