When will the "3rd party software doesn't sell on the Wii" argument die?

How long until Wii owners get tired of Mario and Wii Sports? It would take months not years to get tired of those things. And the best selling software over the past few years has been more grown up video games.

If your over 20, you can't help feeling like your playing a videogame designed for 10 year olds. Nintendo doesn't make M rated games, and if third party developers wont make games for the Wii, then the Wii has given us all it has to offer. It wont have a holiday season anywhere near this one if it doesn't get m ore games going up against the PS3 lineup.

 Its been about 14 months since Wii Sports was released? Most Wii gamers aren't tired of that yet.

 

Anyway let me introduce you to two third party games that are the most violent and gore-festish of this generation. Manhunt 2 and No More Heroes. Which console are those two on? You guessed it, the Wii.

In any case the best selling games of recent years (last two generations) have been:

	Nintendogs	Nintendo	1.69	6.24	8.46	16.39
	The Sims	EA	0.00	11.39	4.69	16.08
	Pokemon Ruby / Sapphire	Nintendo	5.41	5.65	4.13	15.19
	Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas	Rockstar Games	0.41	7.89	6.58	14.88
	Gran Turismo 3 A-Spec	Sony	1.89	7.13	5.85	14.87
	Grand Theft Auto: Vice City	Rockstar	0.47	8.20	5.53	14.20
	Pokemon Diamond / Pearl	Nintendo	5.56	4.33	2.97	12.86
	New Super Mario Bros	Nintendo	5.15	3.64	3.53	12.32

Grand Theft Auto 3

Take 2

0.36

6.55

4.69

11.60

	Brain Training	Nintendo	3.82	2.23	4.27	10.32
	Pokemon Fire Red / Leaf Green	Nintendo	3.20	4.23	2.81	10.24

 7 non "grown up" games and 4 'grown up' games. I think that kind of blows away your idea of only grown up games selling in recent years.
