YO: SEGA decided this when realizing that the features of the Wii hardware were very different from PS3 and Xbox 360 in all senses. |
I'll bet. I'm glad they realised that and made a new game, Secret rings looks to be a great game. It'll need to prop the Wii up for a bit, since Excite Truck has already been doing it's job. It's a bit of a shame that almost all 3rd party developers seem to go the way of minigames in their Wii titles (Rayman was a minigame). I wonder if the Wii will be able to get more titles like TP soon, rather than games with a large minigame section attached, like Moneyball. _________________

I'm still not convinced about the need to chuck mini-games in with all of the games for Wii. Hopefully they will turn out to enhance Sonic, like the mini games in Mario 64 DS and NSMB. _________________
