Yeah who needs games like Metal Gear Solid, Final Fantasy, Devil May Cry, Silent Hill, Street Fighter, Soul Calibur, Call of Duty, Orange Box, Assassin's Creed, Bioshock or Resident Evil when you got these.

And here I thought the days of Nintendo fans digging through the scraps of unremarkable third party support to feed delussions that things might actually change for the Wii had passed. Shame on the OP for getting people's hopes up with this thread's title.

Even if these games are good quality, they won't get advertising and won't sell. Maybe someday third party developers will make games for the Wii that aren't barely PS2 level graphics.

Yes, my god why weren't 11 games that were in development 1-2 years before the Wii was even released on the Wii. Developers should be canceling all their current projects and moving them to Wii, and if they don't and make new games on Wii instead they obviously hate it, and we should condemn them!  Oh and when they do (Monster Hunter) it doesn't count right Onimusha?

Your stick got old months ago.  Your senseless rants are not doing anything, and it's pretty sad that you are too busy complaining about games to actually enjoy them.  


Those games were examples of good third party support, not what the Wii should get in spite of obvious limiting circumstances. Oh but keep telling yourself these bargain bin offerings are the god send we've all been waiting for and that I'm just pining for games that we all know damn well aren't comming to the Wii. I'm sure that's so much more convenient for you to believe rather than accepting maybe I have goddamn good point and your only defense here is reciting, "If you can't say something nice than don't say anything at all."

I'll remember next time that  only positive comments are allowed on this site.

Entitlement?

Allow me to simplify, I am not saying the Wii deserves the example games listed, I'm saying that those are examples of good third party support, things that people should be excited for, games that get commercials, games that get sales, games that more than just a handful of pathetic internet Wii well-wishers care about and then get defensive about it when someone like me comes along with reality to rain on your parade. 

Though if I had to come up a reason for entitlement, just for shits and giggles, maybe damn near 50% market share and record breaking sales as the most successful console in video game history would be grounds. But shit, what do I know. I'm just a malcontent. Let's all break the bank and buy all five consoles so it doesn't matter what games are released where. Screw integrity, as long as the game isn't Nitro Bike let's all tell ourselves its a great game.


No one (or very few people) are saying these games are automatically going to be good.  That's ridiculous.  Just as ridiculous as saying RE5 or SF4 will be automatically good.  You can never completley judge quality until a game is released, but hoping said games are good, and anticipating them, is hardly stupid. 

The really stupid thing is you constantly flip-flop between what you want so that there is no way anyone can win.  If it's high quality, but low budget (Zack & Wiki) you complain it's not real support.  If it's high budget, but not a franchise you care for (Monster Hunter) you still complain it's not real support.  You are looking for a reason to complain.  It's called being a pessimist, not a realist.  

Other people say "I hope this will be good" you say "I don't care it's not real support."  You refuse to actually give these games a fair chance because your default point-of-view is so negative that you can't believe anything could possibly be good that's not a sequel to a franchise you've known for 10 years.  Hell, even when it is (Tenchu 4), you still complain.  You may have thought you were being cleverly sarcastic, but you are just a malcontent.  You have yet to prove yourself even capable of providing a "realistic" opinion on anything.  You are so caught up in your dark storm cloud of doom that god forbid you actually enjoy gaming. 


 

Am I finding reasons to complain or are you just trying to find reasons to act like everything is just fine.

How are my opinions unrealistic? Its a fact that third party developers are only giving the Wii minimal support with small projects and questionable quality games. Sorry I don't feel the same need as you to paint every single game given to the Wii by someone not Nintendo as an effort on par with the major projects being put on HD consoles.

My opinions are those of why this is by and large a no win generation. HD gaming has forced a limitation of games that can be made and a focus more so on pre-existing franchises which now have become such expensive endeavors that risks need to be eliminated to ensure profit returns. Meanwhile the Wii is given unremarkable support with games no one really cares that much about. This third party support you say I shold be content with for the Wii would have just been ignoreable shovelware last generation on a console like the PS2.

I'm sorry my reasoning is too complex for you. Let me break it down for you.

- Third party games are being handicapped in the number that can be made, the lack of new franchises or titles resulting in a bottlenecking of gaming all due to the dynamic born of HD gaming.

- Third party games are suffering on the opposite end due to the Wii where companies don't even put enough money into them to make a game that's above PS2 standards.

- Don't mistake my discontent with this dillema as actually suggesting the idea that things can in anyway be changed for the better now, I've given up on expecting change. But forgive me for not being upset when people say things like, "THE DROUGHT IS OVER".

My opinion is fine, it asks nothing unreasonable as it asks nothing at all, the only problem is your inability to stomach anyone's discontent with anything this generation. All you can do is offer the hypothetical, "Oh these bargain bin games might be the good games and the big budget titles might all suck and not sell." Even I have more faith in an artistically castrated big budget projects than what third party developers think the Wii demographic wants.
