You’d think the 3rd party suppliers would at least be courting the console manufacturer with the most sales on some games.  But no.  There are a few bright spots (Ghostbusters is slated for a June 16 release date), but all in all the Wii’s near future looks to be dismal (see the images below for the gory details). 

Is it just PS3 envy on my part, or did the brass at Nintendo piss off the president of Capcom again?  What the hell?  Maybe this is all part of the “Economic Stimulus Package” we’ve heard so much about.  To play Street Fighter 4 or Resident evil 5 you can either buy one system for $499 or another that has a laundry list of issues including rendering your disks unplayable (http://xbox-360-problems-fix.blogspot.com/), which requires the user to purchase a new system.   Funny, I don’t feel stimulated….
