So will third parties ever decide to invest in the Wii? Most third parties say "well we want to make a game for that system becasue a lot of people own that system and we want a lot of people to be able to play our game." So if that is really the driving force behind why third parties are investing in making great games for a system why don't they do it for the Wii? The Wii is apperently outselling the PS3 and i constantly see third parties making huge investments for upcoming PS3 games. So why not the Wii? LightsaberBlues

To answer your question, because, they can put little effort into a sub-par game and still have it sell well. Why put tons of effort into a potentially great game when you can make a game that takes little effort that will outsell a potentially great game? Again, this comes down to nintendo's new demographic, they will buy anything with cool box art.

I'm definitely not buying it. $160 is absurd for a gimped PS2 port. I'd rather spend my money on three, quality games, rather than one, crippled game.

Perhaps one day i will not be in the minority on this subject but I just can't bring myself to believe that the Wii isn't capable of a great third party game. Or am I of the impression that Nintendo isn't capable of creating great games that don't star mario or zelda. Nintendo could be taking more risks in the type of games it's making too as well as looking to outside sources to try and fill in the huge gaps in the Wii library (adventure/RPGs/shooters/action)since it seems to not want to touch those types of games. It could be a match made in heaven (Eternal Darkness) or in hell (Giest) but if Nintendo doesn't want to do something themselves about the problem and third parties are too afraid to risk trying something new all you can expect in the future is disapointment. I love Nintendo. I've grown up with Nintendo and will continue to be a Nintendo advocate but sometimes the truth hurts and this is one of those times. Boy does it sting!LightsaberBlues

I agree. I don't know why so many people defend the quality of third party games here. The truth is that the wii has a new demographic which has greatly attracted sub-par games. Hopefully developers will soon realize that they cannot survive on these sub-par, non-games any longer.

You DO need to actually play a game in order to have a valid opinion about its quality.

Jaysonguy

Unless you're talking about it in a technical sense.

If a reviewer comes on and says there are frame rate issues or one out of ever 20 times the game locks up when saving do you really need to play the game to make a judgement on them?

True but, the technical atributes are not the only factor that goes into determining a games 'quailty' (for an individual). In order to fully experience a game (story, gameplay and controls, technical aspects, design, etc.) you need to have actually played it, AND, In order to have a valid opinion about the games 'quality' (there's that word again) you need to have fully experienced the game.

Quality is subjective

You are correct and that is why I said "...goes into determining a games 'quality' (for an individual)".

You dont need to play a game to see that its crap. By watching gameplay videos, reading reviews etc. you can get a hang of how the game is. I bought the game and I'll tell you, its bad. There are so many flaws in the game.GameOverKayo

No, I believe you are wrong. You DO need to actually play a game in order to have a valid opinion about its quality. Now, seeing that you have played it, thats fine if you think its 'crap', thats your opinion. But, it is not fine for someone to judge a game without playing it, as shadimoscouplo did.

I am not sure if this is a 'known' technique but, I thought I'd post it anyway. I guess its just a simple wall jump. I have only tested it with Falco, Wolf and Mario and I am pretty sure it is only possible on Final Destination because of the weird shaped lip. Like I said in the description for the video, this is a great technique to use to get away from your opponents attacks while edgeguarding.

For example, if you are playing a doubles match and you hit one guy off the stage, go to guard the edge and the other player comes over and tries to attack you but just wall jump and you can avoid his attack and still maintain your position to edgeguard the person you knocked off the stage.

Anyway, heres the video:

Here's an example of a specfic use for the wall jump on FD
