Wii Developer Support Drops in 2010

A report from Gamasutra today has shown some surprising, and somewhat disappointing news.  In a survey of over 800 different game developers support for Nintendo’s home console is going to drop significantly in 2010.  Last year, according to the report, 42% of developers released some form of software on Wii.  That same survey says that in 2010 only 30% of developers plan on releasing new products for Wii.  Many of those developers cited a softening of the Wii market.

What does this mean for the future of Wii and Nintendo?  No one is really sure at the moment.  The system still sells more on a monthly basis than any platform out there.  At this point only time will tell.

    Judging by the efforts of third parties, the Wii market has always been soft– even before it came out.
