To the folks talking about 3P support on Wii...
10 of the top 40 titles in the UK this week were third-party Wii games. That's not 10 of the top 40 Wii games, but 10 of the top 40 games overall. In comparison only two first-party Wii games were on the list... MK and Wii Play.
360 and PS3 had 7 and 4 third party games in the top 40, respectively.
So the third party support is here, and it is succeeding. Wake up.
"[Our former customers] are unable to find software which they WANT to play."
"The way to solve this problem lies in how to communicate what kind of games [they CAN play]."
Satoru Iwata, Nintendo President. Only slightly paraphrased.
