We all know games sell consoles. And look what the Wii is getting for the month of Feb...

I think that's the point.. you see nothing..

Pasting seems broken.

OMG the pictures are here...

January and February for the Wii are absolutely terrible.  March isn't much better.  How come Nintendo can't get any releases on their console.  It is kind of sad. 

The situation is quite awful right now but I think that by releasing games like Xenoblade, TLS and probably Pandora Tower Nintendo is doing the right thing though. Of course those games should have been released at the beginning of the Wii lifecycle, and inverting a bad trend is very tricky if not impossible. Still releasing this kind of games is what the Wii need the most : if they managed to have a better amount of hardcore gamers, who in Japan are mostly JRPGs fans, then the third party support will increase progressively. And with DQX they still have a chance to make it way better if they continue this strategy. Let's hope for Nintendo's sake that this game will be released this year. Whatever they have to continue to release this kind of licences at any costs even if those doesn't make a lot of money at first. From a strategic standpoint in order to have a much better third party support in the future it makes a lot of sense imo and releasing Xenoblade 2 and TLS2 in the first years of Wii2 should be a big priority for Nintendo.

the sad state of 3rd party efforts on the Wii

"X"-generation games? Cool.

Man that looks sad. The fact that X-Box is out performing Wii this month in Japan is just sad. But Rune Factory is probably going to sell better in Japan then KillZone3. That being said PS3 is getting a version of Rune Factory as well, damn Nintendo lost the battle but not the war. Though I'd point to this as part of the reason a next gen console is going to be announced this year, software is slowing down and so it hardware sales, Wii is on its way down.

Also a bad february may be due to 3DS. Nintendo doesn't want Wii sales cannabalizing 3DS ones, they want those consumers to go out and buy 3DS instead of several Wii games. I'm sure this winter will see some strong releases!
