That's why Nintendo is pumping out quality, hardcore games like there's no tomorrow as of late. Oh wait!

Too bad such games are fast and iniexpensive to make, so it's reasonable for one company to pump them out constantly. Oh wait!

At least they put most of their resources and time into these types of games and they advertise them a lot, not to mention giving them a great push at E3 and relevate events rather than crap like Wii Music. Oh wait!

Because Nintendo certainly didn't admit that was done wrong last year, and promise this E3 will be better. Oh wait, they did, and you obviously have not been doing proper research.



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.

Plus, just for the hell of it: Kelly Brook at the 2008 BAFTAs

Reggie: "Price cut? Noooohohoho! We're going to raise the price!"

Nintendo Fanboy: "Thank you so much sir. We loves you omgzzz"

Reggie: "Now bend over."

 

Lol jk. Let's see if Wii sales begin to wane I doubt it.



^ LOL

I have to say... Reggie's definately the scariest looking out of all the PR guys for all 3 major companies.

Yeah, they had Cammie Dunaway, the puppy-loving idiot and Reggie, the I promise-all-deliver-nothing say so; they also said they have not abandoned the "hardcore" and that 3rd parties are backing up the system.

Anyways, this could go on forever, so, let's hope that you're right and this year's E3 is something to watch out for. I think we'll be dissapointed again. When you're getting more excited about 3rd party offerings by an ex-shovelware compaty rather than Nintendo itself on their own system, there's something odd going on.

Say that to Reggies face!

I don't see anywhere in the article where Reggie was saying/hinting Wii need games to appeal to PS360 owners... what did I miss? :x

He never says it, but I'm sure you will agree that he is talking about fighters, fpses, to some extent RPGs.


So Reggie is talking about fighters, FPSs and RPGs for Wii but how does that have anything to do with appealing to PS360 owners? Wii would be more appealing to all consumers by having good games in all genres and it's not just limited to PS360 owners. I'm not sure I got your point.

:P I'd like to know what you think my point is.

Recent 3rd parties that have been called for by the public are the "hardcore" games like madworld, conduit and others. Nintendo will not make mature games when 3rd parties can do it for them. PS360 represents half of the marketshare, and right now ps360 is outselling the wii.

Yes I am analyzing a bit deeper than the message, but there is a wealth of information in his words. For example, why would you make rpgs and fighters to appeal to people that do not own a console? That's not a very effective solution. But appealing to people that own the other systems who play rpgs...people that are already really interested in those genres.... that's a different story. A killer app in one of those areas is what sells consoles in the first place, so that's what I'm sure he's talking about.

However, you need a killer app to do that.

 



^I can't edit my post for some reason,
Imeant to write under the second part where ps360 is outselling wii, that these types of games are found abundantly on the ps360.



Sorry I don't have a link, but I remember reading that at launch the profit per Wii sold was much less than Joelcool7 says. I think it was somewhere around 5 dollars, which is still impressive considering that is at launch.

Anyone else here read/remember that? Joecool7, where did you get your numbers from. Again, sorry I don't have the link to the article.



If E3 has:

1. Breath of Fire 4 (Wii)
2. Megaman Legends 3 (Wii)
3. Jet Set Radio Future 3 (Wii)
4. Crazy Taxi (Wii)
5. Baten Kaitos 3/2 (Wii)

Anyone of those from a third party would make my month.

If none then oh well.
