this is why wii never got a AAA title, I guess Nintendo might throw more money in games this gen and finally get a AAA game

So I'm confused. Super Mario Galaxy isn't AAA? Xenoblade Chronicles isn't AAA? A COD port isn't AAA? And isn't the AAA bar for the Wii as far as budget is concerned set a little lower, considering development costs are lower?

If they were expected to sell well and bring in a lot of money then of course they're AAA.
