Konami isn't ditching the Wii. MGS isn't their only franchise. There are rumors of a Castlevania Wii (though this is pretty much certain right now...) and Suikoden VI being on the Wii.

 

Dont tell it like its confirmed or its barely true, Castlevania was just a rumor, Suikoden VI is more of a wishful thinking like Kingdom Hearts 3.

 


Suikoden VI and KH3 are whisful thinking? I didn't know pure logic equals wishful thinking. And Castlevania is almost certainly coming to the Wii.

Is the KH3 bet still on? I don't know how many times I've said this, but the lead designer of KH1 and KH2 is doing FF13 Versus right now. I'll let you figure out what that means.


Nomura. Does. Not. Control. Where. Kingdom. Hearts. Goes.

All I'm gonna say. I'm not gonna argue about the "where will KH3 go?" bullshit again.


Whatever you want to tell yourself. If the same guy did the first 2 games, does another game of the same exact genre only on PS3, and there is no announcement for KH3 in the meantime (instead portable games were announced to give him time to finish Versus)... why wouldn't you want a cutscene-heavy game to be on an HD console?

Why would they ditch the wii?

The WW sales of the wii are far enough ahead to suggest an exclusive wii title would sell more on nintendos console than the competition

Install base for multiplatform PS3/360 games is higher.

 

Say that to this article:

http://kotaku.com/5010214/nintendo-wii-has-highest-software-sales-for-first-18-months

 


PS360 software sales rate is higher and the market is more cohesive when counting third party games.

Tease.

Tell what to a fact? A completely unrelated fact? Is it higher than PS3 and 360 combined?

Said HD console has crap sales in comparison to the Wii in the key markets of Japan and the U.S for this game.



Tease.

So yushire, want to bet that Kid Icarus and Castlevania are coming to Wii?



Any bet, as long as its not ban exceeding in more than a week, though I think banning bets is prohibited in this site so any bet you like.

 


Ban bets aren't allowed (do you get banned for taking a ban bet?) and I wouldn't take one anyway. One week Avatar+Sig control.

I'll even help you by putting a time limit:

Within a year a Castlevania AND Kid Icarus game will be announced for Wii. If not you win.

Dont have a sig/avatar though, can you just make a sig/avvy that I've lost the bet or if I've won can I have your sig/avatar in one week?

 


Deal then?

If I win I'll make sure you'll get a nice Avatar and Sig (maybe you'll even like it and will keep it after a week).
If you win you can determine mine for a week.

 

OK THEN... the said announcement will not be announced till July anyway.

 


Probably not, but if it will be announced at E3 you still lose. You understand that right?

If it goes anywhere other than the Wii, S-E needs a good solid punch in the face for being completely retarded.

By the time the games comes out the install base could be 3 times higher. Not to mention all the JRPGs that are finally coming in the next year.

Why, because it might be the only action RPG available? The other consoles will have a higher RPG install base.

Huh?

If I read those numbers right, the Wii is virtually on-par with PS360

For software, it is 50M vs. 50M
For hardware, it is 9.5M vs. 9.6M

And they don't include Wii Sports (or VC games) -- making it even more remarkable since I would think a pack-in decreases the need to buy a game.

PS -- Konami just did a Wiiware game -- Critter Corral. So they are supporting at various levels.

Even if there'll be Kid Icarus on the Wii I think there'll be no castlevania on the Wii, I'll betting just to prove that Konami wasnt serious on the Wii.

 



end of core gaming days prediction:

 

E3 2006-The beginning of the end. Wii introduced

 

E3 2008- Armageddon. Wii motion plus introduced. Wii Music. Reggie says Animal crossing was a core game. Massive disappointment. many Wii core gamers selling their Wii.

 

E3 2010- Tape runs out
