“Proof that the Nintendo Wii is beginning to attract serious attention from developers and publishers keen to target the console’s millions of core gamers is Rainbow Studios and THQ’s Deadly Creatures”

Wii’s core gamers aren’t into this type of thing. Wii’s core gamers prefer Wii Sports, Mario & Sonic at the Olympics and Wii Play. Which incidentally are currently still the 3 top selling games on the system… (At least in Europe anyway)

@ Xbot:
This comment truly reflects the intelligence of most 360 users.
1 x 0.5 = 1.5

Good job

Boom Blox
Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles
Winning Eleven

Hahahahahahaha, just like game cube, what will kill the wii is the lack of third party games.

its truly the game cube times 0.5.

wii = game cube 1.5

@ raymond, if players want endless FPS and games headed by beefed up, bald-headed marines, then the Wii isn’t for them. If you want the fun that We Ski, Deca Sports, Boom Blox and de Blob will bring… alongside core games such as FFCC, Deadly Creatures, Tales etc… then, perhaps it is. Whatever floats your boat.

@Zap

The intro paragraph reads that the list only includes non-Nintendo developed games that are exclusive to the Nintendo Wii. I’d let PES slide since its so different to the other builds… so I guess that’s where there isn’t any Rock Band, Okami, Star Wars, LEGO etc, etc. I think it’s a fair list, with the types of games (or in-game controls) that you won’t get on other consoles.

I dunno really. The press surrounding the Wii (on the enthusiast side of things at least) is extremely negative and poor lists like this aren’t helping. If people truly believe that this is all Wii owners have to look forward to, then I can understand where all the hatred is coming from. But alas, it is not.

Also, I wouldn’t put Rock Band up there, as that is a port.

@raymond: And still we forgot Rock Band…that just makes me wonder how could they forget so many games

By: raymond

@ZaP: Ack! I forgot about those!

Opoona should go there too.

How could you leave out Fatal Frame 4, Oboro Muramasa Youtouden, and Rygar?

By: ZaP

ZaP — Wed, 26 Mar 2008 21:45:18 +0000

Especially if you could include Okami/Fragile/Tales of Symphonia instead

When ‘Deca Sports’ and ‘Major Minor’s Majestic March’ are in a top 10 list, things are not good.
