The camera isn't locked. Well, at least not completely. Definitely less locked than 3D Land.

Nintendo could always do more, but if you constantly expect them to do more, you will be constantly disappointed. X and Bayonetta 2 already consitute more effort than what they've done for most of the Wii's life span. I was right to wait until 2010 to buy a Wii, for sure.

Retro Studios is doing what they want to do, according to what their president is saying. That, to me, is a very encouraging thing.

COnsideirng they have like NO 3rd party support I do expect more ffrom them. They need to pull their head out of fantasy land and realise most 3rd party will never develope on their platform.

The moment they realise that is the moment they can expand their own studios and create new ones to fill this void.

This. I think a lot of people are still in denial thinking that third parties are supporting this system. They're not. I would not be surprised if literally no third party games are released next year.

The industry has deserted it and what worries me is Nintendo don't seem the slightest bit fussed. They're just content with releasing slightly different versions of wii games, blindly assuming the mass market will return. Heads up, they're not. 

I don't want to come accross as a hater because I love Nintendo, but the company is headed in a very depressing direction. Rather than spending money and trying to release a top quality product with a wide arrange of games available, they're just trying to minimise expenditure and only releasing the bare minimum of worn out franchises with minimum risk.
