This is my first thread so be gentle.

I have a tricky question popping up and in my head up and then about the production values of game developers for all the current generation console. My point is that we see big publishers spent "crazy" amount of money to develop and advertise games like Assasin's Creed, Bioshock, Halo 3 which are good games not top but at least the best that this year is had on Ps3 and Xbox360. Then again you have games like Super Mario Galaxy, Red Steel, Excite Truck which are fun games but in no comparisson on the same level of production value than the games i refered to in the above. Now after the test year of the Wii and the Ps3 i believe we will see a shift of development for games more on the wii because of the user base the console have BUT we will ever see games on the wii of high production values like on Xbox360 and Ps3?

And i am not refering cost for HD graphics but in comparison in big production values for each consoles top.

Example:Playstation 3, 20.000.000  Xbox360,15.000.000 Wii,7.000.000

My question came up after an urgument i had with my fellow gamers on my gaming site because of the increased amount of shovelware and minigame collection on the Wii and the good games are only Nintendo games.  My friends say there is no chance of a good big 3rd party high cost production game will ever come to Wii because of the "casual" people it has on the console but i support the excact opposite and say that there is a chance to make this people try this games and become  "mainstream" gamers so the market will be wider than it is now like what the original PlayStation did 13 years ago.

Your opinion on the matter and no console war please.
