Kinda dumb that they'd be promo'ing the version that will likely sell the least.

I'm tired of this, "Here is our next X360/PS3 game.......oh, and it's coming to Wii as well".

Given the recent sales of Sonic games on the various platforms, you'd think the promotion would be in reverse this time.

I don't understand why promoting the better looking version is dumb.

Show a pretty clip or screenshot from PS360 and say "Also available on the Wii..." should do the trick.


Because it's insulting.  It relagates the Wii as a second stringer despite constantly being the game winner.  Do you prmote a team mate that losesover the team mate that wins just becuse he has a prettier face?


Who says the Wii version will be best tho? Thats going under the assumption that what sells is the best. Toyota Corolla is not better than BMW M3 no matter how much more it sells. They are putting the best looking version on the promotion list...which matters for games as prettier game will sell more.

Now if they could market gameplay alone on websites and commercials then Wii may get the attention it deserves. That is always why they show people swinging the wii-mote in wii commercials...to show people the strength of the system.

On a different note, I'd love to see a commercial where a family gets together around the TV and everyone is smiling as they all pick up 360 controllers and start playing gears of war. Only Sega had the balls to make commercials like that in early 90's. :)
