This rings a bell. I remember being stuck very early on a Gamecube prince of persia not being able to get past a jump. In the end I just gave the game out to my nephew. I had read that it was a very good game but I never got to see it. On topic I only just heard the news but I have to admit it does make me worry. I am worried that despite going to end up winner of this generation by far Wii is never going to get the huge block buster 3rd games it's market position deserves. Nintendo decided to be very different and it has paid off big time but by their 2 rivals being so similar and having sales close to each other it has an adverse effect on games that come to Wii. I almost wish Nintendo could have taken a huge huge risk and increased production to like 5 million a month last year and cut the price of Wii (to like $150 - I'm sure they would still be making a profit). If this had happened and they had been able to sell that amount a month they would have a market share way way over 50% and developers would have had no choice but to move major games to Wii rather than PS3/360/PC. But of course business doesn't work like that and you can't just take chances like that. |
I think these 2 games was Nintendo's answer for the core gamer crowd that even core games can make it to the Wii, I dunno why Nintendo ditch these 2 games in the last minute especially project hammer
end of core gaming days prediction:
E3 2006-The beginning of the end. Wii introduced
E3 2008- Armageddon. Wii motion plus introduced. Wii Music. Reggie says Animal crossing was a core game. Massive disappointment. many Wii core gamers selling their Wii.
E3 2010- Tape runs out
