Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Why does the Wii have the weakest library?

On a less inflammatory topic, is there some pattern between the games in yellow? I don't see it.

This is invisible text!

most of the hd games arent on the wii, plus graphics gives extra 10 pts rating cuz most reviewers are graphic whores.



It has the weakest core gamer library. But hey, if you want the games the Wii offers then quite frankly the other two systems suck at what the Wii does best more than the Wii sucks at Core gaming.



Tease.

I'm tempted to make a parody of this thread. :hmm:

Naw, too lazy. There are much easier ways to troll the super duper h4rdc0r3 g4m3rz.

Ah.

Wow, the PS3 got more 90+ titles in 2009 than 2006, 2007 and 2008 combined.

It still lacks quality third party games on the scale it deserves.

Also there are a significant number of recent Wii releases that have fallen just under 90%



Nice troll!



In the wilderness we go alone with our new knowledge and strength.

@ Diaros - it's probably due to your own personal enjoyment of a certain few genres, as well as your preference for either single player or online multiplayer, coupled with the fact that these aspects are shared by the vast majority of game reviewers.

Likes and dislikes are very subjective, for example, of those 90+ rated games, I only enjoy

PS3
2 Uncharted 2: Among Thieves 2009 96
3 LittleBigPlanet 2008 95
8 Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots 2008 94
10 Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, The 2007 93
11 Braid 2009 92

360
3 Orange Box, The 2007 96
5 Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, The 2006 94
9 Braid 2008 93
23 Portal: Still Alive 2008 90
24 Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved 2 2008 90

5 apiece for the HD twins although it drops down to 4 apiece if I owned both of course. Now the Wii (this will obviously be games that I DO own)

1 Super Mario Galaxy 2007 97
2 Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, The 2006 95
3 World of Goo 2008 94
4 Super Smash Bros. Brawl 2008 93
6 Metroid Prime Trilogy 2009 91
7 Resident Evil 4 Wii Edition 2007 91
9 Metroid Prime 3: Corruption 2007 9

And I do plan to buy Okami if I see it for a decent price

Also, where's your data from? If it's metacritic, it's outdated

1. Wii: Metroid Prime Trilogy (2009) 91
Nintendo

For example



Well that is a subjective thing, irregardless of Metacritic or Gamerankings scores. Evidence of this, is my opinion that the Wii not only has better games than the HD consoles so far, but actually twice as many. :D That is of course excluding multiplats that I get on the PC.
