Wii rakes in most exclusive games |
Ó
Here's an ironic new twist to the console wars: the Wii has taken the lead in having the most exclusive games. Most of the attention from the console wars has been on the Xbox 360 and the PlayStation 3 but adding this to the success of the Wii, Microsoft and Sony might have to rethink their battle plans.
The data for counting comes from Gaming Target and they have a couple of stringent rules that apply to the word "exclusive," but it seems to be an accurate way of qualifying what an exclusive is.
Other pertinent info of the data is that it focuses on North American tallies: titles that are limited to other countries aren't counted. Also, the tallies include unreleased games and timed exclusives.
Taking that all into consideration (and others besides), the Wii has been found to have the most exclusives, having 150 titles to their name. The Xbox 360 has 101 titles and the PS3 has 50. Since March this year the console wars found the 360 as the clear winner but following E3, the Wii took a surprise leap up. More surprises may still be in store once the dust completely settles from E3.

...let the flaming begin. ROFL
I'm sure games like Chicken Shoot, and other beyond horrible games are some of the Wii's counted exclusives so I don't think my PS3 and 360 will be worrying too much. Also I do own a Wii, and also I hardly boot the thing up. Heres to those real exclusives like Eternal Sonata, Uncharted, Mass Effect, and Ratchet and Clank. I'll tip my hat to Nintendo when Reggie admits his online sucks worse than Dreamcast's.
But how many are games other really want.. o boy i can't get wii sports or some dumb little kiddie game. Lets not forget about wii fit. Man i am soo bumbed... (A LOT SARCASM)
The PS3 list is woefully incomplete. There are 103 games available or coming for it in the U.S. alone: http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?t=858296
100 horrible exclusive won't add up to 1 good exclusive.
and i don't really care about its games and to me all their exclusives are worthless. but i'm giving props to nintendo and how they are doing in this war... more exclusives are good news for wii owners (regardless of the fact that it is well known that Nintedo really relies on 1st party games and that is not new and it is comparatively a lot easier to make games on the wii)... still it gives the vastly growing install base a good library to choose from... the only thing stopping the wii right now is nintendo itself... if they can find better ways to fill the demand then the wii would really run away... their sales is really a reflection of how many wiis they can produce and market... i don't think Nintendo was even halfway prepared for this console war... but they are adjusting to the situation and cranking up more games is a proof of that.
How many games are on both the PS3 and 360 but leaving the Wii out? It seems like a lot to me.
Eternal Sonata isn't exclusive, it's for the PS3-60
Chocobo's Dungeon: The City of Forgotten Time Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Crystal Bearers Mario Kart Wii Mario Strikers Charged Metroid Prime 3: Corruption Project H.A.M.M.E.R. Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles Soul Calibur Legends Super Smash Bros. Brawl Super Mario Galaxy Tramua Center: New Blood Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games Dragon Quest Swords: The Masked Queen and the Tower of Mirrors I mean, of course the Sony and Microsoft fanboys will say "oh those are all kiddy sucky games" but most people think these are really nice games. Sure it lacks Halo and Ripping heads off with Heavenly Swords but for the rest of us non-ultra hardcore it looks nice.
According to Wikipedia, Gamespot, and IGN, it is 360 exclusive. Whereabouts did you hear otherwise?
Try the ESRB rating website, or Kotaku... better yet just type in "Eternal Sonata for PS3" in the search engine. They'll be plenty of website.
Just like you said, they are just nice games... not even worth spotlighting it. I guess the Wii would fit into the easygoing demographics. Why is it even compared to the hardcore consoles.

ESRB took Eternal Sonata off of their website, but before they took it off, the PS3 and 360 was in it's platform list. Might have been an error but there's still no final confirmation yet.
Wii is like a rub on tattoo in a tattoo parlor shop. everyone knows its there, and everyone knows its cheap, but no one really wants to get one because they suck. Where as a true tattooee will get a REAL tattoo, and the kids will get the rub on. Thats basically what nintendo and their Wii is in the market today, a rub on tattoo in the sea of real tattoos.
way to ignore the actually substance of the post guys...
Of course they're going to have so much more exclusives. Their platform uses the wii mote technology and the other consoles are more traditional. However most of their games are "party" games and use the same gimmicks and moves over and over. "swing you're mote in circles to toss [insert object], move you're mote up and down to pump [insert object], shake you're mote down to right to throw [insert]" most in a collection of mini games like Ray, Monkey Ball, etc.
It´s stupid, it look like children talking who have the best bike, ***** with this, i don´t know why consoles blogs like this are posting *****s like that, back in the time, remember the Mega Drive and Snes, who in that time knew about how much consoles are sold? - nobody, just the companies, we want games, just this, games and homebrews, all console are good, who want buy a X360 go there and purchase that, who want a ps3 or wii, go ... we have to fight for good games and freedom with homebrew just this, let the companies fight with who is the best or winning the race, that constest have one winner, the consumer ... so pls STOP WITH THIS BULL***** FAN CONSOLE WAR IT´S STUPID AND COMPANIES DON´T CARE ABOUT IT !!! CONSOLE COMPANIES NEED TO SHOW US MORE GREAT GAMES, BECAUSE AT THE MOMENT CREATIVE ARE RARE, ALL OTHERS ARE PORTS, FPS, OR CAR RACE NEW VERSIONS THAT WE SEE IN OTHER PLATAFORMS AND GENERATION, WHERE IS THE LONG LENGHT RPGS? - IF COMPANIES WANT MAKE PORTS, SO GO ON, JUMP IN AND MAKE PORTS LIKE SAM AND MAX TO X360, PS3 AND WII, NO RAVING RABBITS 2 THE 1 IS ENOUGH, AGAIN CLAIM FOR GAMES FORGET THE FAN WAR, WE PAID TOO MUCH FOR FLAMING AT FORUM AND COMMENTS ON BLOGS OR SITES ... STOP THE FAN CONSOLE WAR (CONSUMER) !!!!!!!!!!!!! THE WORLD HAVE TOO MUCH WARS TO START A NEW FIGHTING, WITH WORDS BUT IT´S A WAR. COMPANIES, IF YOU WANT SELL YOUR CONSOLES BETTER, CALL THE SOFTWARE COMPANIES AND TELL WHY THE CONSOLES ARE NOT SELLING HOW YOU LIKE, FUN, FUN, FUN, IT´S WHAT SELL SNES AND GENESIS AND IT´S WHAT THE NEW CONSOLE GENERATION NEED MORE FUN WITH FULL RESOLUTION GRAPHICS, DON´T CAME WITH 720P, OR THE POOR UPSCALING OF MY X360, WII SELL A LOT, RIGHT, OK, BUT WHO BUY? - ISN´T JUST YOUNG PPL, IS OLD PPL TOO, I LIKE WII TOO, BUT WHO HAVE THIS LIKE ME NOW THAT THE GAMES ARE FUN BUT SOME GAMES ARE STUPID, SOMETIMES THE WIIMOTE MOVE ARE SLOW TO THE GAME, LIKE CALL OF DUTY, AND PS3 CAMON WHERE IS THE GAMES? - WHERE IS THE CLASSICS IN NEW HD VERSION? - WHERE IS THE EXCLUSIVES? - I HAVE THE ALL NEW GENERATION CONSOLES AND NEED TO TELL ALL THEM HAVE NEGATIVES AND POSITIVES, SO AGAIN, CLAIM THE GAMES, NOT THE CONSOLE WAR IT´S THE BIGGEST BULL***** THAT I SEE IN MY LIFE, DON´T BE STUPID ... STOP THE FAN WAR !!!! STOP THE FAN WAR !!!! STOP THE FAN WAR !!!! STOP THE FAN WAR !!!! STOP THE FAN WAR !!!! STOP THE FAN WAR !!!! STOP THE FAN WAR !!!! STOP THE FAN WAR !!!! STOP THE FAN WAR !!!! STOP THE FAN WAR !!!! STOP THE FAN WAR !!!!
This list is stupid if PC ports don't remove the exlusivity label (why do I need an XBOX360 if I have a good PC) and if PS2 ports on Wii count as exclusive games (since they are cross-generational).
Wii also ranks #1 with most POINTLESS exclusives. Hmm
Wii's exclusives will be trash. The only good ones will be games that were released 20 years ago. (Mario, Zelda, Smash, Metroid). I don't want to play "brain fart" or "train your dog to poop outside" type games. I want MGS4, Halo 3, R6Vegas, Tekken 6, FF13, etc... Wii can have its exclusives, it can even sell the best for all I care. As long as we keep getting hardcore games for PS3/360, I can keep allowing my Wii to collect dust for being a waste of money that it is.
how do you know the wii games are going to be crap? have you played every game that will be released on the wii? well have you? thought not.
So Metroid Prime and Super Smash Bros. aren't hardcore? Have you even completed Metroid Prime? I bet you've only unlocked one character in SSB as well. These two games are way harder than Gears of War, for a start; a supposedly "hardcore" game.
putting the wii in the nextgen catagory is retarded any comparisons are just as stupid of course the wii has more xclusives the other 2 arnt going to have those crapy grahics on there system its like saying well NES has the bigest library of games right now
yep ps3 and 360 got better games than they wii the wii ain't got no onine games but pokemon who the f*ck wanna play pokemon online
yep ps3 and 360 got better games than they wii the wii ain't got no onine games but pokemon who the f*ck wanna play pokemon online
If we just look at the games right now, we find the X360 with alot of 'hardcore' games (this is mostly because of the fact that it was released 1 year b4 the other two consoles). The PS3 has Resistance, and the Wii has Zelda. With that kind of info I think its safe to say that the 360 is still #1 by a long shot (for now). Why brag about a game that WILL come out on a console you own? Just buy a console once it HAS enough 'hardcore' games on it. An early bought console is usually filled with problems (hardware-wise), so waiting for the problems to be ironed out b4 buying seems like the right way to go, plus it'll probably have a price drop by then. Simple as that. This whole article about Wii having most exclusives is stupid cause its just makes a bunch of fanboys fight over the most retarded things. I bet my comment will be replied with alot of "Well the (insert_console) also has (insert_exclusive) you noob, making my console #1" nonsense. I'm a Nintendo fan (to an extent), but I can see that the "Good" games are still on the 360. Deal with it for now.
Great post with a great sense ... right in all aspects good pointed ...
the wii has mario soccer, MOHH, tiger woods, madden, and [[okemmon
Why is it that 'everyone' loves the wii so much? that may not be the case cause hardcore gamers (like myself) is what made the ps2 sell so well last generation, but the fact is that their are MORE casual gamers (if they can even be called that) than their is hardcore gamers. i mean anyone that thinks bejeweled is a 'challenging' game will not buy a 360 or a PS3 but will go to the wii anyday cause its cheap and they dont have the dedication or the skill to play a game like Halo, God of war or Devil may cry 3, so in my opinion that Nintendo is kicking us hardcore gamers who were here since mario first came out on NES in the balls and is going to make a quick buck and screwing us all over! sure its 'fun' but is it hardcore? can you feel accomplished beating a game that your ten yearold sister that NEVER liked games can finish without a gameover taunting her within the first five hours of gameplay? Nintendo wants to force US the gamer to revert back to their 'simple is fun' style and forces the game publishers to stop working to make games cutting edge and intense and go to wii and make a f*cking party game! if the wii wins the console war what will happen when games stop being made for the other consoles? it whould be like the PSone never exisited to compete with the Nintendo64 and evolve hardcore gaming industry. I am a PS3 fan and DAMN proud of it, i've been down about the mistakes Sony have made since they launched the PS3 but I stuck with them since the psone and ps2 and now they are fixing their problems and moving foward, next year will be a great year for the PS3, i like the 360 now but not a fan, I bought a microsoft product for the fact that as for as console first person shooting goes, the xbox360 has it owned for the time being and the first to the market strategy is the reason why (Halo3 dosent have Killzone to compare to this year) I whould hope they whould just admit that their 360 have a problem and fix it BEFORE anyone has to buy it only to have it show the Red Ring of Death within the first year, my 360 hasent died yet but I whould hate to be forced to wait three weeks just to resume playing games, having a job makes it hard to fully put yourself into gaming like the good old days when I was a kid and had all the time in the world. I have to keep a open mind when I buy games but as for now the wii just seem to be getting us hardcore gamers NOWHERE Also........ why does it ALWAYS look like PS users are the first to 'defect' to another console when times get rough? what the F*uck is up with that!? Nintendo fans stay for life it seems and Xbot fans seem to do the same regardless of paying for xbox live service each and every year, i'm ashamed to think people can think us fans can be so fickle when it comes to sony.
metroid prime isnt hardcore unless youre talking about the original. and super smash bros? HA, please tell me youre being sarcastic. i know video games were around before you were even born, but just...kids these days, complete idiots.
Go play SSBM against bots on the hardest setting and try to get just one kill. Then go play pros and come back and tell me how fast you got destroyed. And then tell me it isn't a hardcore game. I'm a big GoW fan, and even I'll tell you any SSB game is wayyyy harder. People who think they know what they're talking about these days, complete idiots.
Hardcore, casual, "kiddie". Names. It's all they are. It's not a console war. It's fanboys vs. reasonable human beings. Fanboys, grow up. I was a Nintendo fanboy when I was 11. I've moved on. Are you still 9? Don't think so. If you prefer one system to another based on its game library and features, that's different. Just don't say stuff like "OMG WII PWNS U ALLLLLL111!!!!!!" or "ps3 iz fer reel gamrz". Drop that *****. Nobody wants to hear it and no one will listen to you. The only people who care are other crusade-minded people like yourselves. Do us a favor, and MOVE ON. There's better things to do with life than to ***** how Ps3 is inferior to Xbox360 or Wii or some ***** like that. Maybe PLAY a game instead of arguing about how good or bad the CONSOLE, not even the damn GAMES developed and published for it, is.
I cant believe u said that Chocobo's Dungeon: The City of Forgotten Time was a really nice game.... man that was a good one!!!
they may have the most exclusives but they also have the worst BY FAR
ur a stupid person man. u know that there are more wii exclusives worth looking at than before. Metroid 3 is one of them. stop *****in *****.]Also nintendo just released their online service. u think it can compare to 5 years of xbox live? dont spread ***** on the internet. that goes for all of you who dis a console that hasnt been out as long as the other. (ps3 n wii haven't been out as long as 360) damn yall asses
