BWii Developer on lazy Wii games. December 1, 2007

Tancred Dyke-Wells, Creative director at the UK based company Kuju, who are developing Nintendo’s Battalion Wars 2 says “There are “a lot of lazy titles” on the Wii and developers are “under-exploiting” Nintendo’s console”
In an interview with VideoGamer.com he says “despite the fact that the Wii is more powerful than the GameCube “by a factor of two”, third party titles “really don’t take full advantage of the machine”. This is the major complaints from wii gamers, despite the fact that the wii is more powerful the the gamecube it continues to to recieve PS2 ports with developers taking the easy way out and not bothering to improve the wii version graphics. This is even worse for some of the exclusive wii games that have graphics the PS2 would be ashamed of.
He also stated that Kuju have been “running the juice out of the Wii with Battalion Wars 2, it is working on a number of secret projects that are continuing to advance the graphical standards it has already achieved and that there is room to do more”.
Could be the begining of 3rd party devlopers admitting they’re being lazy with games? and start to put the effore gamers want to see into wii games rather than taking the easy PS2 ports.

I hate how they port a $20 PS2 game to the wii, add ‘Point and Click Menus!’ and charge $50.

Sometimes they don’t even have pointer support for menus and stuff.
