Well I suppose you're right there...it was just an idea and I don't write reviews so I don't know how the system works...
Also, as regards to the whole number of reviews per console thing, most sites have done at LEAST 1 WiiWare review in the past 6 months, I don't think this site has. Whilst anyone will tell you the Wii/DS lineup is inferior to that of the HD consoles, it still doesn't mean that when good games come they should be overlooked (a good example being Okamiden infact).
Like I said, I don't know how it all works, so it would probably be impossible to implement. At least user reviews are coming in though, so even if the staff can't write the reviews, they'll still be some for people to use.
There's always the option of adding more writers, but then it's possible the quality of reviews on the site would either dip or take excessive editing, or pay the staff per review, but then the site would lose money, and I believe that's already been mentioned...

No WiiWare games, but we've certainly covered plenty of retail Wii titles in the last 6 months:
Mario Sports Mix
Lost in Shadow
de Blob 2
Disney Channel: All Star Party
Super Mario All-Stars
Disney Epic Mickey
Naruto Shippuden: Dragon Blade Chronicles
Call of Duty: Black Ops
GoldenEye 007
Donkey Kong Country Returns
Sonic Colo(u)rs
Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II
Just Dance 2
NHL Slapshot
NBA Jam
Any 'good' retail releases missing?
You make it sound as though we're not reviewing anything on Nintendo consoles and neglecting them. It's absolutely not the case.
We're not going to use user reviews as official reviews. If it means a gap in the library (e.g. Okamiden) then so be it. All review sites have gaps. However, like I said earlier in the thread, we're going to be recruiting more reviewers (I actually just looked over an application that's likely to be accepted a few minutes ago).
P.S. Reviewers are paid by hits.

I thought you said reviewers were volunteers...
Also, if you must know, Kirby's Epic Yarn.
But I said right from the get-go I was fine with the number of reviews. It was other people who were moaning, and I was just coming up with a solution as opposed to just complaining. Otherwise nothing will ever get done.
I'm well aware that Nintendo consoles aren't getting neglected. It's because of a lack of quality titles, I get that. So I'm fine with that, but it would have been nice to get a Fluidity/Cave Story/Bit.Trip /VC review
