| oni-link said: I've had it with ungrateful 3rd parties on the Wii!!! The Wii essentially funded most of Ubi, Capcom, EA, and Sega's HD games until they became a viable platform (well more on PS3 than 360 as the latter became viable after a year). Third Parties are still doing this like in the case of Sonic Colours which will get a port to HD systems depending on how successful the Wii version of the game does!!! |
I think the worst "use Wii to fund HD projects" offenders are Ubisoft and Capcom.
Sega usually is a good player, they gave us The Conduit, Madworld, House of the Dead: Overkill, and are bringing Conduit 2 and Sonic Colors to us. Some games sold pretty good (Mario & Sonic) some others didn't but they keep releasing decent to good games for the console with effort behind them.
EA doesn't know what to do, they bet on the wrong horse, and the usual Nintendo player doesn't buy a lot of simulation sport games, they made some tries but not with the kind of games that people were expecting and the "release another version every year" didn't worked either, cause the Wii user only want one boom blox to play with their friends, or one Fifa edition to use when some friends come by, or one complete version of Tiger Woods. They never really tried, and could not "use Wii to fund HD projects".
