Reggie: We Won't Meet Wii Fit Demand, Third-Party Devs Suck

November 19, 2008 in News comments 3

Reggie Fils-Aime is interviewed and tells that the Wii Fit demand will not be met (I don't think it is in demand much anymore), he also says that third party devs need to up their game. I agree, less shovelware is good!

Later on in that very same interview, Reggie expressed a bit of disdain towards third party developers and their inability to release a good game for the system:

"I will be able to say our licensees 'get it' when their very best content is on our platform. And with very few exceptions today, that's not the case."

While the initial reaction would be to get irritated with Nintendo and their continued refusal inability to meet demand, I find that as this enters the third year in a row with this crap, I've started to not care.

But at least I'll be able to find a Wii this year. Hopefully.

    Just want to say, Wii Fit is selling more per month now than when it was released, so yeah, demand still exists.

    Well, then do something about it! Here's an idea, only approve good games OR (if you can't do that) let 3rd party developers only release 5 games a year. Sound familiar?

    Yeah, I agree with you Big A2. Along with that, they should tell the 3rd parties to up their game so that they can realease aweome games at small limits.
