Although the Wii’s been nothing short of a phenomenal success the world over, it appears as though developers are still fairly hesitant about developing games for it.
The reasoning being is that a few Japanese development houses see the Wii as nothing less than a fad – something that won’t actually stand the test of time sales-wise, and don’t want to waste precious financial resources developing for it.
“The Wii is like the ‘Billy’s Boot Camp’ weight-loss program on DVD. People bought it out of curiosity, and it’s likely a lot of them haven’t used it”.
– An unnamed Nikkei developer
