I see that conveniently SEGA's words mean something now.
I'm starting to get weary of all of this.

No, because it's not a game in first place. Is just a bunch of exercises with the appearance of a videogame to give them a context.
You can have fun doing spinning, freerunning, Karate or whatever, still is not a videogame, there is not an element of escapism or a test of ability. It's just a metagame firmly established in reality.
I propose Nintendo their next big thing: Wii Study. A virtual teacher will give you lessons in different academic fields and will examine you, evaluating your progress. I'm sure it will be a great "videogame" and sell millions.

I didn't know the DS could handle this type of game gameplay and graphics wise on the DS. maybe on the PS2 if it was downgraded. Luckily for us, some developers would rather make the game they want to make instead of making a side game and putting it on the Wii and DS just to make a quick buck.
Thank god for FF13 being on the PS3 instead of the DS :lol

Well, so far the Wii has the best selling SRPG this gen.

There was no other choice really when those games released. It's like asking why Soul Calibur and PowerStone were DC exclusives in 1999.klee123 said:
I've no clue why TIM hasn't seen a PS3 release in some form since though, outside the (very questionable) rumors about SCEI rejecting it.

I assume you do know there is ski and ski jump games, along with a monkeyball clone and stuff. And if you don't I assume someone has brought up to you in these 6 pages that WiiFit also has games apart from the physic exercises it's gonna be sold for.
I guess bitterness never gets old.
A DS Valkria would need to be basically redone ground up in 2D and the TPS mechanics would need a major revisioning or even replacing. It'd be an almost different game entirely, I'd agree... but I don't think a DS Valkyria SRPG is an alltogether unattractive proscept either.sakuragi said:
I like how you suddenly transformed 'PS2' to 'Wii' for the quick buck part though. Keep fighting the good fight. :lol

Hey you guys should play some Battalion Wars.
Sure "Valkyria Chronicles" has Fire Emblem-like custom characters and story, but it also shares some of Battalion Wars' gameplay. Minus the animu themes though.
Play it sometime.

Yeah, because you can totally compare the quality and the fanbase of Fire Emblem to the one of Disgaea.
jarrod said:
I'd say MS may have locked up TIM as an exclusive, just like how they kept Ace Combat 6 from going to the PS3(they even stated during TGS last year that the 360 is the only system to have AC6).
Sega is also a company known to make exclusive games for a system too, I mean look at all of those exclusive Sega X-box games from last gen.

Oh i'm just fine with Wii being a pit of the same old Nintendo games and casual-fest of Carnival Games, Brain Training, Wiifitting and Petz.
It's when that shit starts taking over the other two consoles that things will start hitting the fans. That's what has some people worried.
Acosta said:
Define game... because just stating that wii fit is not already a game because its fun is not an explanation why wii fit is not a game.. its only a critique to the assumption "Wii fit is a game because its fun"
your argumentation still lacks just as the argumentation you criticize... games and fun are not mutually exclusive

they already did it.. its called big brain academy wii degree

Hey, would you be kind enough to define the bolded?
I've been playing videogames for almost 30 years. Some have included: Pong, Pac Man, Super Mario, King's Quest, and Phantasy Star. These have enough differences in design, content and goal to allow the inclusion of WiiFit.
Unless of course you have a working definition of videogame and non-game that can refute this.
Acosta said:
So why is Sony spending resources that could be spent on proper hardcore true real videogames?

IIRC, Donny or Joshua numbers showed that Fire Emblem : Radiant Dawn on Wii sold considerably more than Path or Radiance on Gamecube, and it's already looking for Disgaea 3 to sell moderately less than Disgaea 1 or 2 (with no chance in hell of getting anywhere near Radiant Dawn's sales).
I'll admit I would rather see Disgaea 3 do well (I don't want Nippon Icchi going out of business!) but I don't share the same strong feelings for this title, only I hope for continued SRPG games in this aspect. And btw, looking forward to Disgaea _____ DS!

Sorry, don´t understand the first part. About second, big brain academy is just an evolution of Brain Training. My proposal was more academic (given this notion of everything is valid for being called a videogame as far as you include some interactive entertainment sightly related to a real activity).
Whatever, I am not going to discuss it anymore. I am just a random guy from the Internet expressing an opinion, is not that important. If some of you want to disagree or throw rotten tomatoes to me, be my guest.

Didn't Disgaea 3 sold similar numbers to the first Disgaea tho? I mean considering the userbase difference between the PS2 and the PS3, it's not too bad.

No, it's Nintendo that does the killing this gen. Killing the industry.
And the guy quoted in the op is bitter since Wiifit has diminished his chances of making a killing on his upcoming title.
Meanwhile a thousand Gaf warriors descend upon one another in vain, only so that a single survivor can earn Kutaragis praise.

what i meant was
you are right when you say
the assumption that everything that is fun is a game is wrong...
and you did back up your opinion with solid examples (eating fun might be fun.. its not a game)
but yet again.. that does not mean that your statement is proving that wii fit is not a game..
given his game isn't even *playable* on the platform that wii fit is on, he's not really put his game in a position to legitimately compete with fit.
as a percentage of the console-owning population, dual-console ownership percentages are still tiny.
there are a lot of reasons that a stylized srpg isn't going to sell gangbusters on the ps3, but fit is pretty far down the list.
i do wish his game well... it might be the first released ps3 game for which i actually wish i had a ps3 to play.

In a way I think you're right, but in a way I think the Wii is selling to mostly a one-time audience. Yes, the younger demographic that is attracted to the Wii will progress to the next generation of Nintendo (or Sony or MS) consoles as they seek deeper experiences. But the people buying Wii only for Wii Sports or things like Wii Fit are not the type of consumers that are going to go "Oh, Super Wii is coming out - I must get in line to get one" because the experience that they are attracted to on the Wii is not going to fundamentally change.
