Actually, it looks like the Wii will be it. It will have such a big install base as it can not be ignored. I'm optimistic about what Bio could do on the Wii.

and so more and more companies are starting to realise that HD game production takes too much resources and time to survive and will make serious efforts of bringing quality titles to "safer" platforms like the Wii
I would love to see a Neverwinter Nights kind of RPG using the Wiimote as a mouse pointer |

LOL at miiiguel!
No developers can ignore DS and Wii, PSP seem to be doing well and will be a worth considering doing business for as well. X360 is easy to develop for due to cross platformability with PC, mainly the multi processing set up to take care of and then PS3 is the next step in the complexity and most devs now using to devoping and sharing resources for both X360/PS3 from PC anyway. Most businesses NOW cannot afford not do multi platforms, that is the future. PS3 is just one of them, whereas in the past at one time PS2 WAS the future which business live or die by. |

Imagine a point and click, isometric rpg from bioware again on the wii. To be honest , baldur's gate and bg2 on the wii would be pretty cool, if the controls were tweaked and you could pause to do stuff still. Maybe thats just me tho.

Yes, keep on making fun of Wii and party games, while the next half of 2008 and 2009 will see your favorite development team make serious Wii exclusives. :)
And I higly disagree a good Bioware RPG needs to be on a HD console, a Neverwinter Nights or Baldur's Gate (with 3D graphics) style RPG with Wiimote controls can be just as good. It's not state of the art graphics that create immersiveness, it's the setting, story, dialogues and interesting NPC's that create it. Fallout 2 is an excellent example of this, to this day there aren't many RPG's that surpasses it immersiveness, even though the graphics can be considered a bit primitive.

Why do people keep slagging off the wii? I mean it has graphics comparable to the last generation and in the last generation Knights of the Old republic, Jade empire, Final Fantasy X and XII, Halo, Zelda WW, Strangers Wrath, Beyond good and evil, psychonauts, project gotham 2, forza motorsport, I could go on, and these were some of the best and most immersive games of all time. The wii is obviously capable of producing these types of games its just a perception that the people buying wii would not go in for these types of games. I think they are wrong.

True. Those casual gamers are really going to buy into role playing games. After all they are easily accessible, can be played for a short time every now and then and are perfect for when one has company around. Also I think there isn't a sports game yet that one can control with a motion input device, or maybe even some kind of a fitness game with a board to stand on. Think of the possibilities!
