Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Will 2010 Be the Best Year for Wii, or will it fall apart?

I still have hope that 2010 will be a good year for 3rd parties, maybe less games but better ones. By the way anyone knows whether The Force Unleashed 2 will be on wii?

I think 2010 might be the year the hardcore take a second look at the system. It's lineup seems pretty geared towards them (Galaxy 2, Other M, Zelda M+, MHtri, S&P2, TatsuCap, NMH2, Red Steel 2, ARF, Shiren 3, etc, etc).

I don't think actual console owners and players are the problem.  Many people who consider themselves 'hardcore' already own the system.  Most of the people I know, heck a large majority of the people on this site own an HD console and a Wii.  Its more about convincing the 'press' and the Third Parties to make games for the Wii.  Some of those games you mentioned are a start, but they're hardly going to compare to what people are getting on the HD consoles (aside from the Nintendo Internal titles and possibly Monster Hunter Tri).  The sad thing is, the Wii is turning into a heavily funded and well supported Dreamcast.  Its got all these niche and cool games, but everyone is overlooking it for the 'cool' systems that are getting the bigger, flashier games.

While part of that may be true, I really don't see Wii becoming another "Dreamcast".  Just because DC ended the way it did doesn't mean Wii will.



All I know is that this year I get Endless Ocean 2, Super Mario Galaxy 2, Zelda Wii, & Epic Mickey. Add that to the games I already have and 2010 will be amazing

I didn't mean it will die like the Dreamcast did.  I meant its support and the types of games its getting are similar.
