I really like this thread as a whole. I like to remain optimistic, and still am, but the wall speaks truths deeper than any words really can. I really feel that comparing the Wii Wall-O-Shame against GameCube (previous Nintendo gen), PS2 (previous market leader) or PS3/360 (current console competition), the Wii's line-up would be unfavorable. I really think that there are lot of negative implications on game publishers and casual buyers that I had not considered before reading this thread (I'm a casual forum-goer, so I haven't read other threads where this has been discussed). The good thing for you-and-I, we're not casual buyers. We know to check out reviews to see what's good and what's not before considering a purchase. Also, even if there's an astonishingly higher percentage of bad games than ever before, I think there's still enough fun games for any reasonable gamer.
Here's what I've got from the wall:
UbiSoft
No More Heroes
NitroBike (I kind of regret buying this one)
Activision
Marvel Ultimate Alliance
Guitar Hero III
Guitar Hero: Aerosmith
Electronic Arts
Boom Blox
Beatles Rock Band
THQ
de Blob
Sega
The Conduit
Capcom
Resident Evil 4: Wii Edition
Zak & Wiki: Quest for Barbaros' Treasure
Zoo Games, Majesco, Konami, Take-Two, Namco-Bandai, Square-Enix
none
That's eleven games off the wall of shame... that I bought.
I also have bought some third party games not on the "wall."
Other Publishers
Pinball Hall of Fame: Williams Collection (Crave Entertainment)
Geometry Wars: Galaxies (Sierra)
Ghostbusters: The Video Game (Atari)
I did the math, and comparing my GameCube and Wii libraries. GameCube was 58% third party; Wii is currently 60% third party. So, I'm still buying a similar ratio of 1st to 3rd party games. There's just also a lot more bad games that I'm not buying (bad or just don't appeal to me).
I don't expect things to change much this generation. It's been 3 and 1/4 years since the Wii first came out. We could expect that the Wii's healthy life cycle is more than half finished. Chances are, a year or two from now, the Wii store shelves still won't be third party gaming heaven. I accept it and I'm fine with it. I'll just keep buying the excellent games that get released.
Games from the Wall that I'm interested in/might buy
Dead Space: Extraction
Tiger Woods: PGA Tour '10
A Boy and His Blob
Tatsunoko vs Capcom
Monster Hunter Tri
Additionally, although I don't own it, I beat Dragon Quest: Swords with a friend. Then, later, I borrowed it and played through it again. (I also intend to buy Dragon Quest X when it comes out.)
Anyhow, I conclude that the Wii is a strange phenomenon with regard to third parties. I, however, find there to be enough games to keep me busy.
