I was just looking at IGN and there was an article about Space Channel Five coming to PSN/XBL. Xmen arcade is coming, as is Oddworld and Beyond Good & Evil.  no WiiWare though. I usually scoff at these evil 3rd party accusations but in this regard I cant see any other reason. It cant cost anything to bring these to WiiWare.  Your probably thinking( WTH do you care??? your a multiplat owner) i care because I want to give my PS3 a break i got like 6 gigs of space left I dont think I used that much on my Wii. AND most importantly im sure their is an audience on Wii who would enjoy this. Its not like having to make a retail game. THe game is done just throw the thing on there and would it be too much too ask if it isnt time released. I got UNO on PS3 and I love it but the PS3 crowd is not really going to be into that. I thought this would have been better on Wii, this game would be perfect for that userbase. Oh Wii got it about 2 months later after I had done bought it for PS3 (i might still get it for Wii, because UNO is becoming a ghost town on PSN)

the games on wiiware are limited to 50MB, and i am sure beyond good and evil is way more than 50MB

for teh last time, 3rd parties are not conspiring to doom teh wii.........

@cougarman  50mbs???? i didnt know the limitations are that small.  wow you cant really do nothing with that. Guess Ninty screwed themselves a bit in that area. oh well what are you going to do.

@evolution  if you read the post I wasnt saying that they were dooming them, i have never believed that, however now that i see the limits on WiiWare I know understand why the WiiWare doesnt see the stuff the PSN/XBL does and it further explains why most of the games suck IMHO

for it to pass, it have to get through a (sadly) VERY STRICT checkout from Nintendo , and also it have to be less than 100 MB (?) ,  and that isn't even enough for a portable game these days.

its not the third parties to blame, but lets hope Nintendo do it right on next console (or 3DS)

@severance  we can only hope It just kinda blows for Wii only gamers there is some great crap on PSN/LIVE I dont even have 360 and ive see some great crap in the limited time I spend at a friend's

This.

Its not a matter of cost. Actually the 50 mb limitation keeps many stuff from coming to the wiiware.

It's funny because at 1st the cap wasn't a big deal to most. Back then the cap was even lower for XBL.

@Goddbless  did MS raise their cap i assume???? Can Ninty raise their cap??? or are they limited by hardware. Cause alot games that are downable that are worth a damn your going to need more than 50mb

I doubt the original X-Men arcade was 50MB, games like Ocarina of Time are 32 MB, so it's possible to do great stuff with that limitation. Hell, Zelda A Link to the Past was just 2MB if I remember correctly, but there's nothing near that quality on Wiiware.

It's not a problem on space limitation, but a lack in quality and creativity from developers. That's the reason Nintendo just allowed 50 MB, so developers focus more on creativity, but sadly that's not the case with many of them.
