How is the chance of 3rd party games killing the wii a bad thing?  I would see this as an upside! Wii is already killing games for the 360 and PS3 by forcing game makers to make games at the lowest common denominator, this is causing gamemakers to have to limit what they do for other systems and making them leaave out advancments...Maybe the gamemaker resent this and want nintendo to pay. I mean the wii has 88mb of memory compared to about 512 for the other 2......Thats not the harddrive..which the wii doesn't have.
  1. Why am I feeding the trolls.
  2. Do you mean that just because Wii is selling good, xbox360 wont get another Lost Planet or Dead Rising? I think we can easily say that xbox360 can stand on its own legs.

 


 

1. I was asking myself the same question. Troll.

2. Multiplatform games. Gamemakers make games to the lowest common denominator...Jeez!



Predicting the Future - 360 Will get to 11 Million in the USA this year!!

Predicting the Future - Wii will NOT win this gen in America!!

Rayman is exclusive to the Wii? That's news to me!

 

Second, crappy 3rd party games sell horrible? I'd say all 3rd party games sell horrible.

Rayman - Wii - 375,250
Rayman - 360 - wtf? no sales data?

madden - 360 - 1,554,750 - 70%
madden - PS3 - 335,250 - 15.2%
madden - Wii - 311,250 - 14.1%

NFS: Carbon - 360 - 512,000 - 62%
NFS: Carbon - PS3 - 185,500 - 22.5%
NFS: Carbon - Wii - 128,250 - 15.5%

360 - 5,692,750 - 63% total
Wii - 2,107,500 - 26.8% total
PS3 - 1,160,500 - 13% total

Total next gen consoles: 8,960,750

Why on next gen multiplatform game sales... is the Wii at the bottom? The percents mean alot. Becuase the Wii has almost double the sales. It should at least be BETTER than PS3.


 some good stuff right there.

Still not want to answer my post about 3rd party sales on Wii Hus, are you afraid that you can't prove your point?

Having lots of 3rd party games are good, crappy or non crappy. PS2 had a lot of 3rd party games, and a lot of them were crappy. It comes with the territory.

 


Correct.

Well I do think that NFL 2007 on xbox360 and PS3 looks much better than the Wii version, or am I wrong?

Graphics wise only. If EA wanted to add more features that exceeded the Wii's memory the odds are they wouldn't add them. Lowest Common Denominator. Like how GTA4 couldn't be on the Wii because it takes more memory to run than the Wii has, so they have 3 options.

1. Not Put it on the Wii

2. Give the Wii  a cheap port

3. Massivly dumbdown the 360 and PS3 versions so it could fit on the Wii.

And if the Wii outsells the 360 and PS3 the odds are they do #3. Lowest common denominator, which is the wii. I am NOT trolling, just stating my view, if you can prove it wrong go right ahead. I have no problems admitting i am wrong when I am. I just think I am right on this,

Ok then I understand your point, sorry for my harsh words before, I am still a little bit angry on some player here that like to twist the truth and when you ask them about it they just ignore you. So again sorry.

No problem. I should have stated it more clear the first time. I can see why you misunderstood what I meant.

If Rockstar can do a GTA title on the PSP, it can certainly do one on the Wii. Not to mention the 4 PS2 GTAs.



Hardcore gaming is a bubble economy blown up by Microsoft's $7 $6 billion losses.

I know right. it's people are saying that the Wii is weaker than the PS2 is.
