We also have a new WiiWare service launching that will allow us to buy games designed for the Wii online.....similar to Xbox's Live Marketplace or the PS Store. There have been multiple recent reports from devs who are at loggerheads with what they deem is MS being too greedy and overcharging for royalties....

...Nintendo has been trying to woo them with promises of even bigger slices of the pie if they come over to the Wii and start developing form WiiWare instead.
Coupled with the idea that development of games will be cheaper and easier too, the responses have so far been positive.
Full Story here.
We already have a few games announced too.....Pokemon Ranch, Star Soldier R and Final Fantasy, and the site is already live for Japan.
Conclusion
I could go on and on about ALL the other aspects of the Wii, but suffice it to say I think the main areas above are ALL doing really well wrt the Wii and it can only get better for 2008 and beyond
.
So what do you think? Have we have a poor, average or good year for the Wii? Do you think it will get better in 2008 and beyond?
