D-FENS said: I don't think the problem is that third party games don't sell on Wii, it's that good third party games don't sell as well as they should. Cheap shovelware makes a better profit on the system selling only a little less than big budget titles that bleed out at the bottom of the charts.
How many times do we have to say "why didn't 'game X' sell moar!?!" before people realize that there is, in fact, a trend, and not some vast HD-Wing conspiracy? |
Elaborate. Please.

Seconding the "elaborate, please." Please provide a list of these "big-budget titles that bleed out at the bottom of the charts" and that deserved to sell, say, a million units or more.
Pre-emptive: Dead Space Extraction (the on-rails prequel to a game not on the Wii that didn't sell spectacularly to begin with, in a genre already oversaturated on the Wii) doesn't count, nor do niche games like Little King Story that wouldn't have sold well on any system.
"'Casual games' are something the 'Game Industry' invented to explain away the Wii success instead of actually listening or looking at what Nintendo did. There is no 'casual strategy' from Nintendo. 'Accessible strategy', yes, but ‘casual gamers’ is just the 'Game Industry''s polite way of saying what they feel: 'retarded gamers'."
