Forums - Gaming Discussion - The best strategy to get third parties games that aren't on the Wii...

Buy a PS3 or a 360.  I mean seriously, most of us on here spend enough on games to justify buying a second (or third) console, so just suck it up, stop signing your petitions that no one will respond to, and buy another system.  I guarantee it isn't as hard or as painful as you think, and you aren't betraying Nintendo in doing so.

 I am sorry not every third-party is bringing [insert game here] to the Wii that is on the PS3/360, but some developers choose not to spread their resources too thinly when it could affect the quality of the game, especially their AAA franchises.  In the long run, you and I will both appreciate it that they chose not to water down the quality of the game by overextending themselves on the number of consoles the game can run on.



We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls.  The only thing that really worried me was the ether.  There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke

It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...."  Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S.

Since when has this happened. The only game that is really wanted by the wii hardcore user base is re5. The others are too small to make a generalization like that.



Resident Evil 5
DMC 4
Disgaea 3

Man, that was easy.

Resident Evil 5, Orange Box, Guitar Hero I & II. So that's 4, right?

All the petitions were made by the same person too. 



 

 

Where was the Disgaea 3 petition? I have never seen it if it exists.

I remember a petition for RE5 and Bionic Commando, but not one for either DMC or Disgaea.

I did find the petitions rather annoying at first, and I expressed that in the RE5 and Bionic Commando threads, but when petitions stopped popping up I got over it.

Wow, that makes 7 petitions!

Sigh, 7 threads of spam. What a waste.

-Edit: I forgot Bionic Commando! That makes 8!

Fair enough. Guitar Hero 1 & 2 isn't close to the same though and you know it. You also need to relearn your basic math.
