I really cant see why those devs are complaining, if they could match Ninty's effort in making the game and promoting it with nice budget it would definately sell well. If you're not providing the right product how can you expect good sales?

"we are risk averse" ha ha ha so they moaning without even trying, it just sounds pathetic.

In other words, pointless baw because it's not all about the graphics-are-everything development model that has poisoned this whole industry for 10 years. No more easy graphical cash-ins, and it scares companies like THQ to death because they've forgotten how to do things that matter.

Theyre complaining deadly creatures didn't sell?

Well fucknuts you have to advertise to get a game to sell.

I REALLY disagree with your statement.

I've played MANY beautiful games that are better than comparable games on wii

its not about graphics, its about new experiences.  wii users want new experiences.  its not like wii fit woulda sold worse if it was in hd 1080p.

i just got ea active, and i actually liked some of its graphics (water effects are nice in the in line skating)

Oh darn, I should have wasted money on Deadly Creatures...

Wii Fit would have sold far less on a 1080p console. In fact, I can tell you exactly how much it would have sold: zero. No game like that would ever be allowed on the current HD consoles, because it doesn't fit the 3G (Graphics-Gore-Gazongas) formula that their developers espouse and their consoles allow for. You've played prettier games on those, sure, but better? How can they be, when they offer nothing new over the games you played ten years ago but a new skin with a marginally sharper picture?

THQ makes crappy games regardless, but he does have a good point. It's a nightmare for third parties.

Translation: "The Wii isn't a snowball console that let's developers release mediocre games that ride the tide of more popular games' momentum."

THQ, the Wii indeed does have a crap load of issues and its demographic is in fact a nightmare for third party developers, but when you actually start turning a profit on the HD consoles or do anything successfully this generation then you can act like the Wii is the bitter pill, k thanks.

Aside from Deadly Creatures, a game which scored pretty low amongst fans and the gaming elite, what else "hardcore" did they even try?

They need to shut up and make more Cars games.

Im not setting this to just the wii. when the whole world (okay most devs/ gamers) says something might there be a reason to that
