I’m just worried that developers will look at the financial viability of their games and switch from making big interesting games for the Xbox and PS3, to complete fluff for the Wii. Why spend 3 years making a game for a small profit when you can develop something with a fraction of the team, in a fraction of the time, and sell 10x the copies.

I would have thought that the market would be saturated with enough crap by now that said crap would stop appearing on the charts. Then up jumps Hasbro Family Game Night.

I have no issue with people wasting their money, but if it starts to affect the hardcore gaming arena then I’ll get angry
