I agree some of these dev are still not taking the wii seriously just because nintendo added new audiences to the the mix and because it has weaker hardware (if what you say is true about the wii not being mentioned in that article you posted)

This is why i get so dissapointed when some major developers outsource wii versions of multiplatform titles to other third party devs like with the Force Unleashed, Guitar Hero, The new ghostbuster game, or Shaun Whites Snowbarding. or when they make cartoony versions for the platform.

Was hot, but not as hot as the Ubisoft's Quebec chick.
It looks like we will have to be content with some videos of hot girls instead of good games. I wonder if SE will show some random hot girl at TGS at their Wii booth.

@Gnizmo: Oh the kid that is also blind. Do you get sexually excited when someone names Capcom?

Capcom looking to go casual with sports titles

“As the market underwent major changes, we believed that it was extremely crucial for a Japanese game developer to swiftly organise a structure to create and sell hit titles overseas. We are also planning to expand the genre itself to address the needs of an even wider range of consumers. Our first strategy in this endeavor is to expand into the sports genre.” - chief operating officer and president Haruhiro Tsujimoto

This may mean that cheap games/shovelware will be on the Wii, just like Ubisoft is doing, while major titles will remain HD/PC multiplat?

What do you think?

 

I think they have done some research and found out what this "expanded wii audience" likes. So they will be making a nice profit with shovelware/casual games on wii.



I posted a piece of news and gave my opinion, but some haters, that obviously got nothing else to do will try to put me down.

Read the OP, haters. I asked for your opinions, I dont want to get lectured by some random people. This news is really relevant, and it could go anyways. I never said that it wouldn't favour the Wii.

Some people here get annoyed by some news, incredible. People have to have the same opinions as you do, or else they are trying to put Nintendo down...sad, very sad.

Man if only I got off on the name Capcom alone. I do thoroughly enjoy taunting people who over-react and try to vilanize a company that hasn't done anything majorly wrong yet. I get why you slam Take Two, Midway, to a lesser extent Square Enix, and some others but I will never get your Capcom hate.

 The problem is you immediatly take the negative spin on any and all Capcom related news. It is like you have some personal vendetta against them. They say more games are going multi-platform, so you ask if MH3 will still be released on the Wii. You reap what you sow.

@Gnizmo: Because of what they say mostly, SF4 producer, RE:UC producer, Dead Rising producer, Bionic Commando producer, Svennson (Capcom's PR and Community manager). All said that Wii was a casual console and that Wii owners don't enjoy complex games. But then at the same time every port and rehash is a "test" for Wii owners to see IF they will get actual support in the future.

Even Sven said that they are considering 2 HD games for the Wii, but that will depend on the HD sales, in other words Wii will be the one to save the day, but 2 years after their initial launch. And now they announce every major game will be multiplat, and they talk about 360, PS3 and PC. Where's the Wii? Other than their casual sports titles that they had announced.

after Capcoms first year supporting the Wii they're quickly going from Hero to Zero in my opinion.
