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?

nope they were to cheap to make, super mario galaxy probably cost less than a game like haze and xenoblabe would have been a xboxlive or psn game if it was release on the HD twins
|
How much do Nintendo first party titles cost anyway?
|
5-7 mill for the big budgets but for the wii series I don't think they cost more than 2-3 mill to make. the average cost xbox360 and ps3 game is more than 10 mill

Wow. I believe what you're saying, but do you have some source for that? I always assumed their games could be made on small budgets. They show skill and talent, not big bucks. They don't even have voice acting. It's still amazing how they would spend so low knowing a game was going to sell millions.
Smart game design and above all talent. I admire Nintendo.
