Re: EA: Nintendo Needs to Drop Wii Price, Help Third Parties

iwiica

I think it is natural that their own IP has a higher priority than the 3rd party content. And I also think they are not in charge for advertising a specific game if they don't want. But what I expect from them is providing a good platform, and this is definitely not the case with they download games services.

Just look at the WiiWare... low awareness, poor implementation, impossible to make updates or adjust the prize, no special offers, no bundles, direct competition with virtual console games (porting a classic game and developing a completely new game. cmon.. there should exist two different prize segments for this), and lot of more... If this continues like this, I can imagine that lot of developers are going to jump off..

Btw... I believe even if all 3rd party jump off, they can continue with the business.
Most of the Wiis out there are anyway a WiiFit-Machine or a WiiSports-Machine. Virtual Console TOP20 is almost Nintendo-only.

So, why should they care about crybabies like EA and poor indie devs like us?

Thanks for honoring our work TLink9. We are a small team and we invested a big portion of our private savings to polish on it until the bitter end. Now it is up to gamers to decide if it is fun or not.
US release is coming soon (waiting for the go at Nintendo). Stay tuned!
