Too many third-party developers take exactly this approach with their multiplatform games, a fact that doesn't necessarily better or worsen the experiences on the similarly powerful PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, but unfortunately one that does usually degrade ports to Wii. You end up with exactly the same title, except it's uglier -- hardly appealing to your average Nintendo fan. That's why smart publishers have started to create ground-up software for Wii, which is, incidentally, the most popular current-generation system in the world. Of course, not every original effort is a masterpiece, but generally, games designed to take advantage of Wii's strengths while considering its weaknesses oftentimes prove to be the cream of the software crop. Take, for example, a third-party console exclusive like Zack & Wiki and compare that to your average port, such as the low-rated Alone in the Dark. You can spot the gaps in quality at a glance.
