Analyst: Wii “inhospitable” for third parties
Posted on 16 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 0 comments
“We continue to believe that the Wii is a relatively inhospitable platform for third-party publishers. The Wii version of Madden 09 sold 79 percent less units than the PS3 version and 87 percent less units than the 360 version, despite a larger console installed base and an improved Metacritic rating.” – Doug Creutz, analyst
In some cases, third-party titles have sold rather poorly on the Wii. On the other hand, there have been games such as Guitar Hero which have performed amazingly well in the market. I think it’s all a matter of who the audience is that owns the Wii. In general, Nintendo system owners have not been known for purchasing Madden titles when the results are compared to other platforms.

Nintendo skipping E for All this year

“Nintendo has chosen not to participate in E for All, as it did not fit into our plans for the year. We wish the participants and show organizers good luck with the event.” – Nintendo statement
This actually comes as a huge surprise, mainly because Nintendo put in a pretty big show last year. I am curious to know if there are any additional events (public or not) that Nintendo has planned for the remainder of 2008.
