Kinect and Move each account for between 30-40 of those games for both the HD platforms, correct?  Simply put, the two HD consoles are getting a mini-reboot, so it's not too surprising that they're getting so many titles.  It IS surprising at how few the Wii is getting, though.

Why?  It's not like anyone buys games on the Wii that aren't made by Nintendo.

Rather than bust out the oft-published charts that prove otherwise, I'm just going to ignore you.  It's better for both of us this way.

Well, you'd have at least 3 days until he could respond, anyway...

Then I'm sure his answer will be very well-organized, right?


I'm pretty sure if I came back and proved my point, I'd get banned again for saying "bad" things about Nintendo. 

Which is a shame, since I love talking video games, but it's a painfully one-sided conversation when someone just hangs up the phone on the other end.  There's at least a history backing my theory whereas all Rol has in his thread is a blanket consipracy theory.  For some reason, it always seems to be assumed that I'm saying bad things about Nintendo and the fans.  I'm just pointing out sales history.

Hell, Nintendo saw the trend.  That's why they made the Wii to be vastly different from the X360 and PS3--they didn't want it to just be "one of the boys" with all the same games.  And they aren't, and they didn't.

uh-oh...

Wii

Metroid: Other M
Kirby's Epic Yarn
GoldenEye 007 (also on DS)
Sonic Colors (also on DS)

 X360

Kane & Lynch 2: Dog Days (also on PC, PS3)
Splatterhouse
Star Wars: Force Unleashed II
Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions (also on DS, PS3, Wii)
Halo: Reach
Castlevania: Lords of Shadow (also on PS3)
Rock of the Dead (also on PS3, Wii)
Fallout: New Vegas (also on PC, PS3)
Fable III (also on PC)
Rock Band 3 (also on DS, PS2, PS3, Wii)
Splatterhouse (also on PS3)
Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II (also on DS, PS3, PSP, Wii)

 

 

Games actually worth a damn to someone 

 

Thanks for the list. That was easy.  Cross-platform titles--I always go for X360.  Best controller, HD graphics, and ACHIEVEMENTS!  Those things are like crack.

To be fair, I'll probably get Sonic Colors on the DS because that's probably got a higher chance of being a fun Sonic game a la Sonic Rush.

Edit: Forgot to remove Mafia II. Reviews really killed that one.

Some of these are real stretches mainly on the PS3/360 side and a couple of those Kinect games but based off what I've been interested in, or heard others legitimately look forward to (I have no idea why people would be interested in Kane and Lynch or Kinectimals or Just Dance 2 for example but these have been called fun)

So as per usual the best combo is a Wii HD (Wii PS3 = 45  games) (Wii 360 = 46 games), if you have them all you're set like always (me!) (PS3 360 Wii = 50  games), HD only gamer (360 PS3 = 35 missing out on 15 games) If you're a Wii only gamer (Wii = 28 missing out on 22 games) if you're PS3 only (PS3 = 30 missing out on 20 games) if you're a 360 only gamer (360 = 31 missing out on 19 games) 

Feel free to copy this to make your own list and totals, based on your own opinion or maybe you feel you've seen people interested in games I didn't list, also thank you Rhonin for the lists to begin with.


You were trying to list games that people actually cared about? With some quick browsing I don't see Killzone3, inFamous2 or SOCOM4 on your PS3 list. I just thought up 3 quick games that people mention on the forums all the time and they're not there.

*sigh* did you read the thread?  Did you even read the OP?  All of those lists are for now to the end of 2010, there is no Killzone 3, there is no Zelda Skyward Sword, there is no Gears 3.

My mistake. Only indicator of a time frame was "near future". That's pretty vague.

Rhonin made the lists and it was to put actual fact in the thread instead of the vague statements the OP made, the OP said Wii had 40 vs 100, which wasn't true, the OP said near future which is typically within this year so the list was done to the end of the year.

MGS4 is probably the only game which will outsell it and fit my above conditions.  You have to agree it is a bit ironic given the Wii's general 3rd party support
