You, I and they dont know that unless they try and thats what i am saying, give it atleast 1 serious try and if the game doesnt lack anything and is a serious effort with the advertisement that should go with said effort then we will know but untill then they need to stop bitching about their sales on the Wii and point the finger at only Nintendo games sell, of course Nintendo games sell they have been doing this with serious effort for 30 years now and people now that a game from Nintendo will likely be of best quality possible, even if you dont like their games you still know they are made with the best quality possible meanwhile 3rd parties have during the years collected the opposite reputation on Nintendo consoles.

So youre argueing for the principle that these companies release products they dont owe you for a system that dont deem as viable to their business plan like its a charity?

Yeah youre right, im just bored and have been drinking mountain dew and smoking hookah so im all cracked out and hyper. haha.

This thread is

HD vs Wii

lol


If Wii owners bought more serious games then maybe they would put more games on the System, lets say if CoD flopped on 360 and barely broke a million sold after 4 years you think they would make a sequel and loose more money?

Hell no they would put it on the system it sells best on, just like RTS sell best on PC you cant expect more RTS to come to 360.

1. That's time. The userbase overlap could not possibly account for the lower sales, as even if it was the majority, that's still less people than even the 360 version.

2. That's just in case you decide to later.

"So youre argueing for the principle that these companies release products they dont owe you for a system that dont deem as viable to their business plan like its a charity?"

No, it is viable. I just demand they (and even you) realize that and support the Wii accordingly. Monster Hunter 3 proves those games can work on the Wii, becaujse the game is one of the most graphically intense of the system, which, if all the casual game audience talk was true, should be a flop.

The actual demand for charity is from those demanding developers, third party, Sony, Microsoft, and even Nintendo, make nothing by big, expensive games just to please those people, even though the sales haven't grown enough (Assassins Creed is not the rule for HD game sales). I demand sensibility here.

The last 1st party game I bought was Wii Fit, 90% of my game library is 3rd party, if that gives you an idea on my stand.

@lord and the other "Wiibits"

you are asking the orange tree for apples. the thing is, even if the orange tree were to bear apples for you, they will be something not quite the apples from the apple tree. Right now there's a huge crowd enjoying their oranges, if they were ever to become interested in apples, really REALLY interested in apples, do you think they will settle for the lesser-apples the orange tree would produce for them? No, of course not, they would take a stroll to the apple tree and eat real apples.

"If Wii owners bought more serious games then maybe they would put more games on the System"

No More Heroes is a serious game, and Suda's biggest hit.

Madworld could have been serious, but three to six hours and no replay value just makes it all flash and little substance.

Call of Duty is still selling, despite the breakthrough game of the series coming late and with no hype.

"you are asking the orange tree for apples"

God, it's the same "HD games are special" myth. They aren't special, not when the emphasis is on graphics. Those are just shinier apples.

so MONSTER HUNTER 3 sold less than a 1/3 of what it has sold on the PSP. Even more if you check the current japanese charts Monster Hunter PSP is currently outselling Monster Hunter 3 and the reason for that is that the PSP version provides an unique experience that the WII cannot replicate.

So a game 2+ years old is selling more than the latest iteration, as I said before japanese gamers like Monster Hunter on the PSP because it allows them to play together whenever and wherever they want and thats something the console Monster Hunter cannot replicate and is made pathetic by comparison.

So  an unique experience that cannot be replicated by a console = portable game success.

Bad Example WII Fighter.
