in the next couple of years it has to work on balancing games out, theres too many mini game ones that constantly use the wiimote to as far as it can go. but there really should be others that act as a normal console game so that everyone has a bit of everything. Thats just my thoughts, however right now i think they are making a good move by showing off what it really can do at launch, rather than bringing games in at the start that just don't utilize the wiimotes capabilities

I think they need to go back to the future... lots of fun 2d nes style games and maybe some snes birds eye role players. 3d is cool and motion sensor is state of the art but i think something cool and traditional like super mario..maybe a New super mario wii addition could be a winner... i think they can do well if they dont try too hard

More simplistic fun games would do the trick.

Mel, SPOT ON.......

It wouldn't make any sense to push the "family" aspect of the Wii so hard, then abandon it over the following months and year. The balance must be found, and not forgotten.

They need an even mix. Some games for the hard core crowd, make sure they get the online experience right. As well as party games for those who only want that sort of experience.

20 years on .... and its still cool to rip out the old super mario / duck hunt and play for hours and hours on end...even though its been done played through conquored and all that. Mario 64 yeah still fun but not the same.

paper mario is awesome, i think its really creative!

but there should be games out that dont use the wiimote completely so it can feel like a normal game for the normal-game-lovers out there, it just makes the wii appeal to wider audience if it does.

I think that they are making "mini game" games to make new buyers become more familiar with the controller and what it can do, as it is a new idea that no other console company begun yet. In time I think we should start to see more and more variety in games after people get familiar with the controllers.
