no more heroes only did well overseas and overall sold relatively low for what it is.

By overseas do you mean places not America?

by overseas i meant europe (should've specified that) and yes...not america.

Ok, just making sure before I said this part lol

No More Heroes is selling best in America (NA region) followed not even closely by the other two regions.

American Wii's have 180,000 copies of the game while the other two region only make up for 90,000 (5 in one and 4 in another)

Now I believe you're thinking of where it was said that they hoped to sell more copies in Europe HERE. Sadly that wasn't true and most of the copies are still on game shelves.

In a lot of ways it's understandable. No More Heroes, while a good game, isn't pushing any boundaries besides letting people know that glitchy, bug riddled games can be made for the Wii, that's not news to anyone. It's the story that is the seller and some people just aren't willing to put up with the entire package for that story.

Well the wii doesnt have a hard drive to fix such mishaps like bugs and glitches etc.. i think suda could've went a lot farther with NMH and did better with the graphics and the lifeless city because the art design for the game was amazing and I truly like the controls more than the storyline. the controls/gameplay were advertised more than the storyline so what you're saying is completely flawed.

Again with the "they don't have the genre/game I'm looking for so they must not have anything"

I swear you people, it's like you walk into a supermarket filled with food and because they don't carry the kind of 18 grain bread you like you say they don't have anything to eat.

I dont know know if you have seen me on here, but I openly support and buy the few good third party games. Coupled with nintendo's titles my library for wii is vast. Still I stand by my belief that Wii does not have a suffiecient library of third party games.

By who's standards though?

A system can't have everything in every genre all at once, it can however have a ton of titles that just about anyone can pick from and enjoy and that's what the Wii has.

It's got racing, fighting, FPS, sports, puzzle, action, sim, platforming etc all for the taking. Now is everyone going to like all the games that are there? Of course not but this is where the argument ends.

If there's quality games that a certain user doesn't want to play that doesn't mean there's not games.

Theres no way you can say Wii has the same quality of third party games that is seen on 360.

People really don't buy the Wii for third party titles, hell, look at all the top games ever for Nintendo consoles - who are they developed by?

It has a lack of proper 3rd party support. For some reason Wii seems to struggle here. If Wii can eventually overcome it, then it will be unstoppable. radicalplace

There are plenty of good 3rd party games. Here are some suggestions from my own collection:

Resident Evil 4: Wii Edition

Nights: Journey Of Dreams

Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles

Mercury Meltdown Revolution

Manhunt 2

No More Heroes

Pinball Hall Of Fame: The Williams Collection

The House Of The Dead 2 and 3: Return

Ghost Squad

SSX Blur

Sonic And The Secret Rings

I also hear that Bully, Zach and Wiki and Okami are rather good. Also, there are plenty of non-exclusive 3rd party games that are worth picking up as well. The Wii has plenty of good 3rd party support in every genre. It may not have 800 titles to choose from, but it's only been out for a year and a half.

while i really dont see wii having enough third party support its still alot better than what haters say. There are some great games out there.

People say they buy Nintendo systems for Nintendo games. If you ctually want to fix that notion and have a more complete set get the good games on the system not just Nintendo games.
