the revolution report

See nintendo made it's mind at e3 2006, they were about to make a revolution.

Their goal was to deliver a cheap to produce hardware (boosted gamecube, http://gizmodo.com/gadgets/home-entertainment/miyamoto-says-the-wii-is-basically-a-gamecube-205275.php ), with a revolutionary controller.

One of the strategy to push units, without pointing the appealing price point, was exclusive games, not the famous xbox-limited-exclusive-kind-of. Because of their hardware and mostly their controller, developers would have something new to work with, new gameplays, unachievable on other platforms.

But, it was meant to be accessible to everybody, casual...

So developers have put their "best" workforce to push those revolutionary games

It seems that only nintendo knows how to do good games on their own platform.

Developers are not putting real efforts on the wii, they seems to seak easy money, thin development risks with the machine.

Look at ubisoft's average scores for last year :

Ubisoft is probably the major who supports the most the wii, and they score 65%... they're even way behind ea which gave a small support to the wii last year, remember boogie?... yeah it didn't score high

So, should nintendo only stick to software making or it's ok that way, after all it's a business right ?

Is the wii a fast food like console ?

We'll see, after all it's only been a year, maybe it's not that alarming...
