More games? I know the Wii's got a great line up coming, but it's not quite like what the PS3's got.blurb1324well the wii will have some good first party games, that will sell well regardless the question is whether Nintendo can lock up some solid 3rd party support like sony did last generation and is continuing to do

BIZ: Can you name a few things about Nintendo and Microsoft that they may have done a better job at than Sony and a few things where perhaps they could improve and learn from Sony?
Â
PH: Both companies clearly have great strengths and they've both done some wonderful things in their respective fields. What could they learn from us? I think Nintendo, although I am very respectful of the innovation in Wii, and I think everybody should be respectful of it, I'm not sure that it has the technology base to propel that platform in the long-term. So I think their platform lifecycle is inherently going to be shorter, so they could have learned from us in terms of the high technology approach.
Â
Microsoft's approach I think is far too built around a single game IP, one IP, and they could learn the benefits of a killer catalog rather than a killer application. And having the broad software support in multiple genres, in multiple categories, in multiple age groups is what really propels a platform for the long-term. So I think those are the differences that we see between the platforms.

That seems to me to be an extremely reasonable thing to say, about competitors. I don't see it really as bashing in anyway. Of course his statements are arguable, but it is also opinionized

Of course his statements are arguable, but it is also opinionized I like to see PS3 on the other foot.The games is the main issue. I don't want to sound fanboyish but I'm sure most would agree the Wii does need more "top quality" games if you will. They're getting SMG, SSBB, Super Paper Mario, MP3 but they need a few more.Wow, those are pretty much all Mario games ...i see what u mean
There's a big drought too right after Super Paper Mario which is a little worrying.

maybe they should run mario galaxies on a 360 like sony ran DMC4 on a 360 at TGS.
Sony franchises that have gone Wii: Dragon Quest(exclusively), Manhunt 2, Devil Kings, Resident Evil:UC, and Resident Evil 5, Guitar Hero (2008), Prince of Persia.Â
