An interesting observation about the Wii is that it has sold well despite game releases. That is, typically one would expect great games to generate great sales, whereas the Wii sells well despite the average game being well average (According to IGN the average Wii game receives a score of appox. 6.5 compared to appox. 7.3 for the 360 and 7.5 for the PS3).

To many this will be seen as a good thing and perhaps it is but at the same time this is perhaps undesirable for gamers. After all as gamers we primarily want to play great games and if the Wii sells spectacularly well despite the release of poor then it provides little incentive for great games to be released (why pay high development costs when you can cut corners and still do well?). Ideally any game system should be rewarded for great games (Through higher sales) and punished for poor games (Through lower sales) and I certainly do not believe that it is desirable for any console, regardless of manufacturer, to exist outside that reward/punishment scheme.

At some point you would expect that the Wii can no longer rely on potential and must rely on the quality of its game library. Perhaps that point is approaching now and incredibly high sales can only now be obtained through the release of consistently great software. As a gamer I can only say that that would be a good thing both for the industry at large and also for gamers who own Nintendo products.

So I wouldn't necessary argue that the bubble is bursting, rather that peoples expectations may be moving from the future towards the present and therefore the present library and games in the near future are driving sales more so than potential. And this could be a good thing.

That's why i said most of those games, not all of them...

Problem is alot fo those games you've listed in your edited list wont even break half a million or are multi format games.  Take away those and you are left with:

MySims, Dance Dance Revolution: Hottest Party, Zack & Wiki: Quest for Barbaros' Treasure, Battalion Wars 2, Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn, Soulcalibur Legends, Geometry Wars: Galaxies, Nights: Journey of Dreams, Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles, Trauma Center: New Blood, Rayman Raving Rabbids 2, Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games.

Microsofts and sonys 2007 and 2008 lines ups so far are much better than the wii's.

 Comparing Wii's 2007 list with MS and Sony's 2007 and 2008 list...  Well done... Thanks for the analysis.

And people keep forgetting about Animal Crossing... a franchise that has sold about 12 million copies with it`s last 2 games. Wild World is probably in the top 10-15 of software sales in Japan, and the upcoming Wii version should at least sell 5-6. That would probably be enough for Japan. And FF:CC will help, it seems it is going to be a real FF game.

Microsofts and sonys 2007 and 2008 lines ups so far are much better than the wii's.

From a hardcore gamers point of view, agreed. From a casual gamers point of view, hell no. And guess what, casual gamer are by far the biggest chunck of the market :)

No from now till the end of 2008 for ALL consoles is what i am comparing, im just using the games that were in the list already given for the wii, i know that list is missing mario galaxy, smash brothers, mario kart and animal crossing. Anything else THAT'S GOOD i missed? You can add all those games in and the 360 and ps3 still overall the better games coming out.

Dewy's Adventure, Donkey Kong Barrel Blast, Endless Ocean, Medal of Honor: Heroes 2,  Ghost Squad, Nitro Bike are not multiplatform games. They are Wii Exclusive. And Heroes 2 with 32 player mutliplayer is a Console exclusive vs. the psp handheld version.

And WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2008, Guitar Heroes 3, Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the Warlords, Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 3, Manhunt 2, LEGO Star Wars: The Complete Saga, Bully: Scholarship Edition are going to score a major chunk of their sales from the Wii edition.

 Note that these are only the september-december 2007 releases.

Yes i know what games are multi format and exclusive any games ive removed arent going to even sell 500,000 that's why i took them out, listing games that are going to sell poorly is a waste of time.
