Capcom gave Wii Monster Hunter Tri, RE4, RE:DC, RE:UC, Okami, Zack & Wiki and Capcom vs Tatsunoko and uh... Spyborgs But left Wii without RE5/6, DMC, or Castlevania (except WW) and ported a half-ass Dead Rising (not sure if that's a plus or minus)
Activision did alright bringing all but MW2 over to Wii from CoD, plus Goldeneye but that was it for core (unless you count Guitar Hero or the various Spider-man titles which were some of the best Wii ports actually). Sins include the unfinished Quantum of Solance and a lot of crap titles.
For Ubisoft - Red Steel 1/2, Driver PL/SF, PoP:RS/FS, Tenchu, No More Heroes 1/2, Splinter Cell, Rayman Origins, so more than Capcom or Activision, plus they gave Rabbids and Just Dance (love them or hate them, they helped define Wii). Of course they also gave us one of the ugliest ports ever in Farcry: Vengence, no Assassin's Creed and a whole lot of crap, but they were hardly alone in that. Plus they were brave enough to port Dog Island.
Someone will say Sega but although MadWorld and HoTD:Overkill were rated M and marketed as 'core' they were a 13 yr olds idea of mature. And someone else would have picked up Conduit. They dabbled in core and then quickly ran away. Sonic Colours was their highlight.
EA can hang it's head in shame as far as 'core' goes. But Tiger Woods and NHL Slapshot were brilliant on Wii.
I don't think anyone else is worth mentioning here. |
Castlevania is from Konami, not Capcom. Otherwise I agree with most of your anaylisis.
Ubisoft was a great publisher for the console in the west, just with No More Heroes 1 and 2 localization they won for me, but they own developments for the console were lackluster. You also have to include the Wii version of Prince of persia Sands of Time, that is also very nice.

Snap, what was I thinking with Castlevania. O_o
Ubisoft ported PoP: Rival Swords (two thrones) and created the excellent Wii exclusive PoP: Forgotten Sands (Hd version was different and rated lower) - which is what you're thinking of I believe - both of which I mentioned.
