Wii games can be good. In fact there are good Wii games, but they are few and far between. The problem is that soon Our games will become Their games. I.E. they will influance what games are made, not us, the gamers.

 

I really don't want game devs trying to please my mother over me.

 

 

Just watch once the Wii has over 50% market share things will start to change.

There's your answer in the bold.  Pure selfishness.

You know what?  My mother loves Mario Kart Wii, Wii Sports, and [watching me play] Twilight princess.  So please devs, continue to make games that please my mother.   

 

No...just No... i dont want you're mom playing Final Fantasy XXXIII when i could be playing it, get my drift?

It's not my mom's fault if you don't own a Wii.

In a nutshell, because some people think the dominance of the wii sales-wise will lead to more bad games and less good games. In reality though, its largely because those people dont have wiis and dislike other consoles *winning*

The Wii was my first current gen console. I'm really terrfied that within a few years 75% of the games that come out will be utter tripe. Why would game devs take risks on expensive HD games when they can crap out a flash game port? This is a serious matter that we are dealing with, and you people refuse to acknowledge it. The more influance the Wii has over the industry the more serious this problem becomes.

 

 

The game industry is slowly turning into the movie industry....

 

But that is my point! The movie industry makes movies for you and other different for your mother! And there's plenty of them!

I don´t mind watching again good movies the same way I won't mind replaying Zelda TP one of this days!

In my case I will like the industry trying to satisfy me with one damm good and different game a year, not 12 generic shooters that I will just play once and never grab again...

Most hardcore gamers are selfish and they think that they are the only people that are allow to play games.

 

No. Everyone can play our games. We just don't want OUR games becoming THEIR games. Ya dig?

Agreed, 100% none of our HD games should go to wii in our opinions because then theres a good chance it wont go HD therefore we have a big problem.

@Bolded- And thats whats scary. D:

 

Well, it seems that somebody is dealing with the problem i just described. But, sorry, I dont get it. And I am not playing dumb, I swear. What do you mean by "our games become their games"? Publishers, as far as I know, can handle more than one game at the time, so they can develop games for you and for your mom. And since she didn't use to buy games before it is a whole new business. She is a gamer too.

Can you explain yourself better? Are you saying that there will be no more GTA's, Halo's, Gears, God of War, Gran Turismo, Final Fantasy, Zelda etc, etc, etc after the Wii reaches the 50% marketshare?

PS360ForTheWin on 03 January 2009

its simple, some people fear change, if people like things as they are, then they will see new things as a threat to that.

Personally, when i first heard about the Wii i was sceptical, but after playing on my mates a few times i came round to it, and know i own a Wii and several games, that said i still enjoy my PS3 and 360 just as much, to me the Wii has expanded my gaming ability, it has introduced me to more "casual" games than i have played before, the one complaint i have about the Wii is the lack of shooters, hopefully games like "The Conduit" will address that though.
