Forums - Gaming Discussion - Has the Wii failed as a gamer console?

@jay520 i typed that wrong, i meant nothing goes above SF in that fighting genre, that s just me. I was counting on online because A. im not in a school or military environment anymore where me and my buds could easily get together and play. Like in theN64 and Melee days, and most of my friends have moved to different coners of the earth. The ones that i can play with either cant get away from COD and hate Wii or the other extreme, its one of my homegirls who bought it cause they wannted to get "in shape" with WiiFit.

Could anyone make a top ten or top twenty of 3rd party wii games?

It went from the most amazing phenomenon ever in gaming to the most forgettable console ever.  It's inability to gain 3rd party support and its lackluster technical specs  has shortened its life. There is no doubt it was a success, made Nintendo tons of money, sold numbers ever seen on a console. But in the End it was missing what made the PS2 great, Total support other than the company which made it.

"In video game terms, RPGs are games that involve a form of separate battles taking place with a specialized battle system and the use of a system that increases your power through a form of points.

Sure, what you say is the definition, but the connotation of RPGs is what they are in video games." - dtewi

I'll do


1.  Monster Hunter 3

2. Resident Evil 4

3. World of Goo

4. Okami

5. Little King's Story

6. Tatsunoko vs Capcom

7. Bit Trip Beat

8. Rune Factory Frontier

9. Sonic Colours

10. Megaman 9

 

I've pretty much exasted my 3rd party line up.  I couldn't really do a top 20 without clutching at some serious straws

Yeah and 2 are remakes, personally I have over 130 games for my PS2, and even some of its best games I prefer to play the PC version, so I don't have them in my PS2 collection. I think at this point in its life the Wii should definitely have way more quality 3rd party software, even though the Nintendo one  is mostly stellar, except Wii music that thing was utter shit.

Thx for the list!

Does the Wii have many blockbuster 3rd party hits like GTA and Assassin's Creed? No. But it does have massive amounts of underappreciated original titles that bring new experiences to gaming.



No matter how fanatic wii fanbase is, Wii will never be even as half as rememberable as the mighty PS2 is. Now that was the console that defined the whole era on video games.

Thank God! Things were starting to get stale.

Just putting my spin on things.

Wii had  as big an impact on this generation as PS2 did on last generation.
