Wii Software \ Wii worry

Im not a Sony fan but at the moment the ps2 is still killing everything else even though its last gen.
I love the wii but Im getting a little concerned about the software lineup for this year. We really need more 1st party titles from nintendo that are built from the ground up for the wii.
My concern is that we are going to get too many 3rd party titles that are ported over from other consoles with the controls just slapped on. We need more hard core games to keep us gamers interested as well and not just party games which can tend to get a bit stale after a while.
The Wii has great potential but if developers just use it to make a quick buck with half hearted games the novelty will wear off pretty quick and we will end up with another Gamecube.The Wii needs good multiplayer online play to keep the interest going as that is where the xbox 360 is really kicking ass at the moment. Not just swapping stuff with elebits. Hopefully Metroid will do it and do it well and that game could lead the way for others to follow.

I don't think we can worry to much until the next gen war is well and truly started. The PS2 is still doing well and will continue to do so until the ps3 is well into swing and releases begin to dry up.

I personally am waiting to see how the major three consoles are doing next year. By then they should all have a substantial library and more consumer interest.

The Wii is off to a good head start, sales have gone through the roof. Logically you would think this would promote developer interest, but we will wait and see. But with releases like SSBB, Mario Galaxy, Metroid 3 and others backing up the Wii library in 2008, it's going to be a force to be reckoned with.

We just need to give the next gen war some time. Game library's are always a bit sparse in the first year.

I want Xbox360 too since I don't have many friends to play party games on Wii. I think 3rd party games are as good as Nintendo's just wait.

ffx-2 was a spin off, so I don't really consider it a true FF game. It was OK, a bit girly. Still trying to get my estrogen levels down from playing it.

I really liked playing Starfox Assault I think if they made another Starfox Multiplayer games for Wii it would also be good fun with friends that you could play for days or if it went online.
