Have all the Recent Wii Game Annoucements changed anybody's mind?

Is this for people that don't/didn't want a Wii?Nintendo_Ownes7

No.  It simply depicts the slow and terrible poison that has started sinking into the veins of Nintendo and its fans.  The poison could remain the same or grow worse (depending on how further Wii penetrates the mainstream market).

Quite frankly, the lineup looks like the shallow simplistic trash that I've grown to expect with the Wii.  And the trash will only grow more stinky, if it changes at all.

A few titles and nothing on the level of Spore, Crysis, Halo 3, MGS4, Little Big Planet, or Mass Effect?

 THIS is supposed to change our minds?

Those titles you mention didn't save the gamecube from its fate, also why should anyone compare the Wii with the DS?

I've yet to see one decent refutation of the principles that I have listed.  Remember, I harbor no original bias towards any developer or consoler manufactuerer in this industry.  I simply offer the amount of praise (or criticism) a company deserves.

I'm sorry if Nintendo fans so ensnared within the marketing icons that Nintendo has created that they fail to see how terribly low their standards have become (and the fact that Nintendo is offering them a vastly inferior product at an inflated price, using a mission statement that contradictions the very progression and nature of the gaming industry).

It hasn't changed my mind about anything. I still see next to nothing that I want to play on the system.Ryeferd

Actually this has not changed my mind at all on the Wii (in terms of 3rd party support I guess is the Question)........I mean none of these games are ground-breaking, or on the level of say Crysis, Halo, Mass Effect, MGS4, FFXIII, etc.....

It's up to you to prove your case, really.  Prove the manufacturing costs are incredibly low and that reviews are artificially inflated because of what you claim.  You can't.

Who cares about sales?  I've never cared about sales, I've cared about quality, if the Wii gets millions of sales with games that are about on par in terms of quality with bulletproof, what do actual gamers care?  I owned a GC last gen, bought a PC recently, and am now playing through the PS2's catalog of awesome games.  Quality>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Quanitity

I didn't know winning was simply a matter of sales, if the PS2 had no games worth playing would you still have said it won?

Yeah, it's really hard to pick apart reasons a system "wins"........you kinda have to look at all the factors as a whole and not individually.

I think more need to be announced to convince others that third parties are really on board.karicha9

The only convincing anyone should need are the Japanese sales numbers. Any publisher that wants to sell any home console games in Japan is going to have to release Wii games. Xbox 360 is not relevant and PS3 is going completely GameCube. DS ate PS2's software sales. The strongest Sony platform in Japan right now and for the forseeable future is the PSP, which will always be a distant second to the DS, especially where software sales are concerned. DS: PSP is 3:1 in hardware but 6:1 in software in that region.

In short, Nintendo has the software market of the entire Japanese region under their thumb in much the way that Sony did with their PlayStation at the start of the last generation. Moreso, actually, because the Gameboy brand was stronger in software then than the PSP is now.

Wii is *still* supply constrained. It's shattered expectations. At the current rate of production and sales the userbase will be unstoppably viable within months. Microsoft has lowered their shipment forecast and Nintendo is working to increase production. Wii will be the global leader well before the start of the end-of-year holidays.

"New" Wii games? :D

PS2 ports and they are better on PS2 (see latest Metal Slug Antology review for PS2 and Wii)

It got so many worthwhile games because of the sales.  Publishers go where the customers are. 

Have all the Recent Wii Game Annoucements changed anybody's mind about the possibility of the Wii winning this gen? Just to recap in the last several weeks, it's been announced that a sequel to NiGHTS is coming, Sega will be collaborating with Nintendo on Sonic & Mario sports title, EA unveiled their plans to do a rhythm game called Boogie, Capcom announced that in addition to an exclusive Wii RE game (Umbrella Chronicles) that they will be doing a remake of Resident Evil 4, a new Guitar Hero game for the Wii is on the way, and the ultra violent Manhunt 2 will also be going to the Wii.

Thoughts?Zerostatic0

1. Nights is a right direction for Wii and Nintendo.
2. The  Sonic  & Mario game is likely to be a Party Game. NO THANKS
3. Rhythm games or any Dance Dance type game hold no interest to me and many Core gamers
4. RE: UC is another right direction for Wii and Nintendo
5. RE4: Wiimote = No thanks = played the game to death on both GC and PS2
6. Guitar Hero is multiplatform
7. The original Manhunt sucks, I don't see the sequel as significantly different.

these are the only new games that interest me right now, but these go along side the amazing looking lineup of games that already got me to buy a Wii so YAY:P
