Forums - Nintendo - I was right all along... (Wii 3rd party support)

Heh, it tells you how much 3rd parties, especially Western ones, hate Nintendo.

And that´s why I´ll be very eager to see if 3rd parties try to abandon the Wii U, even if it´s having good/great sales, once the next Xbox and PS4 come out.

Right now, a lot of people seem happy the Wii U is also getting many 360/PS3 games (Arkham City, Darksiders 2, Metro Last Light, etc..), hey, maybe even Resident Evil 6 and GTA V!...but the real story, I think, will be when the next Xbox and PS4 are released.

Well, that's definitely part of it. Equally as big is if Nintendo supports it out the gate, unlike what it did with 3DS.

It's not like Epic Mickey 2 is a graphically intensive game.

But for your Call of Dutys and FIFAs and Assassins Creeds, the Wii just can't be the main platform since it will result in a poor game for the HD platforms.



@vgkingz exactly not to mention that those games would not be what they are today because the WII wouldnt be able to handle the stuff that the HDs can, so it would be mediocore games all around, nobody wins.
People seem to forget that alot of these engines that run the HD games were already being made or already done by the time Wii was even out, 3rd parties were never going to make Wii lead platform as that would have been more work. no matter the marketshare.

@superchunk deblob2 was a multiplat, all version were released the same day. Hell you might as well throw JD3, Zumba into the mix as well

Not True. CoD has proven that with the reduction in graphics and some special visual technologies, the same game can be implemented.

So they could have made Wii the lead and then added the necessary upgrades for HD twins. Modularization would be key and it would be effective.

As for other multiplats, thank you for the info.



Don't forget de Blob! And Resident Evil Chronicles!

At this rate, the next COD and GTA will be Wii-exclusive...

COD is a bad example, because its not like those games are pushing the boundaries of PS360 hardware anyway, not even close to the GTAs, ACs, Fallouts, Skyrims of the world. Battlefied, Crysis and KZ blow it out of the water in terms of visuals. ANd despite that COD still runs kind of crappy on WIi. Even if some of these games can be implemented, if they run like crap, what would be the point?s Just for some people to say they have it on WIi.
