I wonder if these developers realize it was the fans that caused so many XBLA releases a month!? At first it was 1 game every 2 weeks and people complained the games weren't coming out fast enough. Even editors at IGN and Gamespot complained that enough games weren't being released. They said 2 games a week would be better. Well now it has changed and now the developers aren't happy. So it seems no matter what someone is going to be complaining.
IGN had a list of games that people wanted to see on XBLA last year. Keep in mind all of these games were remakes and they said MS would be smart to listen to fans and start releasing more HD remakes of these games because it is what the fans want. The #1 game was TMNT Arcade game, and it has been released with all the features the fans wanted and yet the developers are now complaining and people in this thread are saying "All they have to do is listen and fix what's wrong." Well that wouldn't help too much when fixing what everyone said was wrong is what got them into this predicament in the first place.
So now because everyone thinks Nintendo can do no wrong you guys think Wii Ware will be the best downloadable service yet? The same promises they're making with WW Microsoft made with XBLA and they had to change some things for the fans. Developers only want a few releases at a time and Nintendo promises to give them that. But what happens when consumers say they want new games at a higher frequency? Do they ignore the consumers to keep devs happy?
Love the product, not the company. They love your money, not you.
