And this here is why we won't really see many 'Hardcore HD motion controlled' games, according to Malstrom.

(I edited your post a bit so I could read it more easilly)

The above is so not true.

Option 6. Use the free Wiimote + libraries to add motion controls cheaply to your game. It cant cost much if the cheapest Wii games cost less than a 2,500,000 and only part of the cost is due to the interface.

Option 7. Deciding that now that the Wii doesn't have a monopoly on motion controls that developing on the Wii is 'boring' and games like Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 should be HD exclusive just so your developers have time to play around with the fun new interfaces.

Option 8. Invent a fun new excuse to not work on the Wii.

Option 9. Figure out how theres a similarity between a pointer and a mouse, if theres a similarity then the pointer may be able to replace a mouse.

Option 10. Use the knowledge gained from inflicting crappy games on the Wii audience, seemingly in an intentional effort to keep it from achieving its >>>60% market share manifest destiny to make good games on the HD consoles since you've passed the learning curve already.

Option 11. Take the budget for adding motion support from the Wii port. After all they keep telling you that Wii games are cheap to make.

Option 12. Realise that you only make innovative games, not cookie cutter efforts. Use that to justify using Natal because its so much different. Don't answer any emails about why you spoke out against the Wiimote interface and refused to make Wii games.

Option 13-

Do all above as Squilliam posted, then complain to the press about why your company ain't making a third of profit Nintendo is.

Then watch Capcom pillage your chances because there the only ones with a full effort third party game on the system. Say it was fad and keep losing money.

Go Bankrupt and sell off like Midway. Community rejoices.

wow he's so pathetic

WE HAVE BEEN UNHAPPY all this gen?

PS360 combined have more AAA games than any platform EVER!

Really, Darth? the PS2 with 63 begs to differ.

So does the PC... but it's a platform witha really long history and isn't a console, so don't it's kinda irrrelevant.

PS3/360 are a pathetic, sad joke compared to the PS2. Also, some of these are multiplat PS3/360 titles... the PS2 has them too, of course, but still... it rapes the PS3 and 360.

@xen

I just said that, I didn't know how many PS2 had (lol)

but the point is clear PS360 have more AAA combined than the console with motion on it, so how were hardcore gamers "sad/unhappy"

His arrogance blinds him

Agree with you about malstrom, haha. There's some sense there, but it's too hate drowned.

Yeah. Luckily Nintendo doesn't need Malstrom's rants to pwn this gen. But luckily for competitors too, despite Malstrom's rants, Nintendo created a brand new market, it didn't disrupt the old one. Wii is winning easily and can reach total sales higher than PS2, but it's winning with a market share lower than what PS2 managed to get and competitors are getting larger slices of the pie than what PS2 left to XB, GC and DC.

Overall I agree with Squilliam.  But option 9... NO!!!! *runs around screaming with his head on fire*

Ahem.  God no. In principle the pointer could be the same as a mouse, but in reality there are alot of stability issues (im talking about keeping the pointer steady).  Sure there are gonna be a segment of gamers who excell at the point and shoot FPS and will take the top slots, but most gamers require the stability of the mouse.

Honestly I'm beginning to agree with your post from a couple days ago about Natal being used outside of games.  I want to see a real AI though, that chatbot trotted out at E3 is shit.  I've done better when I was in high school.

If the gaming industry was happy with the PS3 and 360, why are they only selling 100K a week?  Why have they only combined for less than 53 million after more than three years?  Don't kid yourself the AAA's mean nothing, if not for the Wii, the industry would be collapsing right before your eyes
